"Dost thou believe thou hast the power to frustrate His Will, to hinder Him from executing His judgment, or to deter Him from exercising His sovereignty?... Nothing whatsoever in the whole of creation can thwart His Purpose. Cast away, therefore, the mere conceits thou dost follow, for mere conceit can never take the place of truth." (Gl 220) (30:5) "Verily He Who is the Day- Star of Truth and Revealer of the Supreme Being holdeth, for all time, undisputed sovereignty over all that is in heaven and on earth, though no man be found on earth to obey Him." He "holdeth in His grasp the kingdom of the entire creation." "Divine Will... pervadeth all that is in the heavens and... on earth." (Iqan 97; Bwf 41; Gl 51) (30:6) "O God of Mercy, Thou Whose power pervadeth all created things,... in Thy grasp are the reigns of all that are in the heavens and on the earth." (Esw 31; Bpr 137)
(30:7)
