In every instance they [the Manifestations of God] have
voiced an utterance that would conform to the requirements of the occasion, and
have ascribed all these declarations to Themselves, declarations ranging from
the realm of Divine Revelation to the realm of creation, and from the domain of
Divinity even unto the domain of earthly existence. Thus it is that whatsoever
be their utterance, whether it pertain to the realm of Divinity, Lordship,
Prophethood, Messengership, Guardianship, Apostleship, or Servitude, all is
true, beyond the shadow of a doubt.
(Baha'u'llah, ‘Gleanings from the
Writings of Baha'u'llah’)
