The world's equilibrium hath been upset through
the vibrating influence of this most great, this new
World Order. Mankind's ordered life hath been
revolutionized through the agency of this unique, this
wondrous System -- the like of which mortal eyes have
never witnessed.
(Baha'u'llah, The Kitab-i-Aqdas, p. 85 K181)
Beseech ye the one true God to grant that all men may be graciously
assisted to fulfil that which is acceptable in Our sight. Soon will
the present-day order be rolled up, and a new one spread out in its
stead.
(Gleanings from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, p. 6)
The day is approaching when We will have rolled up the world and all
that is therein, and spread out a new order in its stead. He, verily,
is powerful over all things.
(Gleanings from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, p. 313)
"Address yourselves to the promotion of the well-being and
tranquillity of the children of men. Bend your minds and wills to the
education of the peoples and kindreds of the earth, that haply the
dissensions that divide it may, through the power of the Most Great
Name, be blotted out from its face, and all mankind become the
upholders of one Order, and the inhabitants of one City.
(Gleanings from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, p. 333)
