Now in this radiant century in which the world of humanity
is being matured it is assured that the Flag of Universal Peace shall become
unfurled and shall wave over all regions of the globe. This is the most great
principle of Baha'u'llah, for the promotion of which all the Bahais are ready
to sacrifice their possessions and their lives.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (From a Tablet to
the Editor of the Christian Commonwealth, London, England, 1913; ‘Star of the
West’, vol. 5, no. 8, August 1, 1914)
