The Bayán is in truth Our conclusive proof for all created things,
and all the peoples of the world are powerless before the revelation of its
verses. It enshrineth the sum total of all the Scriptures, whether of the past
or of the future, even as Thou art the Repository of all Our proofs in this
Day. We cause whomsover We desire to be admitted into the gardens of our most
holy, most sublime Paradise. Thus is divine revelation inaugurated in each
Dispensation at Our behest. We are truly the supreme Ruler. Indeed no religion
shall We ever inaugurate unless it be renewed in the days to come. This is a
promise We solemnly have made. Verily We are supreme over all things...
