Say: Through this Cause the day-star of testimony hath
dawned, and the luminary of proof hath shed its radiance upon all that dwell on
earth. Fear God, O men of insight, and be not of those who disbelieve in Me.
Take heed lest the word “Prophet” withhold you from this Most Great
Announcement, or any reference to “Vicegerency” debar you from the sovereignty
of Him Who is the Vicegerent of God, which overshadoweth all the worlds. Every
name hath been created by His Word, and every cause is dependent on His
irresistible, His mighty and wondrous Cause. Say: This is the Day of God, the
Day on which naught shall be mentioned save His own Self, the omnipotent
Protector of all worlds. This is the Cause that hath made all your
superstitions and idols to tremble.
- Baha’u’llah (‘The Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
