Let none, in this
Day, hold fast to aught save that which hath been manifested in this
Revelation. Such is the decree of God, aforetime and hereafter—a decree
wherewith the Scriptures of the Messengers of old have been adorned. Such is
the admonition of the Lord, aforetime and hereafter—an admonition wherewith the
preamble to the Book of Life hath been embellished, did ye but perceive it.
Such is the commandment of the Lord, aforetime and hereafter; beware lest ye
choose instead the part of ignominy and abasement.
- Baha’u’llah (‘The
Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
