YE ARE THE ANGELS

Verily, I, from this brilliant and Blessed Spot, speak to you face to

face, while ye are in that far distant country, saying:

"O people of loyalty, O people of faithfulness, O people who are awakened

by the Breath of God, O people who are inhaling the scent of life from the

Spirit of God! The path hath become smooth, the way straightened, the

carpet of the Kingdom is spread, the Tabernacle hath been elevated upon

the Hill of Might, the powers of heaven have been shaken, the corners of

the earth have quaked, the sun has been darkened, the moon ceased to give

light, the stars have fallen, the nations of the earth have lamented, and

the Son of Man hath come upon the clouds of heaven with power and great

glory, and He hath sent His angels with the sound of the great trumpet,

and no one knows the meaning of these emblems save the wise and informed.

"Ye are the angels, if your feet be firm, your spirits rejoiced, your

secret thoughts pure, your eyes consoled, your ears opened, your breasts

dilated with joy, and your souls gladdened, and if you arise to assist the

Covenant, to resist dissension and to be attracted to the Effulgence!

Verily, I say unto you that the Word of God has assuredly been explained

and has become an evident sign and a strong and solid proof, and its

traces shall be spread in the East and West, and to these all heads shall

bow and all souls shall submit and kneel down with their faces to the

ground."
