Men have failed to perceive Our purpose
in the references We have made to Divinity and Godhood. Were they to apprehend
it, they would arise from their places, and cry out: “We, verily, ask pardon of
God!” The Seal of the Prophets—may the souls of all else but Him be offered up
for His sake—saith: “Manifold are Our relationships with God. At one time, We
are He Himself, and He is We Ourself. At another He is that He is, and We are
that We are.”
(Baha’u’llah, ‘Epistle
to the Son of the Wolf’)
