Every thing must needs have an origin and every building a
builder. Verily, the Word of God is the Cause which hath preceded the
contingent world—a world which is adorned with the splendours of the Ancient of
Days, yet is being renewed and regenerated at all times. Immeasurably exalted
is the God of Wisdom Who hath raised this sublime structure.
- Baha’u’llah (‘Tablets of Baha’u’llah revealed after the Kitab-i-Aqdas’)
