He is God!
O ye who are attracted to the Beauty of Abhá!
Your letter was received; it indicated that a new union and
harmony is created among those souls. This glad tiding produced a great
happiness and a new hope was seized that perchance the friends of New York, God
willing, may become united and harmonized with the heavenly power. Today the
most beloved and acceptable deed before His Highness, Bahá'u'lláh, is the union
of the friends and the concord of men, and the most unacceptable is difference
and disharmony.
Praise be to God that ye have become assisted with this Most
Great Bounty, that is, unity and harmony, and become the cause of the happiness
of the heart of 'Abdu'l-Bahá.
His Highness, Bahá'u'lláh, said, that if Religion and Faith
become the cause of difference, enmity and hatred, undoubtedly its non-being is
better than its being. Consider ye how
much emphasis He has placed upon love, harmony and affection.
Upon ye he Bahá'u'l-Abhá!
(Signed) 'Abdu'l-Bahá Abbas
