e Will of God liveth in manifest error. Amity and rectitude of conduct,
rather than dissension and mischief, are the marks of true faith.

Proclaim unto men what He, Who speaketh the truth and is the Bearer of the
Trust of God, hath bidden thee observe. My glory be with thee, O thou that
callest upon My name, whose eyes are directed towards My court, and whose
tongue uttereth the praise of thy Lord, the Beneficent.

the grasp, of the governors of human society. This is the wish of God and
His decree.... We cherish the hope that one of the kings of the earth
will, for the sake of God, arise for the triumph of this wronged, this
oppressed peo
