34 Erelong shall God draw forth, out of the bosom of power, the hands of ascendancy and might, and shall raise up a people who will arise to win victory for this Youth and who will purge mankind from the defilement of the outcast and the ungodly.  These hands will gird up their loins to champion the Faith of God, and will, in My name the Self-Subsistent, the Mighty, subdue the peoples and kindreds of the earth.  They will enter the cities and will inspire with fear the hearts of all their inhabitants.  Such are the evidences of the might of God; how fearful, how vehement is His might, and how justly doth He wield it!  He, verily, ruleth and transcendeth all who are in the heavens and on the earth, and revealeth what He desireth according to a prescribed measure.

35 Should any one of them be called upon to confront all the hosts of creation, he would assuredly prevail through the ascendancy of My Will.  This, verily, is a proof of My power, though My creatures comprehend it not.  This, verily, is a sign of My sovereignty, though My subjects understand it not.  This, verily, is a token of My command, though My servants perceive it not.  This, verily, is an evidence of Mine ascendancy, though none amongst the people is truly thankful for it, save those whose eyes God hath illumined with the light of His knowledge, whose hearts He hath made the repository of His Revelation, and upon whose shoulders He hath placed the weight of His Cause.  These shall inhale the fragrances of the All-Merciful from the garment of His Name, and shall rejoice at all times in the signs and verses of their Lord.  As for those who disbelieve in God, and join partners with Him, they shall indeed incur His wrath, shall be cast into the Fire, and shall be made to dwell, fearful and dismayed, in its depths.  Thus do We expound Our verses, and make plain the truth with clear proofs, that perchance the people may reflect upon the signs of their Lord.

36 O Living Temple!  We have, in very truth, appointed Thee to be the sign of My majesty amidst all that hath been and all that shall be, and have ordained Thee to be the emblem of My Cause betwixt the heavens and the earth, through My word “Be”, and it is!

37 O First Letter of this Temple, betokening the Essence of Divinity!(4) We have made thee the treasury of My Will and the repository of My Purpose unto all who are in the kingdoms of revelation and creation.  This is but a token of the grace of Him Who is the Help in Peril, the Self-Subsisting.

38 O Second Letter of this Temple, betokening My name, the Almighty!  We have made thee the manifestation of Our sovereignty and the dayspring of Our Names.  Potent am I to fulfil that which My tongue speaketh.

39 O Third Letter of this Temple, betokening My name, the All-Bountiful!  We have made thee the dawning-place of Our bounty amidst Our creatures and the fountainhead of Our generosity amidst Our people.  Powerful am I in My dominion.  Nothing whatsoever of all that hath been created in the heavens or on the earth can escape My knowledge, and I am the True One, the Knower of things unseen.
