The Lord of the universe hath never raised up a prophet nor hath He sent down a Book unless He hath established His covenant with all men, calling for their acceptance of the next Revelation and of the next Book; inasmuch as the outpourings of His bounty are ceaseless and without limit. (The Báb, ‘Selections from the Writings of the Báb’; The Compilation of Compilations vol. I, The Covenant)
