THE BAHA’l SACRED WRITINGS flow out from the Two Central Documents of the Baha’i Revelation, the Book of the Covenant of Baha’u’llah (entitled the Kitab-i-Ahd) and the sacred Will and Testament of Abdu’l-Baha’, which is “THE CHARTER” of the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven (see World Order of Baha’u’llah, p. 144). All the other writings and teachings receive their life, their relevance, and their real inner spiritual force, meaning, and sustenance from out the wellspring of these two Most Mighty Documents, forming one single “scroll written (within) on the inside (the Kitab-i-Ahd) and (on the back) on the outside (the Will and Testament of Abdu’l-Baha’), sealed with seven seals” (Rev. 5:1 ISV).
No person can, really in good faith, even consider themselves to be a Baha’i in truth unless they can be said to have first at least read and attempted to understand, let alone believed in and been obedient and faithful to the contents and provisions of these two Documents combined together as One single Scroll. This is something similar to what Jesus said, when he said that “to eat” is to come unto him (understanding the “bread” of the teachings) and that “to drink” (the wine of the Covenant that gives life to the teachings) is to believe! (see John 6:35 KJV).
Abdu’l-Baha’ wrote the Will and Testament in three different parts at three different times. He sealed each of these parts, making three seals. On the back of the envelope where it was stuck down Abdu’l-Baha’ placed three more seals, and then on the front, where it was addressed to “the chosen branch,” he placed the seventh seal. The seven seals are thus on the outside part of this scroll, the Will and Testament of Abdu’l-Baha’, which was found after his passing with the Kitab-i-Ahd, the Book of the Covenant of Baha’u’llah, rolled up within.
The Kitab-i-Ahd and the Will and Testament together comprise the prophesied continuation of the everlasting Covenant given in the Bible because in His Covenant, Baha’u’llah establishes the throne of King David as the Executive Branch of His Universal House of Justice. This everlasting Covenant was begun with Adam, passed down through Abraham and David, and promised by Jesus Christ to be established in the world today, 2000 years since his birth and first appearance. Baha’u’llah is a direct descendent of the exilarchs (the exiled monarchs of King David) who were taken into captivity into Babylon and Persia (‘Iraq and Iran) the land of the birth-place of Baha’u’llah. Through His son Abdu’l-Baha’, the throne-line of David continues down to this present Day.
The Crimson Book: The Book Of The Covenant (Preface)
“Thou hast said, ‘I have made a covenant with my chosen one, I have sworn to David my servant: I will establish your descendants for ever, and build your throne for all generations.’ Selah”
Psalm 89
THE Most Great Law is come, and the Ancient Beauty [Baha’u’llah] ruleth upon the throne of David. Thus hath My Pen spoken that which the histories of bygone ages have related. At this time, however, David crieth aloud and saith: ‘O my loving Lord! Do Thou number me with such as have stood steadfast in Thy Cause, O Thou through Whom the faces have been illumined, and the footsteps have slipped!’
Baha’u’llah, Proclamation, pg. 89

This is the Day, O my Lord, which Thou didst announce unto all mankind as the Day whereon Thou wouldst reveal Thy Self, and shed Thy radiance, and shine brightly over all Thy creatures. Thou hast, moreover, entered into a covenant with them, in Thy Books, and Thy Scriptures, and Thy Scrolls, and Thy Tablets, concerning Him Who is the Day-Spring of Thy Revelation, and hast appointed the Bayán to be the Herald of this Most Great and all-glorious Manifestation, and this most resplendent and most sublime Appearance.1
*********
Thou art the One, O my God and my Ruler, Who hast sent down Thy Book that Thou mayest manifest my Cause, and glorify my Word. Through it Thou didst enter into a Covenant, concerning me, with all that hath been created in Thy realm. Thou seest, O Beloved of the world, how the rebellious among Thy creatures have made of that Covenant a bulwark for themselves, and through it have withdrawn from Thy Beauty, and repudiated Thy signs.2

BEWARE! COVENANT-BREAKERS ARE AMONG US!
Whenever a Promised One of God makes his appearance, the people are either unaware that a Promised One was to come in their time, and/or are confused as to the true interpretation of the prophecies which he claims to fulfill. Thus they turn to their clergies (those corrupters and usurpers of God’s religions) for guidance. These corrupters deflect the seeker from the Promised One for usurpation reasons, with misinformation, disinformation, and downright lies. That is how Jesus got nailed to the cross. The corruptors build the tombs of the prophets and adorn the monuments of the righteous, but reject and persecute those who are sent to them.
The clergy in the Baha’i faith are the corrupters who, without any divine authority, usurped the Baha’i administration. They lied to the believers, telling them that the Guardianship, that is to exist forever, had come to an end. Then, with the threat of expulsion, they forbid them to investigate the matter for themselves, the same as the violators of every previous religion of God have done.
In order to take over the Baha’i administration they violated every provision of the Sacred Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha. These Covenant-breakers then set up a ruling body, created out of the figments of their own imagination–a “headless handless Universal House of Justice (UHJ)”–as found on the back of the Hopi Fire Clan Tablet. This “headless handless body” is alien and in opposition to the plan of God, the continuation of King David’s line of descent seated on the throne of David that is to exist forever. This line of descent is entitled the living Guardian, as delineated in ‘Abdu’l-Baha’s Will and Testament, and is displayed on the front side of the Hopi Tablet.
These descendants, “the Guardians of the Cause of God,” are to guard the Baha’i faith from perversion by being the expounders of the words of God. In order for these corrupters to usurp the divine authority of the faith, they craftily performed a Guardianectomy. They then were able to mislead the Baha’is by giving them misinformation, disinformation and downright lies in the place of the divine guidance assured us in the Will and Testament by the line of descent from Baha’u’llah–the Guardians. To be separated from the Guardian is to be separated from God (Will and Testament, p. 11).
Up until the time of this great perversion of the Baha’i faith, there didn’t seem to be any need for the God-promised establisher of the Kingdom of God. But by the corrupters of the Baha’i revelation and the breaking of Baha’u’llah’s Covenant, separating the Baha’is from their Guardian and thus separating them from God, the advent of the divine establisher of “THE KINGDOM” becomes the central need in the world today.
The Covenant-breakers are very aware that an establisher is prophesied to come in 1963. ‘Abdu’l-Baha explained the fulfillment of Daniel’s prophecy that states: “Blessed is he that waiteth and cometh to the 1335 days.” he “reckoned the fulfillment of Daniel’s prophecy from the date of the beginning [victory] of the Muhammadan era [628 A.D.] 133 + 628 = 1963. “‘Abdu’l-Baha’s tablet makes it clear that this prophecy refers to the one-hundredth anniversary of the Declaration of Baha’u’llah in Baghdad, the year 1963.” The Covenant-breakers, in deflecting their followers from the Promised One, mislead them into believing this refers to their establishing their corrupted version of the Universal House of Justice. But this is very damaging and unacceptable. First of all the Promised One is to establish the KINGDOM, and the Covenant-breakers did away with the Kingdom when they did away with the Guardian and established a headless, kingless Republic instead–a headless kingless body. They separated themselves and their followers from the king seated on the throne of David, entitled the Guardian that is to exist forever. (For the above quotes see Baha’u’llah and the new Era in the chapter “The Prophecies of Baha’u’llah,” subtitled “Coming of the Kingdom of God”).
Besides, ‘Abdu’l-Baha makes it very clear that this establisher is not that “headless handless” UHJ, but a man. In explaining the 11th chapter of the book of Revelation, ‘Abdu’l-Baha tells us in Some Answered Questions (http://page10publishers.com/books-literature.html) that the prophesied “seventh angel is a man qualified with heavenly attributes, who will arise with heavenly qualities and character” and will establish the Kingdom:
“And the seventh angel sounded: and there were voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of the Lord, and His Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.”
‘Abdu’l-Baha explains:
“The seventh angel is a man qualified with heavenly attributes, who will arise, so that the appearance of the Divine manifestation will be proclaimed and diffused…meaning that the Spiritual and everlasting Kingdom will be established (p. 66, 1968 printing; pp. 56-57 in later editions of Some Answered Questions).
WHO IS THE SEVENTH ANGEL? He started his mission in 1963. Do you know him? He is also the prophesied Bahana who has the cornerstone of the Hopi Fire Clan Tablet. He doesn’t come empty-handed, but with proofs. Investigate! INVESTIGATE!
Don’t turn to the Covenant-breakers (those who masquerade under the name of “the Baha’i Faith”). They don’t have the Divine guidance of either a Guardian or the promised One.
Avoid entirely the Covenant-breakers. They are wolves in sheep’s clothing. Outwardly they appear righteous, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves intent upon their prey. Their very breath is rank poison and deadly unto hellfire. They don’t enter the Kingdom themselves and they prevent those who would enter from coming in.
The guidance of the 7th angel (http://entrybytroops.uhj.net) is of the utmost importance for survival. Those who rejected Noah went down in the flood. Those who rejected Moses and Joshua went down in the Red Sea. Those who rejected Jesus and Paul were hacked to pieces by the Roman legions. Today, those who reject the Promised One are for the great catastrophe that is upon us.

The Will and Testament of Abdu’l-Baha’ & Some Answered Questions
*********
Today, the Lord of Hosts is the defender of the Covenant, the forces of the Kingdom protect it, heavenly souls tender their services, and heavenly angels promulgate and spread it broadcast. If it is considered with insight, it will be seen that all the forces of the universe, in the last analysis serve the Covenant. In the future it shall be made evident and manifest. In view of this fact, what can these weak and feeble souls achieve? Hardy plants that are destitute of roots and are deprived of the outpourings of the cloud of mercy will not last. What then may be expected from feeble weeds?
Abdu’l-Baha’, Selections #192
*********
Reflect upon all the writings of Bahá’u’lláh, whether epistles or prayers, and ye shall surely come across a thousand passages wherein Bahá’u’lláh prays: ‘O God! Bring to naught the violators of the Covenant and defeat the oppressors of the Testament.’ ‘He who denieth the Covenant and the Testament is rejected by God, and he who remaineth firm and steadfast therein is favoured at the Threshold of Oneness.’ Such sayings and prayers abound, refer to them and ye shall know.1

In America, in these days, severe winds have surrounded the Lamp of the Covenant, hoping that this brilliant Light may be extinguished, and this Tree of Life may be uprooted. Certain weak, capricious, malicious and ignorant souls have been shaken by the earthquake of hatred, of animosity, have striven to efface the Divine Covenant and Testament, and render the clear water muddy so that in it they might fish. They have arisen against the Center of the Covenant like the people of Bayán who attacked the Blessed Beauty and every moment uttered a calumny. Every day they seek a pretext and secretly arouse doubts, so that the Covenant of Bahá’u’lláh may be completely annihilated in America.2

Glorified art Thou, O Lord my God! I beseech Thee by Thy Name, the Restrainer, to withhold from us the maleficence of Thine adversaries who have disbelieved in Thy testimony, and caviled at Thy beauty. Overpower by Thy Name, the All-Subduing, such as have wronged Thy Previous Manifestation Who hath now appeared invested with Thy title, the All-Glorious. Lay hold, by Thy name, the Chastiser, on them that have treated Thy Cause with scorn, have jested at Thy most mighty utterances, and were hindered 120 from attaining this most exalted station. Enable Thy loved ones, by Thy Name, the Victorious, to prevail against Thine enemies and the infidels among Thy creatures. Rend asunder, by Thy Name, the Cleaver, the veil that hideth the doings of them that have besmirched Thine honor and undermined Thy Faith among Thy people. Bind, by Thy Name, the Restorer, the broken hearts of them that love Thee, and graciously bless them in their affairs. Teach them, by Thy Name, the All-Knowing, the wonders of Thy wisdom, that they may cleave steadfastly to Thy Faith and walk in the ways of Thy pleasure. Keep them safe, by Thy Name, the Withholder, from the tyranny of the oppressor and the wickedness of the evil-doers and the malice of the stirrers of mischief. Shield them, by Thy Name, the Preserver, within the stronghold of Thy might and power, that haply they may be protected from the darts of doubt that are hurled by such as have rebelled against Thee. Sanctify for Thy servants, by Thy Name which Thou hast blessed above all other names, which Thou hast singled out for Thy favor, and by which Thou didst reveal Thy beauty, these days of which the Pen of Thy decree hath distinctly written, and which, according to Thy will and wisdom, have been preordained in Thine irrevocable Tablet. Subject to Thy rule, by Thy Name, the Conqueror, the people of Thy realm, that all may turn towards Thy face and forsake their all for love of Thee and for the sake of Thy pleasure.
Abase Thou, O my Lord, Thine enemies, and lay hold on them with Thy power and might, and let them be stricken by the blast of Thy wrath. Make them taste, O my God, of Thine awful majesty and vengeance, for they have repudiated the truth of the One in Whom they had believed, Who came unto them with Thy signs and Thy clear tokens and the evidences of Thy power and the manifold revelations of Thy might. Gather, then, together Thy loved ones beneath the shadow of the Tree of Thy oneness, and of the Manifestation of the effulgent light of Thy unity.
Thou art, verily, the One Whose power is immense, Whose vengeance is terrible. No God is there beside Thee, the Almighty, the Most Powerful.
