The day is approaching when God will have, by an act of His
Will, raised up a race of men the nature of which is inscrutable to all save
God, the All-Powerful, the Self-Subsisting.
- Baha’u’llah (Quoted by Shoghi Effendi in a letter
dated 25 December 1938, published as ‘The Advent of Divine Justice’; also
included in a compilation on ‘A New Race of Men’ prepared by the
Research Department of the Universal House of Justice and attached to a letter
dated 15 September 2013 written on behalf of the Universal House of Justice to
an individual believer)
