If the spirit were not immortal, how could the Manifestations of God endure such terrible trials? (93:4) Why did Christ Jesus suffer the fearful death on the cross? (93:5) Why did Muhammad bear persecutions? (93:6) Why did the Bab make the supreme sacrifice and why did Baha'u'llah pass the years of his life in prison? (93:7) Why should all this suffering have been, if not to prove the everlasting life of the spirit? (93:8) Christ suffered, He accepted all His trials because of the immortality of His spirit. If a man reflects he will understand the spiritual significance of the law of progress; how all moves from the inferior to the superior degree.
(93:9)
