What 'Abdu'l-Bahá States About the Hands of the Cause vs. What the Covenant-breaking Hands Say About Themselves

'Abdu'l-Bahá from His sacred Will and Testament: "The Hands of the Cause of God is under the direction of the Guardian of the Cause of God. He must continually urge them to strive and endeavor to the utmost of their ability to diffuse the sweet savors of God, and to guide all the peoples of the world, for it is the light of Divine Guidance that causeth all the universe to be illumined. To disregard, though it be for a moment, this absolute command which is binding upon everyone, is in no wise permitted" "For he is, after ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, the Guardian of the Cause of God, the Afnán, the Hands (pillars) of the Cause and the beloved of the Lord must obey him and turn unto him. He that obeyeth him not, hath not obeyed God; he that turneth away from him, hath turned away from God and he that denieth him, hath denied the True One." "upon the Hands (pillars) of the Cause of God that have diffused widely the Divine Fragrances, declared His Proofs, proclaimed His Faith, published abroad His Law, detached themselves from all things but Him, stood for righteousness in this world, and kindled the Fire of the Love of God in the very hearts and souls of His servants;" 'Abdu'l-Bahá from Mahmud's Diary: "The Hands of the Cause in this dispensation are not heirs to any name or title." The Hands in Bahá'í World, Vol. 13 (published 13 years after the passing of Shoghi Effendi and their crime of discarding the Executive Head of the Bahá'í government, the institution of the Guardianship): "Revered Hands" (pp. 317, 319, 323, 331, 332, 399). "Cherished Hand of the Cause," (p. 325). "The Supreme Body of the Bahá'í world community," (This statement represents a coup d'état on the part of the Hands, p. 345). Shoghi Effendi offered the following interprettion of the Holy Text in his cablegram dated June 4, 1957: "GUARDIANSHIP, FOREMOST RANK DIVINELY ORDAINED ADMINISTRATIVE HIERARCHY WORLD ORDER BAHA'U'LLAH...HANDS TWIN FUNCTIONS PROTECTING PROPAGATING FAITH." (p. 338). The Hands omitted parts of the cablegram where Shoghi Effendi felt compelled to provide the order of hierarchy within the Bahá'í Administration: 1st the Guardianship; 2nd the Universal House of Justice; 3rd the Hands of the Cause; 4th the National Spiritual Assemblies. If Bahá'ís would obey the command to independently study the Faith, the crime of eliminating the Executive Head of the Faith, the institution of the Guardianship, becomes glaringly apparent.

The Covenant Trilogy by Charles Gaines, 1960

  The GUARDIANSHIP AND ADMINISTRATION FIRST INTRODUCTION             In the face of such trials and tests as these times are likely to lay upon the entire Baha'i World, it is imperative that we take a second look at Baha'i and see what it is that this beloved Faith of ours teaches, stands for and requires, if it is to be triumphant over the sinister forces of nature and of an unregenerate humanity.  It is clearly evident how “humanity is languishing upon a bed of sickness, sore-tried and disillusioned.” and it behooves all men to examine anew the remedy that has been prescribed by the Divine Physician, which alone can “deliver mankind from this desolating affliction” and “fuse its discordant, elements” into one organic, indivisible whole; to ponder dispassionately and penetrate, to depths unparalleled, the “wholesome medicine”, the “Elixir” that can “cleanse and revive” a humanity sick unto death; to st...

E.S. Yazdani, Fifth Bahá'í Guardian: A Response to “The Bahá’í Faith 1957–1988: A Survey of Contemporary Developments.” by Smith-Momen

  O THOU GLORY OF THE MOST GLORIOUS Office of Fifth Guardian of the Bahá’í Faith   When the fundamental basis of the Bahá’í Faith is interfered with , the very foundation of the Bahá’í Administration changes. Furthermore, the Cause of Bahá’u’lláh deviates from its divinely established course; the authentic Covenant of Bahá’u’lláh, as defined in The Kitáb-i-Ahd , The Kitáb-i-Aqdas , and The Will and Testament of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá , is replaced by a man-made covenant, altering the standards of the Bahá’í Faith; progress and development in the present administration in Haifa as well as in the worldwide community of believers lose their meaning and is no longer relevant. This is true regardless of any period surveyed or comparison made to another time.   This is the case in an article written by Peter Smith and Moojan Momen. The article appeared on Bahá’ì Library Online 1 , as well as on Academia 1 , under the title, “The Bahá’í Faith 1957–1988...

The Current 'Bahá'í' Administration is an Anti-Christ Institution

  The Hands created an anti-Christ organization when they broke the Covenant by discarding the Institution of the Guardianship.   The title ‘Christ’ is synonymous with the word ‘Messiah’.   The word Christ is Greek and Messiah is Hebrew.   Both terms refer to the anointed son of David.   Zechariah 4:11-14 prophesies the coming of two anointed sons of David who will serve the Lord.   Jesus changes a fisherman’s name from Simon to Peter because he accurately identifies Jesus as the awaited Christ.   The name Peter means ‘rock’ which is a symbol used in the New Testament to signify the strength of the church built on logical proofs of fulfilled prophecies; the foundation of humanity’s faith in God.   Rational proofs allow individuals to enjoy a profound level of certitude in their spiritual beliefs.     Unfortunately, while Jesus was alive, nobody understood that He was the Christ prophesied to suffer and die in I...
