Prophecy Fulfilled: “And the River was turned to Blood” Kamal 11, 172 B.E. (8/11/2015)

Tuesday, August 11th, 2015

Dear Friends,

What has happened in our New Jerusalem from the years 1996 on August 6th until recently? The Covenant-breakers have attacked the Twin Establishers of the Baha’i Faith, the prophesied Joshua and Zerubbabel–the two witnesses mentioned in Revelation chapter 11–that bear witness to the Reality of the twin Testaments of the Kitab-i-Ahd and the sacred Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha. These attacks have been levied against the person of the living Davidic King (the guardian) in every way imaginable and unimaginable, but God has prevailed against these peoples and “brought forth his servant the Branch” (Zech. 3:8 KJV) in the year 2001 AD. In 2012 he announced his “four corners medicine wheel prophecy” re-activating ‘Abdul-Baha’s Tablets of the Divine Plan. This meant the election of the first US National Council since the violation of the Covenant in 1957-1960, which took place in Ridvan 2015.

Now in the prophesied location of “the Four Corners” (Is. 11: 12) passing through the precise spot of the “four corners” (see map below) God has fulfilled his words in the Book of Revelation: “And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood. And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus. For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy” (Rev. 16:4,5 & 7 KJV) in the Animas River disaster of the Four Corners with such high content of iron (“About 70 percent of your body’s iron is found in the red blood cells of your blood called hemoglobin”) and other heavy metals turning the river to blood and toxic poison:

This disaster has occurred EXACTLY 19 years [one vahid] to the day of the ascension of the Establisher, Knight of Baha’u’llah, Dr. Leland Jensen: August 6th 1996 + 19 years = 2015. [In addition it is exactly 70 years to the day from the dropping of the atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima, the act which fulfilled the “Gourd of Ashes” prophecy given by the Hopi people. 70 years is the prophetic Biblical time cycle given as “a time, two times, and half a time”, where a “time” is calculated as a score which is 20 years.]  It should be kept in my that I gave the date for the Trade Tower 9-11 from the start date of his ascension in 1996 on this very day of August 6: see chart Collapse of the Two Towers: Second Woe – Prophecy Chart. This current “river to blood”: thus fits into the extension of this prophesied time line of the “three woes” in the prophesied Cycle of the Seven Seals I have explained in my firesides, deepenings and table talks that has occurred in time for the prophesied “four blood moon” events (the Tetrad) that takes place in the Guardians 49th year (1966 + 49 years = 2015) and then the jubilee.

1I Second Woe

In my mission it states: “He will lift a signal flag [Divine Standard, Banner of the genealogy of Baha’u’llah http://www.bupc.org/genealogy/genealogy-of-christ.html] for the nations; he will gather Israel’s dispersed people and assemble Judah’s scattered people from “the four corners” [Colorado Plateau] of the earth” (Is. 11:12 Net Bible). The river turning to blood is the signal of the flag of “the blood of the Covenant” being raised in that area and the attack by those whom Baha’u’llah calls “the manifestations of satan” against our efforts [“Michael and his angles fought” Rev. Ch. 12] in the promised area of the four corners that includes all sacred spaces on the Colorado Plateau and Grand Mesa/Chair Mountain area and is the signal for the judgement and defeat of “satan”: “Satan will be released from his prison [Covenant-breakers attack the guardian seated upon King David’s throne (Michael and his angels–see Rev 12 for the 6-66 Injunction)] and will come out to deceive the nations [turn the people away from Michael and his angels] that are at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog [Ez Ch. 38 and 39, Russia will be dragged into this at this time], to gather them for battle [oil battle for control of the Middle East]; their number is like the sand of the sea. And they marched up over the broad plain of “the earth” [they were the ex-followers educated by Dr. Leland–the land–Jensen’s teachings] and surrounded the camp [camp Bahá] of the saints [guardian’s personal home and family] and the beloved city [New JerUSAlem in the Rocky Mountains], but fire came down from heaven [the heaven of prophecy] and consumed them, and the devil [personal individual arch-violators–whose symbol is the dragon–see Rev. 12] who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast [materialists, partiers, drunks, adulterers, deceptive music, false merriment, money-mongers, shopaholics, and drugs (Matt. 24:38, 39)] and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever” (Rev 20:7-10 ESV).

So it is written “and [the two witnesses: Joshua and Zerubbabel] have power over waters to turn them to blood” (Rev. 11: 6 KJV) that ‘Abdu’l-Baha explains this verse in SAQ: “if they wished, they could turn the water of the Nile into blood, so far as the Egyptians and those who denied them were concerned—that is to say, that that which was the cause of their life, through their ignorance and pride, became the cause of their death. So the kingdom, wealth and power of Pharaoh and his people, which were the causes of the life of the nation, became, through their opposition, denial and pride, the cause of death, destruction, dispersion, degradation and poverty. Hence these two witnesses [who have returned and appeared repeatedly in every dispensation with different names in different places] have power to destroy the nations” (‘Abdu’l-Baha, SAQ, Commentary on Rev Ch. 11).

Now I tell you truthfully that these cites and towns all throughout the New Jerusalem in the Rocky Mountains have been peppered with Covenant-breakers and people raised up by myself and Dr. Leland Jensen who have cared nothing for the Baha’i faith at all but only for to save their own lives or increase their own personal power, self prowess and personal gains. They came to the mountains not to become believers in God but to either save their own skins, so to speak or to take the knowledge we have given freely to bunk-up “chair mountain churches” and “survivalist groups” for their own personal aggrandizement and empowerment all in opposition to the Baha’i Faith and the Covenant of Baha’u’llah and the successorship of the throne of King David. Through back-biting, gossip, slander, character assassination, mis-information, disinformation and even down right lies they have sought to attack this Covenant and Baha’i faith and invalidate the blood of over 10,000 Bab’i martyrs and 20,000 Baha’i martyrs by attacking and poisoning the people against these Twin promised ones who have appeared in the United States and back-stabbing their wives and family members, and fellow believers in the Covenant of Baha’u’llah and the sacred Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Baha. “Blood” they have taken and the Revelation states “blood is their due!”

Those of the nations outside of this area all know that we have a 100% track record yet they have suppressed the unfurling of the Divine Banner http://www.bupc.org/genealogy/genealogy-of-christ.html at the 9-11 event and have attempted by diverse means to move against the faith in its livelihood as well as in the material basis of its support–and while the poison spreads further into the Grand Canyon and poisons the water table for many, many peoples for years to come–the guardian and his friends have personally endured against them all in the courts and the civil and secular systems as well as the Arena of Absolute Truth and the Pavilion of the Supreme Reality because the violators have chosen to fight against God Himself and God has prevailed against these people. If only you could read the Book of Revelation (for your very own self) with your own eyes and not through the eyes of your neighbors you would see what is to occur next that is more disastrous than this minor taste of retributions…as one by one the enemies of the Cause of God, Shoghi Effendi explains, are met with that which is Condign: http://uhj.net/condign-punishment.html

What is the mysterious Power of “Michael and his angels” that comes not from money, nor politics, nor prestige, charisma or material backing? Why are all the forces in the universe unable to prevail against it? Why has the Faith grown to now encompass Iran, Bangladesh, India, all of Arabic speaking Islam, the Urdu speaking peoples, India, Syria, Turkey, the Middle East and those in Russia, and the Far East? The more the hounds of personal appetites push against the truth–the brighter the fire of this unquenchable flame! The more they make fun of and attack the true believers in their very own homes, and inner family circles, the more God promises to save the pure of heart and spread the Faith far and wide. Does he do this to see the “unbelievers destroyed”? The Muslim, Christian and Jewish clergies would have you believe so, but the unbeliever is destroyed when he becomes a believer. And the wicked is destroyed when she becomes wise. Thus all shall taste death and become believers and wise souls after their mortal coil is bled dry–but most will believe in this wisdom–if you can call it that, says Paul–a crazy-wisdom (1 Cor. 1:20) that is foolish to the worldly-wise–who are looking into the Kingdom from far, far outside, and are unable to enter the Kingdom as Jesus said “not my will o Lord but thine”–not a threat but a fact–that they lack the capacity to serve that which is “other” than what ‘Abdu’l-Baha calls their “ever insistent self” and these instead fall by the sword of their own appetites into grievous errors–because they would have it NO other way. So the victory belongs to those who have died now (NDE), died away from self and passion, died away from old habits, from their stuck-up orgies, and “a’whoring around after false Guardians” as Dr. Jensen has said. Behold they have “died” and yet live for ever more” now in this life and in the next–but only for those who have seen the VISION, climbed the Mountain, so to speak, been filled with the Spirit, that do not apostasize their faith, but deepen in his loving kindness–“used their intellect to defeat antichrist”–for God so loved the world he sent his only begotten son that we should have life-eternal: and the son gave himself willingly though the masses comprehend him not!

“For it is written: I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will set aside the understanding of the experts. ” (1 Cor. 1:19, Holman’s)

The hour has come in which the “golden censor” (of Positive-Leap 80) is filled with fire (9-11) and burning coals (4-11) from the “altar” and thrown upon the earth. This from the time of Dr. Jensen’s world wide media projection in 1980 and filled now with “fire” in the prophesied time of the jubilee of the tetrad blood moons in our day today.

Like those who loved Jesus–but fell “asleep” (Matt. 26:40) in the garden, those who are wakeful today in this day are those that shall be elevated by God to fulfill this mission to gather the elect from the four corners of the world and be spared the chastisement, that Baha’u’llah states: “We have a fixed time for you, O peoples. If ye fail, at the appointed hour, to turn towards God, He, verily, will lay violent hold on you, and will cause grievous afflictions to assail you from every direction. How severe, indeed, is the chastisement with which your Lord will then chastise you!” (WOB, p. 201).  “And the river shall be turned to BLOOD…

The prophecy of the “Blood river” is one of the greatest disasters ecologically in US history. Its flow down through New Mexico and Arizona is the sign to awaken the native people to the fulfillment of this real vision as we gave the “nine pointed star” back in the 1980s, and Dr. Jensen and his angels delivered the “missing cornerstone” to the Hopi peoples of these areas with the Navaho yet they rejected him and he was denied–but now they give the signal of the cornerstone restored by Grandfather Martin as Dr. Jensen and his angels gave it to them.

These nations will accept the Divine Banner and it shall be hoisted in their midst to all the people of the world.

 

THE RIVER TUNING TO BLOOD IS THE SIGNAL.

 

The Covenant and the Manifestations are the foundation of civilization: as civilization if founded upon the spiritual qualities and attributes of God such as love, justice, honor, trustworthiness, mercy, humility, etc. We cannot have a society or any group activities without these basic qualities of co-operation and mutual respect!  As these spiritual qualities and attributes emanate from the personal reality of God himself and are established as his image within creation in the appearance of the divine manifestations of God these are the glue of any group cohesion and effort. The attack on these 9 and the separation from the root of these Divine Revelators of progressive civilization is the downfall of society and the havoc (collapse) of the financial booty of war for the greedy and small minded. The greedy oil people and corrupt leaders of our cultures have either abandoned all hope or gone against this living spirit of Christ and thus we have the absence of these qualities in war, pestilence, famine, disease, ignorance and the disintegration of civilization.

This disintegration is so that the spiritual people of the nations and those beginning at the four corners will establish a true spiritual civilization–having tasted the blood of his covenant that recompenses the blood of the martyrs—-not like a corrupt society like that which is dying out right now.

The release of this blood from the heart-land of the four corners (its inward spiritual purity of the blood of the covenant and outward lethal poison of the rivers) sets the signal for these events to unfold.

Blessed are those who have eyes to see and ears to hear. This spread throughout Utah and New Mexico into the Colorado River and Grand Canyon and has poisoned the water supply for Arizona and California that is now even in draught.

Wake up O People, says Baha’u’llah, for your time is short.

Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.

Daniel Ch. 12, V. 12

And the angel of the LORD protested unto Joshua, saying,
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by.

Zechariah Ch. 3, Vs. 6-7

Blessed is he who hath remained faithful to My Covenant, and whom the things of the world have not kept back from attaining My Court of holiness.

Bahau’u’llah, LAWḤ-I-AQDAS (The Most Holy Tablet)

 

And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.
And the LORD said unto Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan; even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?
Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.
And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.
And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the LORD stood by.
And the angel of the LORD protested unto Joshua, saying,
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by.
Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.
For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.
In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree.

Zechariah Chapter 3, Holy Bible, KJV

And the Lord shewed me Jesus the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord: and Satan stood on his right hand to be his adversary.
And the Lord said to Satan: The Lord rebuke thee, O Satan: and the Lord that chose Jerusalem rebuke thee: Is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?
And Jesus was clothed with filthy garments: and he stood before the face of the angel.
Who answered, and said to them that stood before him, saying: Take away the filthy garments from him. And he said to him: Behold I have taken away thy iniquity, and have clothed thee with change of garments.
And he said: Put a clean mitre upon his head: and they put a clean mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments, and the angel of the Lord stood.
And the angel of the Lord protested to Jesus, saying:
Thus saith the Lord of hosts: If thou wilt walk in my ways, and keep my charge, thou also shalt judge my house, and shalt keep my courts, and I will give thee some of them that are now present here to walk with thee.
Hear, O Jesus thou high priest, thou and thy friends that dwell before thee, for they are portending men: for behold I WILL BRING MY SERVANT THE ORIENT.
For behold the stone that I have laid before Jesus: upon one stone there are seven eyes: behold I will grave the graving thereof, saith the Lord of hosts: and I will take away the iniquity of that land in one day.
In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, every man shall call his friend under the vine and under the fig tree.

Zacharias (Zechariah) Chapter 3, Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible

Blessed he who hath attired his head with the diadem of My love. Blessed is he who hath heard of My grief and hath arisen to aid Me among My people. Blessed is he who hath laid down his life in My path and hath borne manifold hardships for the sake of My Name. Blessed the man who, assured of My Word, hath arisen from among the dead to celebrate My praise. Blessed is he that hath been enraptured by My wondrous melodies and hath rent the veils asunder through the potency of My might. Blessed is he who hath remained faithful to My Covenant, and whom the things of the world have not kept back from attaining My Court of holiness. Blessed is the man who hath detached himself from all else but Me, hath soared in the atmosphere of My love, hath gained admittance into My Kingdom, gazed upon My realms of glory, quaffed the living waters of My bounty, hath drunk his fill from the heavenly river of My loving providence, acquainted himself with My Cause, apprehended that which I concealed within the treasury of My Words, and hath shone forth from the horizon of divine knowledge engaged in My praise and glorification. Verily, he is of Me. Upon him rest My mercy, My loving-kindness, My bounty and My glory.

THE ADVENT OF THE CITY OF GOD,
THE NEW JERUSALEM,
WITH THE STREET OF THE CITY
THAT WAS PURE GOLD [1]

THE prophecies for the establishment of the Holy City in America is as old as the hills. Isaiah tells us the way Jesus will come from the mountains in the Northwest:

Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee [Jesus], and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages [David’s lineage]; That thou mayest say to the prisoners [in the Montana State Prison], Go forth; to them that are in darkness [the Christians and the Covenant-breaking Baha’is], Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places…. And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted. Behold, these shall come from far [America]: and, lo, these from the north and from the west [northwest]; and these from the land [Leland] of Sinim. (Isaiah 49:8, 9, 11, 12)

Montana is a northern state bordering on Canada. Deer Lodge is in the Rocky Mountains in the far west of Montana, fulfilling the prophecy of coming in the mountains of the north and west. There are numerable prophecies concerning Jesus coming in the west and in America and in Deer Lodge.

Two Mountains of Brass

The Mormons thought that Jesus would come to the Mormon Temple in Salt Lake City in Utah. But George Williams, who was associated with the Mormons, prophesied and had visions that showed Jesus coming in the Deer Lodge Valley, Montana where the Temple of God, the City of the Great King, the New Jerusalem, is to be built. In Hebrew the word for copper and brass is the same. On either end of the Deer Lodge Valley (where the prison is located in the city of Deer Lodge) are the world’s two largest mountains of Copper: Lincoln and Butte, Montana.

AND I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass. (Zechariah 6:1)

Butte is called the ‘Richest Hill on earth.’ In 1900 Butte produced about one-quarter of the United States’ copper output and one-seventh of the world’s! [2] Butte is also called the city a mile high and a mile deep. It is a mile high in the Rocky Mountains and a mile deep with copper mines. Likewise, it is known that Lincoln, Montana has even more copper than Butte, though it hasn’t been tapped yet.

It is between these two mountains of brass that the Old Montana Prison in Deer Lodge fulfills the prophecy for the seven-towered temple of Ezekiel’s Temple where Jesus II enters through the eastern gate of Tower #7 between the two pillars of Jachin and Boaz (Jesus and Baha’u’llah).

From the prison in Deer Lodge between these two mountains of brass (Lincoln and Butte), the chariots of God and His heavenly army, led by the return of Jesus, will gather to be sent out into the world proclaiming the good news of the establishment of the Kingdom of God:

In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses; and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grizzled and bay horses. Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord? …These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth. (Zechariah 6:2-5)

The Morrisites and George Williams

The MORRISITES get their name from Joseph Morris. He appeared on the scene at the height of the great Mormon reformation of 1856. [3] It was his mission, much like that of the great reformer Martin Luther, to separate a group of pure-hearted people from the mainstream Mormon church which by that time had deviated from its course. The MORRISITES consider the reformer Morris as only the martyr foreshadower, or forerunner, of their true prophet, George Williams. [4]

Ten years after the Mormons entered the Great Salt Lake area in Utah, in 1857, they had become very corrupt under the leadership of Brigham Young. The main corruption of the Mormons was polygamy. Federal Court ruled that this practice was started by Brigham Young, not by Joseph Smith [5] and wasn’t announced by Brigham Young as an official Mormon practice until 1852, eight years after Smith had died. The purpose of this was so Brigham Young could marry a lot of rich widows and get their money and land. He would send a young man who was married and had some rich possessions and land to a foreign country, and then marry his wife and appropriate his land and belongings to himself.

Joseph Morris rose up at this time against the corruption of Brigham Young. He was a relatively unknown Mormon like Martin Luther who, in his day, was just one simple monk against the great Pope. Like Luther, Morris had no intention of starting his own religion. He just wanted to reform the Mormon Church in Utah and get rid of all their corruption so they could continue on their true path. However, Brigham Young refused to reform, just like the Pope refused to reform to Martin Luther. Brigham Young decided that he had to get rid of Morris and rub him out. Martin Luther, when he made his declaration, found protection from the Pope under the eight German princes. As long as the U.S. government army remained in the Utah territory, Morris was safe. However, in 1862 with the outbreak of the Civil War, the U.S. army pulled out of Utah, and Brigham Young and his Mormon militia took over. They ruthlessly murdered Joseph Morris and several other MORRISITES, ranking the MORRISITES war right up there with the Mountain Meadows Massacre a few years earlier.

As the Brighamite Sheriff Burton, riding roughshod into the MORRISITES camp at Kingston Fort, tried to run Joseph Morris down with his horse, he said, “I want no more of your apostasy” [6] (clearly showing that the conflict was purely religious in nature), and then shot Morris dead.

THE MILITARY ESCORT OF THE MORRISITES
by Neal Chase

On June 15th, 1862, Joseph Morris was murdered under the direct orders of Brigham Young. At that time the United States Army had already withdrawn from the Utah territory in July of 1861 to fight the Civil War and the Mormon militia under the iron-fisted control of Brigham Young had taken over full power.

The legal writs, warrants and other government authorizations issued to empower the Mormon militia for the murder of Morris were all orchestrated and controlled by Brigham Young through the force of his three main agents: Sheriff Robert T. Burton, who did the actual killing; Judge John F. Kinney, who issued the writs; and Acting Governor Frank Fuller, who placed his seal of approval on the executive order to kill Joseph Morris.

Sheriff Burton was a known pawn and dirty-jobber for Brigham Young. Judge Kinney publicly stated that he was in Brigham’s pocket. And acting Governor Fuller was a devout Mormon and follower of Young’s.

The Morrisite slaughter was the final atrocity on top of previous abominations of the Mormons such as the Mountain Meadows Massacre, the murder of the Aiken party—another bloody episode—and other heinous crimes that moved the Lincoln Administration, despite the immediate concerns imposed by the Civil War, to re-occupy the Utah Territory and protect the remaining Morrisites from any harm and danger from the violent threats and acts of Brigham Young and his Mormon killers.

Immediately after the murder of Morris and the arraignment of the surviving Morrisites in the court of Judge Kinney, Acting Governor Fuller was relieved of duty on July 7th, 1862, with the arrival of newly appointed Governor Stephen S. Harding.

Harding was instantly revolted by the slaughter—an oppressive religious war within the territory orchestrated by Young—and immediately set out to get to the truth of the matter. This ended in Harding granting a full exoneration of all charges against the Morrisites as well as the issuance of a strong report back to Washington reaching Abraham Lincoln through the Secretary of State. Lincoln then ordered the Union soldiers back into the Utah territory, under the leadership of General Patrick Edward Connor, to protect the Morrisite people from further harm. These actions by Lincoln completely infuriated Brigham Young who lashed out at the President from the pulpit in a feverish tirade.

…and as for those whom Abraham Lincoln has sent here [Connor’s troops] if they meddle with our domestic affairs I will send them to hell across lots; and as for those apostates [the Morrisites] running around here, they will probably fall down and their bowels will gush out, or they will bleed somewhere else. (Holy Murder: The Story of Porter Rockwell by Kelly and Birney, pp. 219, 220)

Despite the loud threats, General Connor fulfilled his mission by personally overseeing that the Morrisite wagon trains safely left the Utah Territory on May 5th, 1863 with a full military escort! One wagon train went south to Carson City, Nevada, while the other train led by Connor moved north to Soda Springs, Idaho, where the Morrisites built a settlement that they named Morris Town.

It was at this time that George Williams came onto the scene with his visions of the return of Jesus to be in the Deer Lodge Valley in Montana.

George Williams was never a Morrisite. He always remained a Mormon. It was the MORRISITES, however, who listened to his prophecies and followed his instructions to move to Deer Lodge. Williams was a farmer living in Salt Lake City, but as Brigham Young was looking to do with him as he did with Joseph Morris, Williams moved from Utah back to his native England. [7]
The First Vision

On April 15th, 1862, while riding on his horse in the mountains of Utah, Williams was overcome by a majestic visitation from the north in the direction of Deer Lodge in which he saw the return of Jesus leading the armies of heaven, riding ‘a countless host of horses’ out from between two ‘massive pillars of light.’ These two massive pillars correspond to the two mountains of brass from which the four chariots of the armies of heaven are prophesied to come forth in Zechariah chapter 6. The two mountains of brass are Lincoln and Butte, Montana. Lincoln is on the north and Butte is on the south of the Deer Lodge Valley.

His first vision was first circulated in handwritten form and was later published by John Eardley in 1899 in a book containing Williams’ prophecies and visions entitled Gems of Inspiration. Williams writes:—

After leading a blameless life, and searching after the treasures of eternity, through the gospel of Christ, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I was on the 15th day of April AD 1862, riding on my spirited mare by the slope of the western range of mountains, near Hacker’s Canyon, in Salt Lake Valley, Utah, when snow began to fall in a marvelous manner. A cloud appeared in the north and became agitated, and speedily formed an enormous archway, spanning the entire valley.

On each side of this arch were massive pillars of light, constructed with fine skill, and folding doors studded with golden bolts. Beholding this heavenly appearance, I alighted from my horse, and allowed it to escape. While meditating this scene, the eyes of my understanding were opened by the spirit of God, so as to understand the things of God as they were from eternity.

The folding doors were thrown back, and the highway to the eternal worlds was opened before me, and a voice strengthened me saying: “fear not, thou greatly beloved of the Lord, these are they that form a portion of the armies of heaven.” Beyond the folding doors I saw a countless host of horses, and they who sat upon them had on breast-plates of fire, and diamonds, and helmets of precious stones, and out of the nostrils of the horses came fire and smoke, and their riders had large swords, and their faces were lightened as the sun…. (cited from Joseph Morris and the Saga of the Morrisites by C. Leroy Anderson, pp. 174-5)

In the spring of 1863, corresponding exactly to the time of Baha’u’llah’s Proclamation in the Garden of Ridvan on April 21st, 1863, George Williams, following the direction of God, proclaimed himself to the Morrisite community and declared that Deer Lodge was the sacred spot foreordained in all the books of God to be the site for the Heavenly City, the “City, of the Great King” which is described in the Book of Revelation and the Bible as the “New Jerusalem.”

At once with joyful hearts and renewed vigor the seemingly beaten band of Morrisites were now set aglow with a new zeal, for they had been saved and redeemed just as Morris had promised they would be after the great Morrisite killings of 1862! Now with the true vision of the seer Williams, they triumphantly gathered their scant material possessions and moved to the Deer Lodge Valley, for them the home of the Promised Land! Some moved directly to Deer Lodge while others moved to Soda Springs, Idaho and Council Bluffs, Iowa, later to join the rest of them in Deer Lodge.

Here they built the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, and paved the streets with pure gold (Revelation 21:21), and the city was pure gold (Revelation 21:18). The city was built foursquare, its length, breadth and heighth are equal (Revelation 21:16). The city of Deer Lodge is one mile wide, one mile long and one mile high—a cube—that is, it is one mile above sea level. And they have a river of gold flowing a little way west of Deer Lodge called Gold Creek.

Most of the Morrisites upon arriving in the Deer Lodge Valley went to work in the placer gold mines, and they were paid in gold, which they used to pay for the building of the streets and the city. Thus the city and the streets were paid for with gold, or, in other words, they were paved with gold.

After hearing Williams’ great announcement, the first Morrisites moved to Montana in the spring of 1863, the same year that the Deer Lodge Town Company platted the city of Deer Lodge, Montana as a perfect square mile (640 acres).

By the 1870s the majority of the rest of the Morrisites joined their friends in Deer Lodge to await the return of Jesus in that city, “the City of the Great King.” Williams told the Morrisites to build a Temple in Deer Lodge with stones from the surrounding mountains, for Jesus would come and enter the Temple. He said that they should look for him at the temple on August the 9th. The Morrisites never built the Temple; instead they built a small wooden church, not in Deer Lodge, but about 5 miles south of Deer Lodge where they assembled every year in a great event on August 9th.

Whereas the State of Montana built the Temple for them from the rocks and stones from the surrounding mountains. The return of Jesus entered that Temple in the evening of August 8th, 1969, when he, Leland—the Land—entered the Montana State Prison, placed there by God, and he spent his first full day in that Temple on August 9th, 1969. At the same time the Morrisites were assembled at their wooden church, waiting there for Jesus. The prophecy of Williams was for them to look for him on August the 9th at the Temple built of stones from the surrounding mountains, not at a wooden church. Thus the Morrisites missed the return of Jesus because they were looking for him in the wrong place, in a wooden church south of Deer Lodge, whereas Jesus was prophesied to come in the Temple in the City of Gold of the Great King.

August 9th, 1969 was the last time the Morrisites met and looked for the return of Jesus.[8] However, he had already come, unbeknownst to them, in the Temple inside the City of Gold. If they had followed the instructions of Williams more carefully they would not have missed their hearts’ desire. They didn’t expect for him to come in prison although he was prophesied by both Williams and Jesus on his first coming that he would return in prison and he would separate the sheep from the goats.

Williams’ Other Visions

Williams was specifically clear that it would be the return of Jesus the High Priest after the Order of Melchizedec (see Hebrews, chapters 5, 6 and 7), and not the second coming of Christ (which is Baha’u’llah, the descendant of David), who would appear in Deer Lodge! Thus Williams’ prophecy of the return of Jesus in prison was specifically referring to the return of Jesus the High Priest, and he entitles his prophecy “the high priesthood returns.” Williams and the Morrisites were really into the return of Jesus being of the Order of Melchizedec (as the High Priest), and they held that Williams was the one representing him at their time. This clarifies that it was not Jesus Christ, but Jesus the High Priest after the Order of Melchizedec who Williams prophesies:

You also wish to know something of Melchizedec—the real Melchizedec [Jesus the High Priest], not one representing him [Williams]. Now mark the first time we hear of him, he declared to be the King of Salem or Peace. Here is brought out the bread and wine to Abraham, our faithful friend and brother. It is not written what was said at this interview; but I have not doubt it would be the same as said to the 12, at his last supper when he [9] takes the bread and also the cup saying: “Take, eat and drink, all of you, for this is my body broken, and my blood shed for you.” There he stood [Jesus the High Priest] without a scar. (George Williams’ letter to Erasmussen, December 27, 1881)

Williams gives the astounding fact that the return of Jesus the High Priest (after the Order of Melchizedec) will be from the royal line (genealogy) of the Kings of Denmark. Most of the Morrisites were Danes (of the tribe of Dan) that had migrated to Danmark. The Danes were different from the Christians and the Mormons in that they were not waiting for Jesus to descend from the sky, but would be born from the lineage of the Kings of Danmark, or Denmark. Dr. Leland Jensen is a full-blooded Dane on both his mother’s (Petersen) and his father’s (Jensen) side. His father’s line goes back to the royalty of Denmark, fulfilling Williams’ prophecy.

Williams gives the clearest picture of all! Unlike the ridiculous myths of the majority of Christians waiting for Jesus to come down out of the physical sky on a physical cloud, the Morrisites were awaiting the return of Jesus for over 100 years as a descendant of the Kings of Denmark, a real person, to be imprisoned in the city of Deer Lodge in a stone building that was both a prison and Ezekiel’s seven-towered Temple. He would be wearing a “dirty garment” as his charge, which the Bab and Baha’u’llah, though in prison, did not have. He would arrive on the day of August 9th of 1969. Williams said that he knew his new name (which we know is Leland: the Land, Ha Eretz; see Zechariah 3:9), but he says it was not for him to reveal. And that his mission as the High Priest after the Order of Melchizedec was to open the scroll of the Covenant and to go by the Law of the Book of the Covenant (Will and Testament) in order to establish his Father’s Kingdom.

As a capstone to this brief segment of Williams’ prophecies is a most remarkable vision of all, of special interest to Baha’is as well as all the people of the world. In an astounding vision in which Muhammad appeared to George Williams, he was instructed to send a messenger from Deer Lodge to Constantinople and rebuke the Sultan of the Turkish Empire, Abdu’l-Aziz, who is the one that imprisoned Baha’u’llah unjustly. Williams prophesies that the Ottoman Empire will be torn down for this evil deed and that the Sultan will lose his power, which he did. The most astounding feature of the vision of Muhammad is that at the end of it Williams hears a multitude of angels singing the most beautiful sound he had ever heard, “Allah’u’Abha! Allah’u’Abha!” over and over again:

Cainan [George Williams] bowed consent and then a pause. Muhammad said, “My time is expired. Farewell.” I heard now a loud rushing, it seemed of a thousand voices, the most distinctive sound was Allah Abbah. This proceeded from the same body of light that swept past taking my visitor which I watched till I could see no more. And the voices left their memory, the sweetest ever mortal heard. (George Williams’ Vision of Muhammad, 1867)

Thus in this vision Williams received the Most Great Name brought by Baha’u’llah and Baha’u’llah alone, showing that he had attained, as Baha’u’llah has written: the true station which every Baha’i can attain is that of an Old Testament prophet.

Like Jesus Christ and Baha’u’llah who had John the Baptist and the Bab, respectively, as their forerunners, Dr. Leland Jensen has George Williams and the Morrisites. The entire Deer Lodge Valley was pioneered and settled specifically for his coming so that all the people of the world could be absolutely assured through this proof that he is the authentic and bona fide establisher of the Baha’i Faith, authorized to re-establish what the Covenant-breaking “Hands” threw out—the genuine IBC/UHJ with the Davidic Kingship as the president and member for life of that body.

The purpose of these prophecies is to establish beyond any doubt whatsoever (through proofs) what the true and full station, mission and authority of Dr. Jensen is as the authentic establisher of the Baha’i faith. The fulfillment of prophecy is given by ‘Abdu’l-Baha in Some Answered Questions as the bona fide criteria for recognizing the authenticity of the Promised Ones.[10] When we see that they fulfill the prophecies from a number of established sources, like the Biblical proofs given for Jesus on his first coming and those for the coming of Baha’u’llah, then we can see they are authentic and we can believe in them, as authenticity is the criteria for believability. God has been very gracious in sending His Son back at this time of great trouble just before the great catastrophe, guiding those pure souls that had been hoodwinked and bamboozled into following false leaders such as the clergy of the various religions and the Covenant-breaking “Hands” of the Baha’i faith along with their created monster (without a head) Universal House of Justice.

The Return of Jesus is not a Manifestation

Consider thou the Day of Resurrection. Were God to pronounce the lowliest of creatures among the faithful to be the First One to believe in the Bayan, thou shouldst have no misgivings about it and must be of them that truly believe. In this station look not upon human limitations and names but rather upon that whereby the rank of the First One to believe is vindicated, which is faith in God, and recognition of His being and assurance in the fulfillment of His irresistible and binding command.

Consider thou the Revelation of the Point of the Bayan [the Bab]—exalted is His glory. He pronounced the First One to believe in Him [Mulla Husayn] to be Muhammad, the Messenger of God. [Yet Mulla Husayn was not a Manifestation! But a follower of the Manifestation!] Does it beseem a man to dispute with Him by saying that this man is from Persia, the Other from Arabia, or this one was called Husayn while the Other bore the name Muhammad? Nay, I swear by God’s holy Being, the Exalted, the Most Great. Surely no man of intelligence and insight would ever pay attention unto limitations or names, but rather unto that with which Muhammad was invested, which was none other than the Cause of God. Such a man of insight would likewise consider [Mulla] Husayn and the position he occupied in the Cause of God, the Omnipotent, the Exalted, the Knowing, the Wise.
(Tablets of Baha’u’llah, pp. 184, 185)

And since the First One to believe in God in the Dispensation of the Bayan was invested with command similar to that with which Muhammad, the Messenger of God, was invested, therefore the Bab pronounced him to be the latter, namely, his return and resurrection. This station [although Mulla Husayn was not a Manifestation] is sanctified from every limitation or name, and naught can be seen therein but God, the One, the Peerless, the All-Knowing.

The Bab was the Promised Manifestation of Islam, and therefore Mullah Husayn, the First One to fully believe and comprehend his Revelation, was invested with the station of being the return and resurrection of Muhammad, although Mullah Husayn was not himself a Manifestation of God like the Bab, but was, rather, his follower. The coming of Baha’u’llah is that of the second coming of Christ, the fulfillment of Christianity, and therefore, the First One in this Great Revelation, the establisher of the Baha’i Faith, holds the station of the return and resurrection of Jesus without being a Manifestation of God, the same as Mulla Husayn was not a Manifestation of God yet was the return of Muhammad.

Dr. Leland Jensen was the supreme defender of the Covenant in both it’s Greater and lesser aspects. He was promised in the religious scriptures and oral teachings of all people everywhere on the planet and prophesied by the prophets of all cultures for the entirety of the six thousand year Adamic Cycle. But for his purity of heart and firmness in the Covenant and by his mandate from God to protect, defend and teach the Covenant to the world and establish it firmly in this land (the prophesied New Jerusalem in the U.S.A.) we who’ve gathered under the Banner of the Most Great Name would still be wandering in the spiritual wilderness not knowing where to find the truth we have sought. Thank God for sending His Son to the world a second time to re-gather the elect unto the presence of Baha’u’llah under the Provisions of His everlasting Covenant!

Ya Allah El-Mustaghath!

Baha’i Month: Kamal/Perfection 1, 172 B.E. (8/1/2015)

Saturday, August 1st, 2015

Let anyone inclined to doubt the course which this enviable community is destined to follow, turn to and meditate upon these words of ‘Abdu’l‑Bahá, enshrined, for all time, in the Tablets of the Divine Plan, and addressed to the entire community of the believers of the United States and Canada: “The full measure of your success,” He informs them, “is as yet unrevealed, its significance still unapprehended. Erelong, ye will, with your own eyes, witness how brilliantly every one of you, even as a shining star, will radiate, in the firmament of your country, the light of Divine Guidance, and will bestow upon its people the glory of an everlasting life.… The range of your future achievements still remains undisclosed. I fervently hope that in the near future the whole earth may be stirred and shaken by the results of your achievements. The hope, therefore, which ‘Abdu’l‑Bahá cherishes for you is that the same success which has attended your efforts in America may crown your endeavors in other parts of the world, that through you the fame of the Cause of God may be diffused throughout the East and the West, and the advent of the Kingdom of the Lord of Hosts be proclaimed in all the five continents of the globe.” “The moment,” He most significantly adds, “this Divine Message is carried forward by the American believers from the shores of America, and is propagated throughout the continents of Europe, of Asia, of Africa, and of Australasia, and as far as the islands of the Pacific, this community will find itself securely established upon the throne of an everlasting dominion. Then will all the peoples of the world witness that this community is spiritually illumined and divinely guided. Then will the whole earth resound with the praises of its majesty and greatness.”

No reader of these words, so vibrant with promises that not even the triumphant consummation of the Seven Year Plan can fulfill, can expect a community that has been raised so high, and endowed so richly, to remain content with any laurels it may win in the immediate future. To rest upon such laurels would indeed be tantamount to a betrayal of the trust placed in that community by ‘Abdu’l‑Bahá. To cut short the chain of victories that must lead it on to that supreme triumph when “the whole earth may be stirred and shaken” by the results of its achievements would shatter His hopes. To vacillate, and fail to “propagate through the continents of Europe, of Asia, of Africa, and of Australasia, and as far as the islands of the Pacific” a Message so magnificently proclaimed by it in the American continent would deprive it of the privilege of being “securely established upon the throne of an everlasting dominion.” To forfeit the honor of proclaiming “the advent of the Kingdom of the Lord of Hosts” in “all the five continents of the globe” would silence those “praises of its majesty and greatness” that otherwise would echo throughout “the whole earth.”

Such vacillation, failure, or neglect, the American believers, the ambassadors of the Faith of Bahá’u’lláh, will, I am firmly convinced, never permit. Such a trust will never be betrayed, such hopes can never be shattered, such a privilege will never be forfeited, nor will such praises remain unuttered. Nay rather the present generation of this blessed, this repeatedly blessed, community will go from strength to strength, and will hand on, as the first century draws to a close, to the generations that must succeed it in the second the torch of Divine Guidance, undimmed by the tempestuous winds that must blow upon it, that they in turn, faithful to the wish and mandate of ‘Abdu’l‑Bahá, may carry that torch, with that self-same vigor, fidelity, and enthusiasm, to the darkest and remotest corners of the earth.

Know then that “life” hath a twofold meaning. The first pertaineth to the appearance of man in an elemental body, and is as manifest to thine eminence and to others as the midday sun. This life cometh to an end with physical death, which is a God-ordained and inescapable reality. That life, however, which is mentioned in the Books of the Prophets and the Chosen Ones of God is the life of knowledge; that is to say, the servant’s recognition of the sign of the splendours wherewith He Who is the Source of all splendour hath Himself invested him, and his certitude of attaining unto the presence of God through the Manifestations of His Cause. This is that blessed and everlasting life that perisheth not: whosoever is quickened thereby shall never die, but will endure as long as His Lord and Creator will endure.

The first life, which pertaineth to the elemental body, will come to an end, as hath been revealed by God: “Every soul shall taste of death.”42 But the second life, which ariseth from the knowledge of God, knoweth no death, as hath been revealed aforetime: “Him will We surely quicken to a blessed life.”43 And in another passage concerning the martyrs: “Nay, they are alive and sustained by their Lord.”44 And from the Traditions: “He who is a true believer liveth both in this world and in the world to come.”45 Numerous examples of similar words are to be found in the Books of God and of the Embodiments of His justice. For the sake of brevity, however, We have contented Ourself with the above passages.

TALK BY ABDU’L-BAHA’ TO THEOSOPHICAL SOCIETY
THE KENSINGTON
EXETER AND BOYLSTON STREETS, BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS

 

In the world of existence there is nothing so important as spirit, nothing so essential as the spirit of man. The spirit of man is the most noble of phenomena. The spirit of man is the meeting between man and God. The spirit of man is the animus of human life and the collective center of all human virtues. The spirit of man is the cause of the illumination of this world. The world may be likened to the body; man is the spirit of the body, because the light of the world is the human spirit. Man is the life of the world, and the life of man is the spirit. The happiness of the world depends upon man, and the happiness of man is dependent upon the spirit. The world may be likened to the lamp chimney, whereas man is the light. Man himself may be likened to the lamp; his spirit is the light within the lamp. Therefore, we will speak of this spirit.
The philosophers of the world are divided into two classes: materialists, who deny the spirit and its immortality, and the divine philosophers, the wise men of God, the true illuminati who believe in the spirit and its continuance hereafter. The ancient philosophers taught that man consists simply of the material elements which compose his cellular structure and that when this composition is disintegrated the life of man becomes extinct. They reasoned that man is body only, and from this elemental composition the organs and their functions, the senses, powers and attributes which characterize man have proceeded, and that these disappear completely with the physical body. This is practically the statement of all the materialists.
The divine philosophers proclaim that the spirit of man is ever-living and eternal, and because of the objections of the materialists, these wise men of God have advanced rational proofs to support the validity of their statement. Inasmuch as the materialistic philosophers deny the Books of God, scriptural demonstration is not evidence to them, and materialistic proofs are necessary. Answering them, the men of divine knowledge have said that all existing phenomena may be resolved into grades or kingdoms, classified progressively as mineral, vegetable, animal and human, each of which possesses its degree of function and intelligence. When we consider the mineral, we find that it exists and is possessed of the power of affinity or combination. The vegetable possesses the qualities of the mineral plus the augmentative virtue or power of growth. It is, therefore, evident that the vegetable kingdom is superior to the mineral. The animal kingdom in turn possesses the qualities of the mineral and vegetable plus the five senses of perception whereof the kingdoms below it are lacking. Likewise, the power of memory inherent in the animal does not exist in the lower kingdoms.
Just as the animal is more noble than the vegetable and mineral, so man is superior to the animal. The animal is bereft of ideality—that is to say, it is a captive of the world of nature and not in touch with that which lies within and beyond nature; it is without spiritual susceptibilities, deprived of the attractions of consciousness, unconscious of the world of God and incapable of deviating from the law of nature. It is different with man. Man is possessed of the emanations of consciousness; he has perception, ideality and is capable of discovering the mysteries of the universe. All the industries, inventions and facilities surrounding our daily life were at one time hidden secrets of nature, but the reality of man penetrated them and made them subject to his purposes. According to nature’s laws they should have remained latent and hidden; but man, having transcended those laws, discovered these mysteries and brought them out of the plane of the invisible into the realm of the known and visible. How wonderful is the spirit of man! One of the mysteries of natural phenomena is electricity. Man has discovered this illimitable power and made it captive to his uses. How many of nature’s secrets have been penetrated and revealed! Columbus, while in Spain, discovered America. Man has accurately determined that the sun is stationary while the earth revolves about it. The animal cannot do this. Man perceives the mirage to be an illusion. This is beyond the power of the animal. The animal can only know through sense impressions and cannot grasp intellectual realities. The animal cannot conceive of the power of thought. This is an abstract intellectual matter and not limited to the senses. The animal is incapable of knowing that the earth is round. In brief, abstract intellectual phenomena are human powers. All creation below the kingdom of man is the captive of nature; it cannot deviate in the slightest degree from nature’s laws. But man wrests the sword of dominion from nature’s hand and uses it upon nature’s head. For example, it is a natural exigency that man should be a dweller upon the earth, but the power of the human spirit transcends this limitation, and he soars aloft in airplanes. This is contrary to the law and requirement of nature. He sails at high speed upon the ocean and dives beneath its surface in submarines. He imprisons the human voice in a phonograph and communicates in the twinkling of an eye from East to West. These are things we know to be contrary to the limitations of natural law. Man transcends nature, while the mineral, vegetable and animal are helplessly subject to it. This can be done only through the power of the spirit, because the spirit is the reality.
In the physical powers and senses, however, man and the animal are partners. In fact, the animal is often superior to man in sense perception. For instance, the vision of some animals is exceedingly keen and the hearing of others most acute. Consider the instinct of a dog: how much greater than that of man. But, although the animal shares with man all the physical virtues and senses, a spiritual power has been bestowed upon man of which the animal is devoid. This is a proof that there is something in man above and beyond the endowment of the animal—a faculty and virtue peculiar to the human kingdom which is lacking in the lower kingdoms of existence. This is the spirit of man. All these wonderful human accomplishments are due to the efficacy and penetrating power of the spirit of man. If man were bereft of this spirit, none of these accomplishments would have been possible. This is as evident as the sun at midday.
All the organisms of material creation are limited to an image or form. That is to say, each created material being is possessed of a form; it cannot possess two forms at the same time. For example, a body may be spherical, triangular or square; but it is impossible for it to be two of these shapes simultaneously. It may be triangular, but if it is to become square, it must first rid itself of the triangular shape. It is absolutely impossible for it to be both at the same time. Therefore, it is evident in the reality of material organisms that different forms cannot be simultaneously possessed. In the spiritual reality of man, however, all geometrical figures can be simultaneously conceived, while in physical realities one image must be forsaken in order that another may be possible. This is the law of change and transformation, and change and transformation are precursors of mortality. Were it not for this change in form, phenomena would be immortal; but because the phenomenal existence is subject to transformation, it is mortal. The reality of man, however, is possessed of all virtues; it is not necessary for him to give up one image for another as mere physical bodies do. Therefore, in that reality there is no change or transformation; it is immortal and everlasting. The body of man may be in America while his spirit is laboring and working in the Far East, discovering, organizing and planning. While occupied in governing, making laws and erecting a building in Russia, his body is still here in America. What is this power which, notwithstanding that it is embodied in America, is operating at the same time in the Orient, organizing, destroying, upbuilding? It is the spirit of man. This is irrefutable.
When you wish to reflect upon or consider a matter, you consult something within you. You say, shall I do it, or shall I not do it? Is it better to make this journey or abandon it? Whom do you consult? Who is within you deciding this question? Surely there is a distinct power, an intelligent ego. Were it not distinct from your ego, you would not be consulting it. It is greater than the faculty of thought. It is your spirit which teaches you, which advises and decides upon matters. Who is it that interrogates? Who is it that answers? There is no doubt that it is the spirit and that there is no change or transformation in it, for it is not a composition of elements, and anything that is not composed of elements is eternal. Change and transformation are peculiarities of composition. There is no change and transformation in the spirit. In proof of this, the body may become weakened in its members. It may be dismembered, or one of its members may be incapacitated. The whole body may be paralyzed; and yet the mind, the spirit, remains ever the same. The mind decides; the thought is perfect; and yet the hand is withered, the feet have become useless, the spinal column is paralyzed, and there is no muscular movement at all, but the spirit is in the same status. Dismember a healthy man; the spirit is not dismembered. Amputate his feet; his spirit is there. He may become lame; the spirit is not affected. The spirit is ever the same; no change or transformation can you perceive, and because there is no change or transformation, it is everlasting and permanent.
Consider man while in the state of sleep; it is evident that all his parts and members are at a standstill, are functionless. His eye does not see, his ear does not hear, his feet and hands are motionless; but, nevertheless, he does see in the world of dreams, he does hear, he speaks, he walks, he may even fly in an airplane. Therefore, it becomes evident that though the body be dead, yet the spirit is alive and permanent. Nay, the perceptions may be keener when man’s body is asleep, the flight may be higher, the hearing may be more acute; all the functions are there, and yet the body is at a standstill. Hence it is proof that there is a spirit in the man, and in this spirit there is no distinction as to whether the body be asleep or absolutely dead and dependent. The spirit is not incapacitated by these conditions; it is not bereft of its existence; it is not bereft of its perfections. The proofs are many, innumerable.
These are all rational proofs. Nobody can refute them. As we have shown that there is a spirit and that this spirit is permanent and everlasting, we must strive to learn of it. May you become informed of its power, hasten to render it divine, to have it become sanctified and holy and make it the very light of the world illumining the East and the West.

Open Letter 7/17/2015

Tuesday, July 21st, 2015

Dear friends,

 

Please find attached a recent open letter that consolidates some important concepts for today.

 

In service,

 

Your servant,

 

Neal.

 

 

Dear Q.A.:

 

True science and true religion correspond. The purpose of this is to open up an experiential realm that can be articulated through a deeper scientific method–similar to the scientific method Dr. Jensen has uncovered regarding the special case of prophecy fulfillment.

 

In the meanwhile what is essential is that people deepen on my station and the station of Dr. Leland Jensen and understand the proofs of prophecy that the two of us fulfill so that their hearts may become purified and that no doubt should exist in their minds concerning the reality of The prophecies (see the online video Twin Establishers for more). Firmness in the Covenant is absolutely essential here in order that the truth be distinguished from error, and the light from the dark. This is why it is written that the 144,000 are sealed on the forehead. The forehead symbolizes the intellect which has the discerning power to recognize the proofs of myself and Dr. Leland Jensen as well as that of the Bab and Baha’u’llah that fulfill prophecy by their prophesied name, prophesied date, prophesied address, and prophesied missions (the four letters of the greatest name). The dates, addresses and missions that are prophesied always refer to the superior promised one. For example the date of March 23, 1844–the year 1260 is given. The superior promised one that fulfills that date is his Holiness the Bab. At this exact time Mullah Husayn who fulfills the prophecy for the return of “Muhammad” (see Surih-i-Vafa) was also present at both the prophesied time and the prophesied place (Shiraz–“I will place my throne in Elam”, that is Shiraz Persia). The presence of the return of Muhammad is an essential feature of the prophecy that the Bab fulfilled at that moment. However the Bab is the superior promised one who was delivering His message to Mullah Husayn. It would be violation of the Covenant for Mullah Husayn to claim that those prophecies refer to him and not to the Bab. In fact they refer to the Bab giving the message at that time, and place and the mission of the Bab as deliverer and Mullah Husayn–as that FIRM one– as the recipient. Thus Mullah Husayn is dependent upon the Bab and not the other way around.

 

Baha’u’llah states that because of Mullah Husayn, God was established upon the throne.

 

At the very time the Bab was giving birth to Mullah Husayn as his spiritual son, ‘Abdu’l-Baha was being physically born to Navaab and Baha’u’llah. Clearly Baha’u’llah is superior to ‘Abdu’l-Baha and in His own writings the Bab confesses that he is dependent upon Baha’u’llah as well. This is the message that was being given to Mullah Husayn. Thus Four Promised ones appeared at that exact moment in time in the East. While this was occurring in the East Joseph Smith and his brother Hiram Smith, and George Williams and Joseph Morris in the West were being prepared by God to establish the Mormon faith in preparation for the coming of the Baha’i Covenant to America. Immanuel Swedenborg, the disciple of Isaac Newton paved the way before them and Isaac and Swedenborg and Thomas Jefferson and others in the U.S. are similar to the Shaykhis of Shaykh Ahmad and Mullah Kazim who appeared in Persia prior to Mullah Husayn and the Bab. Like the Shaykhi faith many of the Mormon and Swedenborgian and Jeffersonian doctrines are like the fantasy of children who speculate before they are awakened to the reality of adulthood. The explanations and commentaries of Dr. Leland Jensen, and the scientific method and approaches of myself burn away the unreality of the inner fantasy and open up the true vista of the foundation of fact. This frees the people from their vain imaginations and allows them to have direct access to the reality of the Kingdom in both this life and the next, independent of all save God.

 

The first sign of violation of the Covenant is those that protest against the year 2001 A.D. being the date of the fulfillment of these prophecies for the establishment of the Kingdom and the event in which God brought forth myself as His “servant the BRANCH.” (Zech. 3:8 KJV). This sickness is not unto death because in deepening of the year 2001 date that I fulfill is the hinge that also liberates the people from all distress and disease. It does this because they have to use their intellect to work through the fulfillment of this date of 2001 A.D. As they work through the calculations of this date, that actual work spiritually and intellectually removes the virus of the Covenant-breaking disease. Then the people can see clearly that this is not secular but sacred and divine. And the healing can begin.

 

When they teach this date to others it aggravates the condition of the virus in them,–so that it can come to the surface and along with the other proofs of prophecy fulfilled be burned away in the fever of the Covenant and thus removed and expelled from the hapless victims who have been poisoned against the Covenant–and the person of the living Davidic king–in this day today. This is one of the reasons we have all been told to teach the faith–as you have been doing through translations–so that we can win our own stations and be purified. The people of Arabic, Persian, and Islamic backgrounds are free from this particular form of the disease of Covenant-breaking because of their Islamic hardwiring so to speak. They are able to perceive what the Mustaghath means and immediately accept this as 2001 A.D. without any further delays. This date is given in many faiths of all the world such as the Mayan, Aztec, Hopi, and Native American calendars and prophesies; the Hindu Kali Yug and Kalachakra Buddhism of Asia and Chinese prophetical calendars; the Great Pyramid of Giza located upon the African continent in Egypt; and in the Nordic and Scandinavian religions as well as the Abhrahamic faiths of Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

 

In the Bible and Koran six days of creation are given each of which is as 1000 years (2 Peter 3:8). This brings us from the foundation of civilization in 4000 BC to the year 2001 A.D. In Haggai, Zechariah and Daniel chapter 6 the “Seven Times” are given. A time being a cycle of 360 times 7 equals 2520 years taken from the foundation of the corner stone of the second temple in 520 BC brings us exactly to September 21, 2001 A.D.. Those that are poisoned into the secularization and have fallen are given this date of the 2520 as a ladder out of the pit of error, and as a strong cord and rope out of the bottomless grotto. This is why in David Davidson’s Pyramid book he shows the relation of the 2520 prophetical cycle to the overall structure of the pyramid. Those fallen into the pit can re-ascend from the violation and poison of the pit of error through the grotto that represents the prophet Muhammad and 12 Imams and come out though the broken stone of Jesus into the grand gallery to again enter the temple symbolized by the coming of the Bab and Baha’u’llah after the date given by the Great Step at the upper South end of the Grand Galley of the 7 Overlays of God.

 

This is why God allows the people to stumble and run the gamut of iniquities. This is like what it says in the Koran: “When you say you believe do you think that God will let you alone and not put you to the proof?” God never changes the way in which he tests the people. He sends them a living promised one that goes against their norms, and habits, and complacencies–who is sent to jar the people awake–by any means–out of their spiritual lethargy. When he does this, contrary to the wishes of some of the people, then they denounce him. But in reality they are declaring themselves as unworthy to associate with him in the Kingdom in either this life or the next. We see today that the main thing that they are against is the outer expression of the inner reality of the SPIRIT. Thus I have particularly focused upon this here in the West in order to reverse the current climate that is against God in every way, shape and form–and trigger the spiritually transformative experience meant by God through the activation of Biblical prophecies that He has sent to awaken all the people of the world to the truth.

 

The personal fall and restoration of the individual personalities of the people is so that the people of Christian background will directly experience being in the Kingdom and elated; and being expelled from the Kingdom and deleted in their own personal lives so that they can then make a real choice to enter the Kingdom and work ceaselessly and tirelessly in the Cause (as I do day and night) or choose against this–judging themselves unworthy in both this life and the next. I have nothing to do with their ultimate choice–and the writings state that “God is no respecter of persons.” Thus I work and associate with those who are alive (such as yourself) without prejudice; and those who are spiritually dead as Jesus says, leave buried to themselves “let the dead bury the dead”. If they again arise to the living–you will see me with them. When they are dead you won’t. This vacillation is on their part–not mine. I remain in the station of constancy, and their vacillations are for themselves so that by their death beds they will have made their choices and will rise or fall accordingly. But in this world we are sent to increase our capacities. Those who spend the most of their time outside the Kingdom while they are here in this life have not the capacity for it in the next and remain for the most part outside of it there as well. And when they are allowed to enter have a very low tolerance and capacity for the divine reality of the Lordly Will of God of which Jesus–obedient unto death states: “Not my will O Lord but Thine!” Thus it is written in the Koran that God has created the world to train the faithful. God already knows what the people are going to choose–because in the world of God there is no time and they have already chosen this. The test is thus not for me or for God–but for the people so that they will know where they are at. God already knows where they are at–but the people need to be tested so that they will know where they are at (where they spend the majority of their time physically and spiritually) so that they can use the leverage they have here in the world of opposites to move into a situation where they can be in the presence of God by all ways and in all means.

 

This is the Roman road of the apostle Paul who accepted the Covenant of Abraham through Gamaliel, and then rejected Jesus and held the coats while they stoned Stephen (I used to live on Stephens Avenue) and then who was struck blind by lightening strike on the road to Damascus and hurled out of the Kingdom altogether. Later he came and found the Apostle Peter and he healed him and he could see. Then it took Paul 14 years to spiritually recover before he was able to go forth and teach. When he was strengthened by God to do this he became the great establisher of Christianity in the West. ‘Abdu’l-Baha tells us that we should all have the deeds of Paul and the faith of Peter. Thus the prophecy of the 2520 is a spiritual ladder out of the pit–as depicted in the structure of the Great Pyramid of Giza–for the people of the Christian background who have fallen and can’t get up!

 

The coming of Dr. Jensen and myself in the West, and my own appearance in the year 2001 AD (Mustaghath) is the momentous event spoken of in all the books and religions of God. Baha’u’llah Himself swears fealty unto me personally as the one who appears from his own successorship in the Gleanings in the year Mustaghath–2001 A.D. The Bab and ‘Abdu’l-Baha both write of me as well. Dr. Jensen opened the way of using the intellect to recognize the proofs of prophecy fulfilled in order that the people should have a sound intellectual, psychological, emotional, spiritual and factual foundation upon myself as “the rock upon which is built this church,” the body of believers.

 

In the body all parts and members are connected. This body has nine great systems of the great world revelators of the 6000 years Adamic cycle. The outer body today is all of us in the world with myself as the head or president of the body. The inner reality is that of Baha’u’llah as the head of the body for the body of believers in both this world and the next are united even now. Thus Baha’u’llah is seated upon the throne of King David forever through his own aghsan that remain established upon the throne of King David on earth. The body of believers in both worlds are the Oneness of Humanity. Through the point of unity the believers in this world (conditional status of testing) have access to the body of the believers and the supreme concourse on high in the next (those who have won their stations, that is the perfection of themselves). As those here deepen in the Covenant they too can become “open gates” allowing the rest of the people of the nations and cultures who have chosen God to enter through them into this spiritual and material reality of the Kingdom now established upon the earth. As long as the connection remains unsevered–and the people remain firm in the Covenant with myself–this is the “uvatu’l-vuthqa” the indissoluble link.

 

This is why as soon as any violate the covenant–the true friends must immediately sever all contact material and spiritual with them for in these days of testing we cannot risk losing our own direct and immediate connection with God.

 

This is why in the Baha’i teachings on prayer (what Jesus gave as “I am the manna from heaven” John 6), Shoghi Effendi states that it is essential to know the difference in station between God and the Manifestation and ‘Abdu’l-Baha and the Guardian etc. This is what his holiness Muhammad has given in the Koran that “we have elevated some of the prophets above the others and to David we gave the Psalms”. In the Psalms is where the ever lasting covenant has been given to King David.

 

When asked about the date of May 23, 1844 being his birthday, ‘Abdu’l-Baha stated that this date refers to the proclamation of the Bab and not to himself. That this date should be celebrated as the recognition of the Bab and not him. He then gave the date Nov. 26 for the date they could commemorate himself as the date he was appointed in the Will and Testament. He also ascended on Nov. 28–thus this is the date the Covenant was activated. Abraham Lincoln and FDR, both American presidents knowing of Baha’u’llah, set the American holiday Thanksgiving on these dates Nov. 26-28. Thus all Americans celebrate the day of the Covenant whether they know it or not! They also celebrate Baha’u’llah’s birthday on Nov. 11/12 as the holiday Woodrow Wilson–also a Baha’i president–set for the Armistice Day that is now Veterans Day. The martyrdom of the Bab here is July 4 though 9. There are other parallels as well.

 

Thus this culture is being prepared by God to be transformed as the first society in the world that is international, as people of all persuasions and backgrounds are here in the US. For this reason it will be hit hardest in the oncoming nuclear war that is to kill one third of mankind in one hour–mostly here in the US and Europe–every city of population 100,000 or more being targeted.

 

The nation of Persia is not counted as one of the ten horns of the dragon in the Book of Revelation.

 

The pure of heart in Iran will ultimately unite with the US and with Russia to bring peace between these two nations. They will be assisted in this by the country of Germany.

 

May God guide and keep you well!

 

I remain yours,

 

Your servant,

 

Neal.

16 September 1912
TALK AT HOME OF MRS. CORINNE TRUE
5338 KENMORE AVENUE, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS

Alláh-u-Abhá! Praise be to God! I have spent a number of days among you, associating with you in love and fragrance. Praise be to God! Your hearts are pure, your faces radiant, your spirits exhilarated through the glad tidings of God. I pray in your behalf, seeking heavenly confirmations for you that each one may become a radiant candle, shedding light in the world of humanity. May you become the quintessence of love. May you prove to be the effulgence of God, replete with the efficacy of the Holy Spirit and the cause of unity and fellowship in the world of humanity, for today mankind has the greatest need of love and agreement. If the world should remain as it is today, great danger will face it. But if reconciliation and unity are witnessed, if security and confidence be established, if with heart and soul we strive in order that the teachings of Bahá’u’lláh may find effective penetration in the realities of humankind, inducing fellowship and accord, binding together the hearts of the various religions and uniting divergent peoples, the world of mankind shall attain peace and composure, the will of God will become the will of man and the earth a veritable habitation of angels. Souls shall be educated, vice be dispelled, the virtues of the world of humanity prevail, materialism pass away, religion be strengthened and prove to be the bond which shall cement together the hearts of men.

In the world of existence there are various bonds which unite human hearts, but not one of these bonds is completely effective. The first and foremost is the bond of family relationship, which is not an efficient unity, for how often it happens that disagreement and divergence rend asunder this close tie of association. The bond of patriotism may be a means of fellowship and agreement, but oneness of native land will not completely cement human hearts; for if we review history, we shall find that people of the same race and native land have frequently waged war against each other. Often in civil strife they have shed the same racial blood and destroyed the possessions of their own native kind. Therefore, this bond is not sufficient. Another means of seeming unity is the bond of political association, where governments and rulers have been allied for reasons of intercourse and mutual protection, but which agreement and union afterward became subject to change and violent hatred even to the extreme of war and bloodshed. It is evident that political oneness is not permanently effective.

The source of perfect unity and love in the world of existence is the bond and oneness of reality. When the divine and fundamental reality enters human hearts and lives, it conserves and protects all states and conditions of mankind, establishing that intrinsic oneness of the world of humanity which can only come into being through the efficacy of the Holy Spirit. For the Holy Spirit is like unto the life in the human body, which blends all differences of parts and members in unity and agreement. Consider how numerous are these parts and members, but the oneness of the animating spirit of life unites them all in perfect combination. It establishes such a unity in the bodily organism that if any part is subjected to injury or becomes diseased, all the other parts and functions sympathetically respond and suffer, owing to the perfect oneness existing. Just as the human spirit of life is the cause of coordination among the various parts of the human organism, the Holy Spirit is the controlling cause of the unity and coordination of mankind. That is to say, the bond or oneness of humanity cannot be effectively established save through the power of the Holy Spirit, for the world of humanity is a composite body, and the Holy Spirit is the animating principle of its life.

Therefore, we must strive in order that the power of the Holy Spirit may become effective throughout the world of mankind, that it may confer a new quickening life upon the body politic of the nations and peoples and that all may be guided to the protection and shelter of the Word of God. Then this human world will become angelic, earthly darkness pass away and celestial illumination flood the horizons, human defects be effaced and divine virtues become resplendent. This is possible and real, but only through the power of the Holy Spirit. Today the greatest need of the world is the animating, unifying presence of the Holy Spirit. Until it becomes effective, penetrating and interpenetrating hearts and spirits, and until perfect, reasoning faith shall be implanted in the minds of men, it will be impossible for the social body to be inspired with security and confidence. Nay, on the contrary, enmity and strife will increase day by day, and the differences and divergences of nations will be woefully augmented. Continual additions to the armies and navies of the world will be made, and the fear and certainty of the great pandemic war—the war unparalleled in history—will be intensified; for armament, heretofore limited, is now being increased upon a colossal scale. Conditions are becoming acute, drawing nigh unto the degree of men warring upon the seas, warring upon the plains, warring in the very atmosphere with a violence unknown in former centuries. With the growth of armament and preparation the dangers are increasingly great.

We must use our utmost endeavors in order that the Holy Spirit may influence minds and hearts toward peace, the bounties of God surround, the divine effulgences become successive, human souls advance, minds expand in wider vision, souls become more holy and the world of humanity be rid of its great menace. For the betterment of the world Bahá’u’lláh endured all the hardships, ordeals and vicissitudes of life, sacrificing His very being and comfort, forfeiting His estates, possessions and honor—all that pertains to human existence—not for one year, nay, rather, for nearly fifty years. During this long period He was subjected to persecution and abuse, was cast into prison, was banished from His native land, underwent severities and humiliation and was exiled four times. He was first exiled from Persia to Baghdád, thence to Constantinople, thence to Rumelia and finally to the great prison-fortress of ‘Akká in Syria, where He passed the remainder of His life. Every day a new oppression and abuse was heaped upon Him until He winged His flight from the dungeon to the supreme world and returned to His Lord. He endured these ordeals and difficulties in order that this earthly human world might become heavenly, that the illumination of the divine Kingdom should become a reality in human hearts, that the individual members of mankind might progress, the power of the Holy Spirit increase its efficacy and penetration and the happiness of the world of humanity be assured. He desired for all tranquillity and composure and exercised loving-kindness toward the nations regardless of conditions and differences. He addressed humanity, saying, “O humankind! Verily, ye are all the leaves and fruits of one tree; ye are all one. Therefore, associate in friendship; love one another; abandon prejudices of race; dispel forever this gloomy darkness of human ignorance, for the century of light, the Sun of Reality hath appeared. Now is the time for affiliation, and now is the period of unity and concord. For thousands of years ye have been contending in warfare and strife. It is enough. Now is the time for unity. Lay aside all self-purposes, and know for a certainty that all men are the servants of one God Who will bind them together in love and agreement.”

Inasmuch as great differences and divergences of denominational belief had arisen throughout the past, every man with a new idea attributing it to God, Bahá’u’lláh desired that there should not be any ground or reason for disagreement among the Bahá’ís. Therefore, with His own pen He wrote the Book of His Covenant, addressing His relations and all people of the world, saying, “Verily, I have appointed One Who is the Center of My Covenant. All must obey Him; all must turn to Him; He is the Expounder of My Book, and He is informed of My purpose. All must turn to Him. Whatsoever He says is correct, for, verily, He knoweth the texts of My Book. Other than He, no one doth know My Book.” The purpose of this statement is that there should never be discord and divergence among the Bahá’ís but that they should always be unified and agreed. In His prayers Bahá’u’lláh also said, “O God! Whosoever violates My Covenant, O God, humiliate him. Verily, whosoever violates My Covenant, O God, erase and efface him.” In all His Tablets, among which is the Tablet of the Branch, He has mentioned and explained the attributes and qualities of the Personage to Whom He referred in the Book of His Covenant. He has fully expounded the function and potency of that Personage, so that no one shall say, “I understand this from the writings of Bahá’u’lláh,” for He has appointed the Center, or Expounder, of the Book. He said, “Verily, He is the appointed one; other than He, there is none,” intending that no sects or prejudices should be formed, and preventing every man here and there with a new thought from creating dissension and variance. It is as though a king should appoint a governor-general. Whosoever obeys him, obeys the king. Whosoever violates and disobeys him, violates the king. Therefore, whosoever obeys the Center of the Covenant appointed by Bahá’u’lláh has obeyed Bahá’u’lláh, and whosoever disobeys Him has disobeyed Bahá’u’lláh. It has nothing to do with Him (‘Abdu’l‑Bahá) at all—precisely as the governor-general appointed by the king—whosoever obeys the governor-general obeys the king; whosoever disobeys the governor-general disobeys the king.

Therefore, you must read the Tablets of Bahá’u’lláh. You must read the Tablet of the Branch and regard that which He has so clearly stated. Beware! Beware! lest anyone should speak from the authority of his own thoughts or create a new thing out of himself. Beware! Beware! According to the explicit Covenant of Bahá’u’lláh you should care nothing at all for such a person. Bahá’u’lláh shuns such souls. I have expounded these things for you, for the conservation and protection of the teachings of Bahá’u’lláh, in order that you may be informed, lest any souls shall deceive you and lest any souls shall cause suspicion among you. You must love all people, and yet if any souls put you in doubt, you must know that Bahá’u’lláh is severed from them. Whosoever works for unity and fellowship is a servant of Bahá’u’lláh, and Bahá’u’lláh is his assistant and helper. I ask God that He may cause you to be the very means of agreement and unity, that He may make you radiant, merciful, heavenly children of the divine Kingdom; that you may advance day by day; that you may become as bright as these lamps, bestowing light upon all humanity. Salutations and farewell!

Baha’i Sabbath: Rahmat 17, 172 B.E. (7/10/2015)

Friday, July 10th, 2015

Quaff then, O My brother, from the living waters that We have caused to flow in the oceans of these words. Methinks the seas of grandeur are surging within them, and the gems of divine virtue are shining within and upon them. Divest then thyself of that which debarreth thee from this fathomless crimson sea, and to the cry of “In the name of God and by His grace!” immerse thyself therein. Let the fear of no one dismay thee. Trust in the Lord, thy God, for He is sufficient unto whosoever trusteth in Him. He, verily, shall protect thee, and in Him shalt thou abide in safety.

Know thou, moreover, that in this most hallowed and resplendent city thou shalt find the wayfarer to be lowly before all men and humble before all things. For naught doth he behold save that he perceiveth God therein. He beholdeth the effulgent glories of God in the lights of His Revelation that have encompassed the Sinai of creation. In this station the wayfarer must not claim the seat of honour in any gathering or walk before others in the desire to vaunt and exalt himself. Rather must he regard himself as standing at all times in the presence of his Lord. He must not wish for anyone that which he doth not wish for himself, nor speak that which he would not bear to hear spoken by another, nor yet desire for any soul that which he would not have desired for himself. It befitteth him, rather, to walk upon the earth with undeviating steps in the kingdom of His new creation.

Holy Day: The Martyrdom Of The Bab. Rahmat 16, 172 B.E. (7/9/2015)

Thursday, July 9th, 2015

This treatise was written in reply to a seeker who had asked how the promised Mihdí could have become transformed into ‘Alí-Muḥammad (the Báb). The opportunity provided by this question was seized to elaborate on a number of subjects, all of which are of use and benefit both to them that seek and to those who have attained, could ye perceive with the eye of divine virtue.

Baha’u’llah, Preface to Gems of Divine Mysteries

*****

I heard, with Mine own ears, one of their divines proclaim: “Should all these signs come to pass and the long-awaited Qá’im appear, and should He ordain, with respect to even our secondary laws, aught beyond that which hath been revealed in the Qur’án, we would assuredly charge Him with imposture, put Him to death, and refuse forever to acknowledge Him”, and other statements such as these deniers make. And all this, when the Day of Resurrection hath been ushered in, and the Trumpet hath been sounded, and all the denizens of earth and heaven have been gathered together, and the Balance hath been appointed, and the Bridge hath been laid, and the Verses have been sent down, and the Sun hath shone forth, and the stars have been blotted out, and the souls have been raised to life, and the breath of the Spirit hath blown, and the angels have been arrayed in ranks, and Paradise hath been brought nigh, and Hell made to blaze! These things have all come to pass, and yet to this day not a single one of these people hath recognized them! They all lie as dead within their own shrouds, save those who have believed and repaired unto God, who rejoice in this day in His celestial paradise, and who tread the path of His good-pleasure.

Veiled as they remain within their own selves, the generality of the people have failed to perceive the sweet accents of holiness, inhale the fragrance of mercy, or seek guidance, as bidden by God, from those who are the custodians of the Scriptures. He proclaimeth, and His word, verily, is the truth: “Ask ye, therefore, of them that have the custody of the Scriptures, if ye know it not.” Nay rather, they have turned aside from them and followed instead the Sámirí of their own idle fancies. Thus have they strayed far from the mercy of their Lord and failed to attain unto His Beauty in the day of His presence. For no sooner had He come unto them with a sign and a testimony from God than the same people who had eagerly awaited the day of His Revelation, who had called upon Him in the daytime and in the night season, who had implored Him to gather them together in His presence and to grant that they may lay down their lives in His path, be led aright by His guidance and illumined by His light—this very people condemned and reviled Him, and inflicted upon Him such cruelties as transcend both My capacity to tell and thine ability to hear them. My very pen crieth out at this moment and the ink weepeth sore and groaneth. By God! Wert thou to hearken with thine inner ear, thou wouldst in truth hear the lamentations of the denizens of heaven; and wert thou to remove the veil from before thine eyes, thou wouldst behold the Maids of Heaven overcome and the holy souls overwhelmed, beating upon their faces and fallen upon the dust.

Alas, alas, for that which befell Him Who was the Manifestation of the Self of God, and for that which He and His loved ones were made to suffer! The people inflicted upon them what no soul hath ever inflicted upon another, and what no infidel hath wrought against a believer or suffered at his hand. Alas, alas! That immortal Being sat upon the darksome dust, the Holy Spirit lamented in the retreats of glory, the pillars of the Throne crumbled in the exalted dominion, the joy of the world was changed into sorrow in the crimson land, and the voice of the Nightingale was silenced in the golden realm. Woe betide them for what their hands have wrought and for what they have committed!

*****

But as to Him Who appeared in the year sixty, He standeth in need of neither transformation nor interpretation, for His name was Muḥammad, and He was a descendent of the Imáms of the Faith. Thus it can be truly said of Him that He was the son of Ḥasan, as is undoubtedly clear and evident unto thine eminence. Nay, He it is Who fashioned that name and created it for Himself, were ye to observe with the eye of God.

Baha’u’llah, Gems of Divine Mysteries (excerpts)
