By the righteousness of God! These are the days in which God
hath proved the hearts of the entire company of His Messengers and Prophets,
and beyond them those that stand guard over His sacred and inviolable
Sanctuary, the inmates of the celestial Pavilion and dwellers of the Tabernacle
of Glory. How severe, therefore, the test to which they who join partners with
God must needs be subjected! - Baha’u’llah (‘Gleanings from the Writings of
Baha’u’llah’)
