O ye blessed souls! Although ye are undergoing crucial tests in view of the repeated and assiduous attempts
of some people to shake the faith of the friends in Los
Angeles, yet ye are under the guarding eye of the bounty
of Bahá'u'lláh and are assisted by legions of angels.

Walk, therefore, with a sure step and engage with the
utmost assurance and confidence in the promulgation of the
divine fragrances, the glorification of the Word of God and
firmness in the Covenant. Rest ye assured that if a soul
ariseth in the utmost perseverance and raiseth the Call of
the Kingdom and resolutely promulgateth the Covenant,
be he an insignificant ant he shall be enabled to drive away
the formidable elephant from the arena, and if he be a
feeble moth he shall cut to pieces the plumage of the
rapacious vulture.

Endeavour, therefore, that ye may scatter and disperse
the army of doubt and of error with the power of the holy
utterances. This is my exhortation and this is my counsel.
Do not quarrel with anybody, and shun every form of
dispute. Utter the Word of God. If he accepteth it the
desired purpose is attained, and if he turneth away leave
him to himself and trust to God.

Such is the attribute of those who are firm in the Covenant.
