Preface to the Bible – On the Revelations of God

The Revelations of God are progressive and universal, serving the evolving needs of humanity across ages. This principle of progressive revelation underscores that divine guidance is revealed in stages, addressing the unique challenges of each era. As Bahá’u’lláh affirms, every age has its own needs, and the teachings of the Manifestations of God serve as the remedy for the ailments of their time.

The Prophets and chosen Ones of God reflect His attributes and act as conduits for humanity to attain the “Presence of God.” Through them, the limitless meanings of God’s Word unfold, offering spiritual solutions to worldly problems. Bahá’u’lláh also reveals that divine guidance extends beyond specific religious laws to a universal revelation, visible in all creation, testifying to God’s inner light.

These teachings invite us to engage deeply with sacred writings, seeking their hidden wisdom to advance not only personal understanding but the collective progress of civilization. The Universal House of Justice continues this progressive mission, applying divine principles to contemporary issues, ensuring the spiritual and material well-being of humanity.
