Lift up your heads, O ye gates; Even lift them up, ye everlasting doors. And the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. - Psalm 24:10 Dear Angels, In all the great religions, a Day of profound significance, the Last Day, is foretold as a time of reckoning for all of humanity. In this regard, the Qur'an informs the faithful that: There is no piety in turning your faces toward the east or toward the west, but he is pious who believeth in God and the Last Day. It was Muhammad's appeal to the faithful to recognize the peerless Beauty that would appear on the Last Day, also announced by Zoroaster: When a thousand two hundred and some years have passed from the inception of the religion of the Arabian and the overthrow of the kingdom of Iran and the degradation of the followers of My religion, a descendant of the Iranian kings will be raised up as a Prophet.Awaited in Buddhism as the Buddha of Compassion, His glorious predecessor, THE BAB, attributed to Him His new Name -the Greatest Name- and praised Him this way: The glory of Him Whom God shall make manifest is immeasurably above every other glory, and His majesty is far above every other majesty. His beauty excelleth every other embodiment of beauty, and His grandeur immensely exceedeth every other manifestation of grandeur. Every light paleth before the radiance of His light, and every other exponent of mercy falleth short before the tokens of His mercy. Every other perfection is as naught in face of His consummate perfection, and every other display of might is as nothing before His absolute might. His names are superior to all other names. His good-pleasure taketh precedence over any other expression of good-pleasure. His pre-eminent exaltation is far above the reach of every other symbol of exaltation. The splendour of His appearance far surpasseth that of any other appearance. His divine concealment is far more profound than any other concealment. His loftiness is immeasurably above every other loftiness. His gracious favour is unequalled by any other evidence of favour. His power transcendeth every power. His sovereignty is invincible in the face of every other sovereignty. His celestial dominion is exalted far above every other dominion. His knowledge pervadeth all created things, and His consummate power extendeth over all beings. This divine Manifestation of incomparable grandeur is BAHA'U'LLAH (the Glory of God), prophet founder of the Baha'i
