Upon them be Baha’u’l-Abha!
He is God!
O ye believers of God and the maid-servants of the Merciful!
From the Graces of His Holiness Baha’u’llah I beg for you
firmness and steadfastness. Today whosoever is a herald of the Covenant is
confirmed and assisted. In these days a number of souls, whose deeds are known
in America as clear as the sun, have arisen in enmity against the Center of the
Covenant. Theirs is the van imagination that they can extinguish the Light of
the Candle of the Covenant. Vain indeed is their thought. The Candle of the
Covenant is like unto the Morning Star which never sets.
In short and a after a journey through Europe and a visit to
the Holy Land, their honors, Mr. Remey and Mr. Latimer, are now returning to
America. I send them. I am hopeful that from the Bestowals of His Holiness
Baha’u’llah, they may become confirmed and assisted in the diffusion of the
Fragrances of God.
Upon ye be Baha’u’l-Abha!
