“I testify before God,” proclaims Bahá’u’lláh, “to the
greatness, the inconceivable greatness of this Revelation. Again and again have
We in most of Our Tablets borne witness to this truth, that mankind may be
roused from its heedlessness.” “In this most mighty Revelation,” He
unequivocally announces, “all the Dispensations of the past have attained their
highest, their final consummation.” “That which hath been made manifest in this
préeminent, this most exalted Revelation, stands unparalleled in the annals of
the past, nor will future ages witness its like.”
- Shoghi Effendi (From a
message dated 8 February 1934, printed as ‘The Dispensation of Baha'u'llah’ in
‘The World Order of Baha'u'llah’)
