Dear Friends
Any thoughts on the following two quotations would be much appreciated. regards, Firouz
"In the treasuries of the knowledge of God there
lieth concealed a knowledge which, when applied, will largely, though not wholly, eliminate fear. This knowledge, however, should be taught from childhood, as it will greatly aid in its elimination. Whatever decreaseth fear increaseth courage. Should the Will of God assist Us, there would flow out from the Pen of the Divine Expounder a lengthy exposition of that which hath been mentioned, and there would be revealed, in the field of arts and sciences, what would renew the world and the nations. A word hath, likewise, been written down and recorded by the Pen of the Most High in the Crimson Book which is capable of fully disclosing that force which is hid in men, nay of redoubling its potency. We implore God--exalted and glorified be He--to graciously assist His servants to do that which is pleasing and acceptable unto Him." Baha'u'llah EPISTLE TO THE SON OF THE WOLF pp 32 "Unfortunately it would seem that the knowledge `which
could largely eliminate fear' has not been disclosed or identified by Baha'u'llah, so we do not know what it is." DIRECTIVES FROM THE GUARDIAN no. 46 "And if he feareth not God, God will make him to fear all
things; whereas all things fear him who feareth God." Baha'u'llah THE SEVEN VALLEYS pp 58 You are subscribed to Baha'i Studies as: mailto:archive@mail-archive.com To unsubscribe, send a blank email to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe, use subscribe bahai-st in the message body to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Baha'i Studies is available through the following: Mail - mailto:bahai-st@list.jccc.edu Web - http://list.jccc.edu/read/?forum=bahai-st News - news://list.jccc.edu/bahai-st Public - http://www.escribe.com/religion/bahaist Old Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.net New Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.edu |
