He hath chosen thee from among those men and women
"who were called".

Preach the Kingdom of God to every man and maid-servant who is waiting the
appearance of His Glorious Kingdom. The lights of guidance shall surely be
spread, even as the morning light spreads over all the regions of the
earth; all the regions of the earth shall be refreshed by the Word of God.

Deliver my longings and greetings to the consolation of thine eye(116),
......, and to thy younger son, ....... Verily I love them both even as a

being may grow through the milk of the love of God, forasmuch as it is the
duty of parents to perfectly and thoroughly train their children.

There are also certain sacred duties on children toward parents, which

(children's) prosperity in this world and the Kingdom depends upon the
good pleasure of parents, and without this they will be in manifest loss.

Send my greetings to ........(117), who is free in this world, but a slave
of God in His Great Kingdom.

nobility. Thanks be to God that that dear servant of God is extremely
patient under the disastrous circumstances, and in the place of

Verily I am pleased with both you and [your husband], and I ask God that
you may find pleasure and ease in another world--for this earthly world is
narrow, dark and frightful, rest cannot be imagined and happiness really
is non-existent, everyone is captured in the net of sorrow, and is day and
night enslaved by the chain of calamity; there is no one who is at all
free or at rest from grief and affliction. Still, as the belie
