Now Bahá’u’lláh has appeared, the divine teachings and
admonitions have been unveiled, the call of the oneness of humanity has been
sounded, the banner of the kingdom of peace is flying, and the tabernacle of
love and harmony amongst all mankind has been raised in the very heart of the
world and is summoning all people. And yet again some ignorant souls imagine
that these divine teachings are without foundation and regard their own
imaginations as lofty thoughts. But before long it will become manifest that
what He has proclaimed is sound, proven, and compelling, and that all other
thoughts are vain and idle.
