It is evident that every age in which a Manifestation of God
hath lived is divinely ordained, and may, in a sense, be characterized as God’s
appointed Day. This Day, however, is unique, and is to be distinguished from
those that have preceded it. The designation “Seal of the Prophets” fully
revealeth its high station. The Prophetic Cycle hath, verily, ended. The
Eternal Truth is now come. He hath lifted up the Ensign of Power, and is now
shedding upon the world the unclouded splendor of His Revelation.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
