“AT the time of the manifestation of Him Whom God …” |
AT the time of the manifestation of Him Whom God
shall make manifest everyone should be well trained in the
teachings of the Bayán, so that none of the followers may
outwardly cling to the Bayán and thus forfeit their allegiance
unto Him. If anyone does so, the verdict of ‘disbeliever
in God’ shall be passed upon him.
|
I swear by the holy Essence of God, were all in the Bayán
to unite in helping Him Whom God shall make manifest
in the days of His Revelation, not a single soul, nay, not a
created thing would remain on earth that would not gain
admittance into Paradise. Take good heed of yourselves,
for the sum total of the religion of God is but to help Him,
rather than to observe, in the time of His appearance, such
deeds as are prescribed in the Bayán. Should anyone,
however, ere He manifesteth Himself, transgress the
ordinances, were it to the extent of a grain of barley, he
would have trangressed His command.

‘Such is the bounty of God; to whom He will, He giveth
it, and God is the Lord of grace abounding.’
