Let your principal concern be to rescue the fallen from the
slough of impending extinction, and to help him embrace the ancient Faith of
God. Your behavior towards your neighbor should be such as to manifest clearly
the signs of the one true God, for ye are the first among men to be re-created
by His Spirit, the first to adore and bow the knee before Him, the first to
circle round His throne of glory.
- Baha'u'llah (Gleanings from the Writings of
Baha'u'llah)
