As to those who truly believe in God and are well assured in
the signs revealed by Him, perchance He will graciously forgive them the things
their hands have committed, and will grant them admission into the precincts of
His mercy. He, in truth, is the Ever-Forgiving, the Compassionate. But the
verdict of divine chastisement is pronounced against those who have turned away
disdainfully from Me and have repudiated the conclusive proofs and the unerring
Book with which God hath invested Me, and on the Day of Severing they shall
find no protector or helper.
- The Báb (From a Tablet to Muhammad Shah;
‘Selections from the Writings of the Báb)
