Upon them be Baha’u’l-Abha!
He Is God
O ye real friends and beloved maid-servants of God!
Your letter, through the maid-servant of God, Dr. Clock, was received and
perused. Its contents imparted the utmost joy and happiness, for it indicated
your advancement to the Kingdom of God, attraction with the love of God and
supplication and prayer in the Threshold of God.
The friends and maid-servants of the Merciful must render service to the
oneness of the human world and show love and affinity to all the children of
men. They must deal with the utmost devotion, good-will, love and kindness with
all the communities, religions and sects. Their aim and their work must be that
the tree of their existence produce good fruits -- and no fruit is greater than
love and kindness toward all humanity.
His Highness Baha’u’llah addressing the world, says:
"Ye are all the leaves of one tree and the fruits of One branch."
Therefore, the law of relationship, brotherhood, kinship, fatherhood and
motherhood is established and proven among all the families of the human race.
Endeavor ye with all your hearts and souls so that ye may live and act in
accord with these teachings of His Highness Baha’u’llah; to become an asylum to
every oppressed one; to assist and uplift every vanquished one; to be a skilled
physician to every sick one; to bestow a swift healing antidote to every
wounded one; to inspire with confidence every fearful one; to grant tranquility
and composure to every agitated one; to gladden the heart of every depressed
one; to become a salubrious water to every thirsty one; heavenly food to every
hungry one; to become the cause of glory to every fallen one and be charitable
to all the poor ones.
