om, in these days, is as the sun, a
drop as the ocean. One single breath exhaled in the love of God and for
His service is written down by the Pen of Glory as a princely deed. Were
the virtues of this Day to be recounted, all would be thunderstruck,
except those whom thy Lord hath exempted." "By the righteousness of God!
These are the days in which God hath proved the hearts of the entire
company of His Messengers and Prophets, and beyond them those that stand
guard over His sacred and inviolable Sanctuary, the inmates of the
celestial Pavilion and dwellers of the Tabernacle of Glory." "Should the
greatness of this Day be revealed in its fulness, every man would forsake
a myriad lives in his longing to partake, though it be for one moment, of
its great glory--how much more this world and its corruptible treasures!"
"God the true One is My Witness! This is the Day whereon it is incumbent
upon everyone that seeth to behold, and every ear that hearkeneth to hear,
and every heart that understandeth to perceive, and every tongue that
speaketh to proclaim unto all who are in heaven and on earth, this holy,
this exalted, and all-highest Name." "Say, O men! This is a matchless Day.
Matchless must, likewise, be the tongue that celebrateth the praise of the
Desire of all nations, and matchless the deed that aspireth to be
acceptable in His sight. The whole human race hath longed for this Day,
that perchance it may fulfill that which well beseemeth its station and is
worthy of its destiny."
"Through the movement of Our Pen of Glory We have, at the bidding of the
Omnipotent Ordainer, breathed a new life into every human frame, and
instilled into every word a fresh potency. All created things proclaim the
evidences of this worldwide regeneration." "O people! I swear by the one
true God! This is the Ocean out of which all Seas have proceeded, and with
which every one of them will ultimately be united. From Him all the Suns
have been generated, and unto Him they will all return. Through His
potency the Trees of Divine Revelation have yielded their fruits, every
one of which hath been sent down in the form of a Prophet, bearing a
Message to God's creatures in each of the worlds whose number God, alone,
in His all-encompassing knowledge, can reckon. This He hath accomplished
through the agency of but one Letter of His Word, revealed by His Pen--a
Pen moved by His directing Finger--His Finger itself sustained by the power
of God's Truth.
