of the True One!
In the day of Christ all nations were expecting that His Holiness Christ
should come from heaven, and He came from heaven, though outwardly He came
from the womb of Mary. Hence, He hath said in the Gospels: "No one shall
ascend to heaven except the one who hath come from heaven." Now all the
people expect Him to come from heaven.
If thou wishest to find the truth, compare the days of the Manifestation
of the Beauty of Abha with the days of Christ; consider this is
identically like that and the same doubts and oppositions are put forth
(by the people).
as to the proofs and arguments of the Beauty of Abha, these are manifest
like the sun. If thou wishest a discerning eye and seekest for a hearing
ear, set thou aside that which thou hast heard from fathers and ancestors,
for such things are imitation--and then seek for the truth with the utmost
attention until the divine confirmation may reach thee and the matter may
be properly disclosed unto thee.
"O thou cup overflowing with the Wine of the Love of..."
O thou cup overflowing with the Wine of the Love of God!
Know, verily, that the doors of the Kingdom are being opened to the East
and West. Verily the people neglected the Name of their Lord after
expectancy of centuries and ages! However, those whose consciences were
pure, whose hearts were sanctified, urge forward thereto and enter therein
through every door with faces shining, hearts and spirits rejoiced. thank
God for this great guidance and mighty gift!
"O thou whose tongue is uttering the Name of God!..."
O thou whose tongue is uttering the Name of God!
Turn wholly unto the Lord of Hosts, "Glorious Station," the Manifest; be
severed from all things, and hold to the robe of the Clement Lord, and
enter into the extended shade, until thy Lord confirmeth thee by the
fragrances of holiness in this promised day, wherein the name of the
Kingdom is celebrated and spread in all regions.
"O thou who art attracted to the Fragrances of God!..."
O thou who art attracted to the Fragrances of God!
Verily, I read thy words of thanksgiving to God, for He hath guided the
beloved of God and His maid-servants to the light of guidance and given
them to drink the cup filled with the wine of the most mighty gift.
Verily, I beseech the Divine Might to strengthen them by the Holy Spirit
in all times and circumstances so that they may be firm in the Cause of
God and steadfast
