The teachings of His Holiness Christ have been promulgated by His Holiness Baha'u'llah who has also revealed new teachings applicable to present conditions in the world of humanity. He has trained the people of the East through the power and protection of the Holy Spirit, cemented the souls of humanity together and established the foundations of international unity. (72:2) Through the power of his words the hearts of the people of all religions have been attuned in harmony. For instance, among the Baha'is in Persia there are Christians, Mohammedans, Zoroastrians, Jews and many others of varying denominations and beliefs who have been brought together in unity and love in the cause of Baha'u'llah. Although these people were formerly hostile and antagonistic, filled with hatred and bitterness toward each other, blood- thirsty and pillaging, considering that animosity and attack were the means of attaining the good- pleasure of God, they have now become loving and filled with the radiant zeal of fellowship and brotherhood, the purpose of them all being service to the world of humanity, promotion of international peace, the unification of the divine religions and deeds of universal philanthropy. By their words and actions they are proving the verity of His Holiness Baha'u'llah.
(72:3)
