`ABDU'L-BAHÁ'S HISTORIC APPEAL
| |
1 |
Message to 1936 Convention
| |
2 |
Convey to American believers abiding gratitude efforts unitedly exerted
in teaching field. Inaugurated campaigns should be vigorously pursued,
systematically extended. Appeal to assembled delegates ponder historic appeal
voiced by `Abdu'l-Bahá in Tablets of the Divine Plan. Urge earnest
deliberation with incoming National Assembly to insure its complete
fulfilment. First Century of Bahá'í era drawing to a close. Humanity
entering outer fringes most perilous stage its existence. Opportunities of
present hour unimaginably precious. Would to God every State within American
Republic and every Republic in American continent might ere termination of this
glorious century
[1]
embrace the light of the Faith of Bahá'u'lláh and
establish structural basis of His World Order.
Cablegram May 1, 1936
