Rewards and Divine Assistance for Those Who Teach the Faith of God


‘‘T swear by God! That which hath been destined for him who aideth My Cause excelleth the treasures of the earth.

‘*“Whoso openeth his lips in this day, and maketh mention of the name of his Lord, the hosts of Divine inspiration shall descend upon him from the horizon of My name, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. On him shall also descend the Concourse on high, each bearing aloft a chalice of pure light. Thus hath it been foreordained in the realm of God’s Revelation, by the behest of Him Who is the All-Glorious, the Most Powerful.’’—Baha’u’Ilah

(Quoted in The Advent of Divine Justice, p.71)

    • Whosoever quickens one soul in this Cause is

like unto one quickening all the servants and the Lord shall bring him forth in the day of resurrection into the Ridvan of oneness, adorned with the Mantle of Himself, the protector, the mighty, the generous! Thus will ye assist your Lord, and naught else save this shall ever be mentioned in this day before God, your Lord and the Lord of your forefathers.’’—Baha’u ’]lah (Published in Baha'i World Faith, p. 206)

    • Rest ye assured that if a soul arises in the utmost

perseverance and raises the Call of the Kingdom and resolutely promulgates 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.” —‘Abdu’l-Baha

(Published in Star of the West, 10 [23

November 1919], 265)

“It is known and clear that today the unseen Divine assistance encompasseth those who deliver the Message. And if the work of

delivering the Message be neglected, the assistance shall be entirely cut off, for it is impossible that the friends of God could receive assistance unless they be engaged in delivering the Message.’’—‘Abdu’1-Baha

(Published in Bahd’i World Faith, p. 385)
