The purpose of the one true God in manifesting Himself is to
summon all mankind to truthfulness and sincerity, to piety and trustworthiness,
to resignation and submissiveness to the Will of God, to forbearance and
kindliness, to uprightness and wisdom. His object is to array every man with
the mantle of a saintly character, and to adorn him with the ornament of holy
and goodly deeds. - Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of Baha’u’llah’)
