The Mormons are a people with high principles and ideals,
and the step spiritually into the Cause is not as difficult for them as for
many others not possessing their faith and devotion. However, the very zeal
with which they serve their own Faith makes it difficult for them to grasp the
greater vision of our Holy Cause. He hopes that Mr. ..., so obviously a devout
Christian, will, through studying the Bahá’í teachings on Christ and the
prophecies in the Bible concerning His Second Coming, and through a study of
the life and spirit of Bahá’u’lláh, come to see that Christ, far from being
lost to Bahá’ís, is enthroned in their hearts more deeply than ever through
recognizing Him in this new Manifestation.
