CROWNING FEATURE OF ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER: THE UNIVERSAL HOUSE OF JUSTICE
| |
1 |
During this Formative Age of the Faith, and in the course of
present and succeeding epochs, the last and crowning stage in the
erection of the framework of the Administrative Order of the Faith of
Bahá'u'lláh--the election of the Universal House of Justice--will have
been completed, the Kitáb-i-Aqdas, the Mother-Book of His Revelation,
will have been codified and its laws promulgated, the Lesser Peace
will have been established, the unity of mankind will have been
achieved and its maturity attained, the Plan conceived by `Abdu'l-Bahá
will have been executed, the emancipation of the Faith from the
fetters of religious orthodoxy will have been effected, and its independent
religious status will have been universally recognized, whilst in the
course of the Golden Age, destined to consummate the Dispensation
itself, the banner of the Most Great Peace, promised by its Author,
will have been unfurled, the World Bahá'í Commonwealth will have
emerged in the plenitude of its power and splendor, and the birth and
efflorescence of a world civilization, the child of that Peace, will have
conferred its inestimable blessings upon all mankind.
