OVER THE WALL

PART I
 
CHAPTER ONE

Once upon a time not so long ago a group of people went against Shoghi Effendi in a very offensive way. This was for their own aggrandizement and empowerment. To go against Shoghi Effendi is strictly forbidden by God as written by 'Abdu'l-Baha in the Will and Testament of 'Abdu'l-Baha on page 11. To disobey him [Shoghi Effendi] is to disobey God:
Whoso rebelleth against him [Shoghi Effendi]… hath rebelled against God; whoso opposeth him [Shoghi Effendi] hath opposed God;… whoso disputeth with him [Shoghi Effendi] hath disputed with God; whoso denieth him [Shoghi Effendi] hath denied God; whoso disbelieveth in him [Shoghi Effendi] hath disbelieved in God; whoso deviateth, separateth himself and turneth aside from him hath in truth deviated separated himself and turned aside from God. May the wrath, the fierce indignation, the vengeance of God rest upon him! The mighty stronghold shall remain impregnable and safe through obedience to him [Shoghi Effendi] who is the guardian of the Cause of God. It is incumbent upon the members of the House of Justice, upon all the Aghsan, the Afnan, the Hands of the Cause of God to show their obedience, submissiveness and subordination unto the guardian of the Cause of God [Shoghi Effendi], to turn unto him [Shoghi Effendi] and be lowly before him [Shoghi Effendi]. He that opposeth him [Shoghi Effendi] hath opposed the True One, will make a breach [a division or split] in the Cause of God, will subvert His word and will become a manifestation of the Center of Sedition….

Shoghi Effendi, not having a biological son to succeed him, set up a successorship in a council in embryonic form that everyone was to turn to upon his passing. This council was an embryonic Universal House of Justice, and was called the first International Baha'i Council. It consisted of two parts, the executive head and the legislative body. In conformity with 'Abdu'l-Baha's Will and Testament, which is the charter1 for the World Order of Baha'u'llah. Anything else would not be Baha'u'llah's Universal House of Justice. He placed 'Abdu'l-Baha's adopted son to be its president, setting up the executive branch. All of its nine members were also appointed by Shoghi Effendi, forming the body. This council was to go through four stages to become the Universal House of Justice. It was, with the membership appointed by him, to become a world court on Mt. Carmel in 1963. Later its body (not the head) was to be elected to form the International Tribunal, that was to bring peace to the world, then it would effloresce into the Universal House of Justice.
Shoghi Effendi knew that he could not set up a Universal House of Justice during his lifetime, as it was to be elected by the believers of all nations. 'Abdu'l-Baha, during his lifetime, contemplated setting up the Universal House of Justice, as it was becoming possible then, as in Russia there was a large Baha'i community, in fact the first Baha'i temple was built in Iscabad, Russia. But after the passing of 'Abdu'l-Baha in 1921, Russia became communist and atheistic. All religions were banned. The Baha'i temple was confiscated and taken over by the government. It was then secularized by being turned into a library or museum and then it was finally destroyed. It was thus impossible for Shoghi Effendi to set up a Universal House of Justice in accordance with the provisions of the Will and Testament, which is the charter for the Universal House of Justice as there were no longer any active Baha'is, or Baha'i administration in Russia. Therefore no one could set up a Universal House of Justice according to the provisions of 'Abdu'l-Baha's Will and Testament prior to the fall of communism in Russia. 
And now, concerning the House of Justice which God hath ordained as the source of all good and freed from all error, it must be elected by universal suffrage, that is, by the believers. Its members must be manifestations of the fear of God and daysprings of knowledge and understanding, must be steadfast in God's faith and the well-wishers of all mankind. By this House is meant the Universal House of Justice, that is, in all countries a secondary House of Justice must be instituted, and these secondary Houses of Justice must elect the members of the Universal one (Will and Testament, p. 14). 

No place in Baha'i scriptures or in any of Shoghi Effendi's writings or discourses are the "Hands" designated to be Shoghi Effendi's successor or to take over after his passing. In fact the "Hands" ceased to be Hands with the last breath of Shoghi Effendi. They are to function only under the direction of a living guardian, that is, under the direction of Shoghi Effendi. They claimed the authority, that it was them who were to carry out Shoghi Effendi's plan. Then the defunct "Hands" went against Shoghi Effendi. They took over and prevented the Baha'is from turning to Shoghi Effendi's successor, the first International Baha'i Council, and set up an administration of their own that is strange to the Baha'i faith, going against each and every one of Shoghi Effendi's writings for the establishment of the Universal House of Justice. There was not one thing that was spared—a complete violation of everything that Shoghi Effendi stood for.
The first thing they did was bypass the first International Baha'i Council, the successor to Shoghi Effendi, and scrap the executive branch which is an integral part of the Universal House of Justice. There are two parts to the Universal House of Justice—the executive head and the legislative body. 
The legislative body must reinforce the executive, the excecutive must aid and assist the legislative, so that through the close union and harmony of these two forces, the foundation of fairness and justice may become firm and strong, that all the regions of the world may become even as Paradise itself (Will and Testament, p. 15).2 
The executive is the sacred head and the distinguished member for life of that body (Will and Testament, p. 14). 
Now the members of the House of Justice have not, individually, essential sinlessness [infallibility]; but the body [which the head is part] of the House of Justice is under the protection of God: this is called conferred infallibility (Some Answered Questions by 'Abdu'l-Baha, p. 199). 

Without these two parts there could be no infallibility, and without infallibility there could be no justice, and without justice there could be no Baha'i Universal House of Justice. The first International Baha'i Council, which was the successor to Shoghi Effendi and was appointed by him, consisted of these two parts: the appointed hereditary head and the other appointed members of the body. 
Two years later in 1959 when the Hands were firmly established in their violation they dismantled the International Baha'i Council altogether, thus doing away completely with everything Shoghi Effendi had set up for the establishment of the Universal House of Justice. Not only did they go against Shoghi Effendi and God, they were in strict violation of the provisions of the Will and Testament of 'Abdu'l-Baha, which is part of the Covenant of Baha'u'llah, making them Covenant-breakers of the worst kind. 
They did away with Shoghi Effendi's plan entirely, that he laid out in his Ten Year World Crusade, a plan which included this first International Baha'i Council that he set up by appointing both the executive head, which is hereditary, and the legislative body which was to become elected sometime after it was to become a world court on Mt. Carmel in Ridvan 1963. Instead, they set up some weird monster, a counterfeit body without a head. The whole Baha'i world should have recognized that this violation was going against Shoghi Effendi, which was going against God, and also it was going against the Will and Testament of 'Abdu'l-Baha which was Covenant-breaking
They had the gall to call this Headless Monster the Universal House of Justice. No how could this Headless Monster be the Baha'i Universal House of Justice, not only for the above reasons, but because Russia was still atheistic with no Baha'i representation. This is the same reason Shoghi Effendi could not set up a Universal House of Justice in its final stage. Therefore he set up the first International Baha'i Council which was the Universal House of Justice in embryo. You see, Shoghi Effendi was infallible, which is why no one was to go against him, whereas the Hands were not infallible and were full of iniquities, becoming the world's greatest enemies of the Cause of God.
Yes, these mischief makers went directly against Shoghi Effendi right down the line and thus are the enemies of God. They split the faith causing a division. They deflected their gross violation from scrutiny and detection of the believers by a switcheroo, labeling as Covenant-breakers those that didn't go along with their split of going against Shoghi Effendi, causing them that went along with their rot to shun the true Baha'is that were very firm in the Covenant and loyal to all of Shoghi Effendi's plans and writings. This was a stroke of Satanic genius, of reversing the meaning of the Will and Testament by having the mainstream Baha'is shun the true believers that are firm in the Covenant and to have them embrace those that were in opposition to Shoghi Effendi. Then to keep the believers from detecting their violating scheme, they shut them out from what they were doing by passing a resolution in their secret conclave3 forbidding the Baha'is from discussing the matter amongst themselves and forbidding them from having any contact at all with those dear souls that were awake and firm in the Covenant. The reason for this resolution is obvious. It was to keep the rank and file believers ignorant of what was going on by keeping them from asking questions using threats of excommunication. Therefore they were successful in keeping the believers from becoming cognizant of the terrible violation of the Hands. The Hands did this to cover up their own violation, and to erect a very strong and impenetrable wall around their violation to keep their foolish followers that are called the mainstream Baha'is from ever learning the truth of the matter. This was carried out by an air of piety, devotion and fidelity (wolves in sheep's clothing). I am not breaking down this solid wall. I can't. But I am going over the wall, as it is said the true Joseph is like a vine that goes over the wall (Genesis 49:22). A minority of the violators, the prophesied 144,000, will turn to the Lamb.4
And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on Mount Zion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's [Baha'u'llah's] name written in their foreheads, [which means they use their intellect to investigate the truth of the matter for themselves] (Revelation 14:1).

Of course these Covenant-breakers could not point to one single thing that we who are under the provisions of the Covenant are doing that could in any way be construed as Covenant-breaking, so they came up with the ridiculous scenario that we were Covenant-breakers because we did not go along with their split, and were thus the cause of disunity. They were using disunity as an excuse to persuade the mainstream Baha'is to shun us. They wanted the entire Baha'i world to be united under their violation of the Covenant and to be in opposition to Shoghi Effendi. Thus their clarion cry is that we who are firm in the Covenant and obedient to Shoghi Effendi were causing disunity. Didn't 'Abdu'l-Baha warn us about this in his Will and Testament?
Beware, beware, lest the days after the ascension (of Baha'u'llah) be repeated, when the Center of Sedition waxed haughty and rebellious and with Divine Unity for his excuse deprived himself and perturbed and poisoned others. No doubt every vainglorious one that purposeth dissension and discord will not openly declare his evil purposes, nay rather, even as impure gold, would he seize upon divers measures and various pretexts that he may separate [split] the gathering of the people of Baha… (Will and Testament, p. 12).

There is only one way to have unity in the Baha'i faith and that is by the Covenant. Not only is the Covenant of Baha'u'llah, as delineated by 'Abdu'l-Baha in his Will and Testament, the basis of unity in the Baha'i faith, it is the basis of Shoghi Effendi's administration. It is the only basis for unity throughout the entire world. What the Hands were establishing was a unity in opposition to Shoghi Effendi and the Covenant. Thus they were in opposition to both Shoghi Effendi and the Covenant. 
Most people don't go by proofs or by what is right but instead go with the mainstream of anything, figuring so many people couldn't be wrong. That way they don't have to think for themselves or to think at all. But this is proven the worst way. Jesus said:
Enter by the narrow gate, for the gate is wide and the way is easy, that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard, that leads to life, and those who find it are few. Beware of false prophets [or leaders] who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves (Matthew 7:13-15 RSV).

Look, when Jesus came all the people turned against him. Even his apostles left him when he was arrested. The only one that believed him when he was hanging on the cross was the robber next to him. Look, the mass of the Muslims went against their Promised One, the Bab, causing ten thousand of his followers to be martyred along with him. Baha'u'llah is the Promised One for all the religions, yet the people go with the crowd. If they would just investigate they would all become believers. It is the failure to investigate that keeps the people and the religions of the world divided and will cause the great catastrophe.

CHRIST

Another subject that is of utmost importance is the meaning of the word Christ. Most of the Christians believe it means savior, or God, or son of God, or maybe it's the last name of Jesus (like Joseph Christ or Mary Christ), or some other imagination. This has led almost all the Christians astray. Some know that it means anointed, but anointed of what? In reality it means an anointed male sperm descendant of King David. The very first line of the New Testament states: "The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David…." In verse 16 it shows that Joseph was Jesus' father. But the deluded Christians claim that God was Jesus' literal father. If this is so then Jesus could not be the Christ as God is not a descendant of King David. Paul tells us that: 
Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord which was made of the seed [sperma, Greek] of David according to the flesh; And [only] declared to be the Son of God according to the spirit… (Romans 1:3). 

Mary had an ovum and Joseph had the sperm of David. The point of this is that the Baha'is believe that Baha'u'llah is the second coming, or the return of Christ. But here, too, Baha'u'llah would have to be a male sperm descendant of King David. If you ask a Baha'i who Baha'u'llah is descended from, they will answer Zoroaster. But Zoroaster only had daughters with one marrying the king who was the first person that believed in Zoroaster. Baha'u'llah's lineage from Zoroaster was from the female line (the word Zoroaster means "the seed of the woman") and the male line was from King David. If either Jesus or Baha'u'llah were not the descendants of King David, they would be impostors. 
According to Luke, Jesus was descended from David's son, Nathan, the brother of Solomon, the King (Luke 3:31). The difference between the lineage of Jesus and Baha'u'llah is that Baha'u'llah is descended from David's son, Solomon. Therefore none of Jesus' ancestors sat upon the throne of David, whereas all of Baha'u'llah's ancestors were descendants from David seated on the throne of David. Baha'u'llah's father was seated upon the throne of David—as well as His grandfather and great grandfather—in an unbroken chain all the way back to King David. If Baha'u'llah wasn't, He would be an impostor. Baha'u'llah said in His proclamation (in The Proclamation of Baha'u'llah  on page 89) that He, the Ancient Beauty, ruleth upon the throne of David. Psalm 89 tells us that there will always be a man seated upon David's throne:
Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations (Psalm 89:4).
His seed also will I make to endure for ever, and his throne as the days of heaven (ibid., verse 29).
My covenant I will not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips. Once have I sworn by my holiness [God's] that I will not lie unto David. His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me. It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven (ibid., verses 34-37).
For thus says the Lord: David shall never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel… (Jeremiah 33:17 RSV).

As Jesus had no son, this lineage of David came to an end. So the only lineage from David that is to last forever is the lineage of the one seated on the throne of David who is Baha'u'llah and His successors who sit upon the throne. So this lineage of David is to last forever. But the Covenant-breaking Hands say, "Hell no! God doesn't know what He is talking about. Since Shoghi Effendi didn't have a biological son this Davidic lineage came to an end." (My paraphrase of what they said.)
Baha'u'llah's Kingdom is a Democratic Monarchy with His descendants sitting as presidents, or kings, at the head of His Universal House of Justice. Shoghi Effendi provided for this by placing 'Abdu'l-Baha's son in the position of president of Shoghi Effendi's successor, the first International Baha'i Council, that was to go through four stages: Council, World Court, International Tribunal and then effloresce into the Universal House of Justice with 'Abdu'l-Baha's son or one of his successors seated as president, or head, of that Universal House of Justice.
Baha'u'llah, being the second Christ and as He was seated on the throne of David, passed this lineage from David to his son, 'Abdu'l-Baha, the Most Great Branch, and appointed him to be His successor, conferring on him infallibility. Baha'u'llah also designated another son, Muhammad Ali, to be the Lesser Branch, and to succeed 'Abdu'l-Baha. Muhammad Ali then violated the Covenant and was thus removed. 'Abdu'l-Baha then designated his grandson, Shoghi Effendi, to be the one that everybody should turn to and obey, giving him the infallibility that would have gone to Muhammad Ali. But Shoghi Effendi was not a male-line descendant of King David, as his descent was through his mother who was 'Abdu'l-Baha's daughter. The kingship is not passed down through the female line, so Shoghi Effendi could not, nor could his son (if he had one) sit upon the throne of David. So it was imperative that Shoghi Effendi didn't have a biological son. So did David's lineage come to an end? Heavens no! When 'Abdu'l-Baha appointed Shoghi Effendi to be the guardian and center of the Cause, he also adopted a son legally who inherited the Davidic lineage, as an adopted son has all the rights and privileges of a natural son including the kingship. Therefore when Shoghi Effendi set up the first International Baha'i Council, he placed 'Abdu'l-Baha's adopted son to be the president, for only a descendant of King David could fill that position; however he didn't inherit the infallibility as this was passed to Shoghi Effendi's non-biological son, the first International Baha'i Council. The ignorant and unfaithful Hands that went against Shoghi Effendi messed it all up, leading the entire Baha'i community astray. They should not have gone against Shoghi Effendi and disobeyed him:
For he [Shoghi Effendi] is, after 'Abdu'l-Baha, the guardian of the Cause of God, the Afnan, the Hands (pillars) of the Cause of God 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. Beware lest anyone falsely interpret these words, and like unto them that have broken the Covenant after the Day of Ascension (of Baha'u'llah) advance a pretext, raise the standard of revolt, wax stubborn and open wide the door of false interpretation. To none is given the right to put forth his own opinion or express his particular convictions. All must seek guidance and turn unto the Center of the Cause [Shoghi Effendi] and the House of Justice [in any of its four stages]. And he that turneth unto whatsoever else is indeed in grievous error (Will and Testament, pp. 25, 26).

I have shown that the entire Baha'i community was in grievous error when they turned to something else (the Hands). Instead of turning to the successor to Shoghi Effendi, the first International Baha'i Council set up by Shoghi Effendi which was the Universal House of Justice in its first stage, they turned to the Hands that led them astray. The Covenant-breaking Hands have not only violated Shoghi Effendi by going against everything that he had set up for establishing the Universal House of Justice in its four stages, but the Hands have gone against the House of Justice itself by going against and not being submissive to the first International Baha'i Council that was to succeed Shoghi Effendi. What sin could be greater than that of the Hands who were appointed by Shoghi Effendi to protect the guardian, Shoghi Effendi, and then became the prime movers in opposition to him?
This was supposed to happen as it was a test, plotted by God, to see if the Baha'is in general would for any reason go against the Covenant, showing the frailties of their beliefs. They were like the trainman who was asleep at the switch causing a horrible train wreck; thus they were asleep at the switch, so-to-speak, putting them in jeopardy of suffering immensely in the oncoming of a horrible catastrophe. Every unrepented one will be paid for what he has done.5 None of them will escape.
Those that are followers of this violation need to stop being in opposition to Shoghi Effendi and come back under the provisions of the Covenant before it is too late.

THE RED ALERT 

When a believer in Baha'u'llah whether he was in the faith at the time of Shoghi Effendi or a recent adherent finds that a person or a group of people have taken over the command of the faith in opposition to an authoritative figure or institution such as the International Baha'i Council set up by Shoghi Effendi, the red flare should shoot up. Or if they should find a person or a group of people going against any of the provisions of the Will and Testament of 'Abdu'l-Baha or going against Shoghi Effendi or any of his plans such as found in his plan of his world Crusade for the setting up the Universal House of Justice in four stages, the red flare should shoot up. Or if anyone finds a so-called Universal House of Justice that doesn't have the executive branch, which is an integral part of the Universal House of Justice, as its head, then the red flare should shoot up. Or if a so-called Universal House of Justice is elected by National Spiritual Assemblies and not elected by Secondary Houses of Justice including all nations, such as Russia, then the red flare should shoot up. Or if you find that all of these violations are present, then there should be a red flame of fire bursting a mile high into the air to jar you out of your lethargy, awakening you to the gravity of this most malignant cancer infecting the body of believers. 
This malignant spiritual cancer is deadly. It resembles a cancer in the body of a person. It starts out like a little bump or sore. If detected early it can be eradicated and treated and thus save the person's life. But if it is not detected or treated properly, it will metastasize and spread throughout the entire body of believers, which is fatal.
These spiritually sick Covenant-breakers do not have a message for the world, for whoever in their right senses would ever accept their headless so-called "House of Justice" as anything but a headless monster? However, everyone will accept the Universal House of Justice with the lineage of David as its president because it fulfills Biblical prophecies and is in accordance with the sacred Will and Testament and as it was set up by Shoghi Effendi.

CHAPTER TWO

REMEDIES

The disease afflicting the faith is pernicious. It is very deep. It requires the service of a spiritual doctor to prescribe the remedy. Its indoctrination is like an addiction to some chemical, like coffee or alcohol. You know how hard it is to stop drinking or smoking. People do quit you know. Not only are they addicted, they like the stuff.

And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of truth, that they might be saved, And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie. That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness (II Thessalonians 2:10-12).

Here Paul is telling us what happens in any age when people go against the truth. They that love the lie are damned and perish. For these people there isn't much hope. Most people don't give up their addictions until they get real sick, like they are going to die. Then they may make an effort to give up their coffee, smoking or alcohol. Some have more severe addictions such as drugs like pot, heroin, hash, cocaine, etc. 'Abdu'l-Baha refers to the addiction of breaking the Covenant as leprosy. However, most of the Covenant-breaking Baha'is following the Covenant-breaking Hands don't even know that they are also Covenant-breakers and have this terrible disease of leprosy. They have been oppressed, first by the Covenant-breaking Hands, and now by their phony House of Justice from investigating the truth for themselves. These that are asleep won't wake up to the fact that they were duped until they get a hit on the head, so-to-speak. This will come right after New York City is nuked, which might occur before this is published. Then according to prophecy only 144,000 will come out of the violation and come under the provisions of the Covenant. The rest will go through a horrible destruction with most of them dying in their sins. They are not innocent, as God has given them the intellect and Baha'u'llah has given them the principle of the Independent Investigation of the Truth. To not use this franchise given them by Baha'u'llah is a sin in itself.
The remedy comes from God who has sent a Divine physician to reestablish back into the sick Baha'i world that which the Hands did away with when they went against Shoghi Effendi. 'Abdu'l-Baha wrote about the return of Jesus and his twelve Apostles who will be the twelve gates through which the people will enter the Kingdom, and nobody will enter the Kingdom unless they pass though these twelve gates. Baha'u'llah fulfilled the prophecies for the return of Christ—a descendant of David seated on the throne of David—as He is a descendant of King David. He didn't come in the name of Jesus, but Baha'u'llah, for Jesus said that if anybody comes in his name (Jesus) and claimed to be the Christ, he is a lying impostor. The prophecies state that both Christ and Jesus will return but not in the same person. The return of Jesus is not to be a Manifestation of God, but Jesus the High Priest after the order of Melchizedec, or Jesus the Lamb. Paul in Hebrews tells us that Jesus was not only the Christ but also a high priest after the order of Melchizedec (Hebrews 6:20). The high priest after the order of Melchizedec is greater than the Aaronic priesthood of Moses. The Aaronic priesthood is passed down through the genealogy from Aaron, the brother of Moses, whereas the priesthood of Melchizedec has nothing to do with genealogy. Shem, the beloved son of Noah, was Melchizedec, as he was a priest after the order of Ziedec, another name for Adam. Melchizedec came 2,000 years after Adam. Jesus came 2,000 years after Shem as the High Priest after the order of Melchizedec, and he returns 2,000 years later as the return of Jesus the High Priest after the order of Melchizedec. That is, he came every 2,000 years. This was not fulfilled in Baha'u'llah, as He was not a high priest but a Manifestation, and He came in the nineteenth century. Now at the very end of the 20th century Jesus is now in the world as Jesus the High Priest (great educator) after the order of Melchizedec.
There are two kinds of Covenants of God: The greater and the lesser Covenants. The greater Covenant is one that applies to those who are to come by fulfilling prophecies, such as being prophesied by name, address, date and mission. The lesser Covenant applies to those who are appointed by a Manifestation, such as Baha'u'llah appointed His son 'Abdu'l-Baha in His Covenant to succeed Him as the Most Great Branch. So the return of Jesus was prophesied to come fulfilling prophecies of name, address, date, and mission (where he receives his authority to carry out his mission) and therefore is part of the greater Covenant. To go against him is also to go against God. However he is not a Manifestation of God and does not bring a new Revelation. His main mission is to reestablish Shoghi Effendi's plan, or program, for the establishment of the Universal House of Justice in four stages by reestablishing the Monarchy, the executive branch, the descendant of King David seated on the throne of David as its president, or head, that the Covenant-breaking Hands threw out.
'Abdu'l-Baha talked about the return of Jesus and his Apostles in some of his tablets where he refers to the return of Jesus. Baha'u'llah didn't claim to be the return of Jesus. If He did he would have been an impostor, for Jesus said if anyone comes in his name [Jesus] claiming to be the Christ, that person would be a lying impostor. Jesus said: "Take heed that no man deceives you. For many shall come in my name [Jesus], saying I am Christ; and shall deceive many" (Matthew 24:4, 5). Yet the scriptures tell us that Jesus Christ would return. Therefore, of a necessity the coming of Jesus would have to be a different individual than the return of Christ (Baha'u'llah). However, these tablets of 'Abdu'l-Baha that I am going to quote have been translated into English in error. It is difficult to translate from one language to another word-for-word. Therefore the concepts were translated and as the Covenant-breakers were not knowledgeable in the understanding of what they were translating they translated their understanding. For instance in one place the script talked about the return of the spirit. 'Abdu'l-Baha tells us that this is Jesus who was referred to as the spirit. The tablet that I am using was translated by a committee of the Headless Monster and by Marzieh Gail who is with the Covenant-breakers. In referring to Jesus of Nazareth it is OK to refer to him either as the Christ or Jesus or Jesus Christ; but with the fulfillment, this is incorrect as Jesus and Christ are two different individuals. Marzieh Gail translated the word spirit as "Christ" instead of "Jesus." The text that I am referring to is 'Abdu'l-Baha's explanation of Revelation 21:
And he carried me away in the spirit to a great high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, Having the glory of God [Baha'u'llah]… (Revelation 21: 10, 11).
And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb (ibid., verse 14).
Everything in the book of Revelation are prophecies of the future. Nothing was for the time of Jesus the Christ or before (Revelation 1:1 and 4:1).
The meaning of the passage is that the heavenly Jerusalem hath twelve gates, through which the blessed enter into the City of God. These twelve gates are souls who are as guiding stars, as portals of knowledge and grace; and within these gates there stand twelve angels. By angels is meant the power of the confirmation of God—that the candle of God's confirming power shineth from the lamp-niche of those souls—meaning that every one of those beings will be granted the most vehement confirming support.
These twelve gates surround the entire world, that is they are a shelter for all creatures; And further, these twelve gates are the foundation of the City of God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and on each one of these foundations is written the name of one of the Apostles of Christ [the spirit—Jesus—not Christ, or Baha'u'llah]. That is to say, each one maketh manifest the perfections, the joyous message, and the excellency of that holy Being [Jesus on his return]. (Selections from the Writings of 'Abdu'l-Baha, p. 166).

Here 'Abdu'l-Baha tells us that Jesus will have twelve Apostles on his return, not the same ones that he had on his first coming. Baha'u'llah did not have twelve apostles although there have been attempts to create apostles to Baha'u'llah, but all attempts come up short. Besides, the language used by 'Abdu'l-Baha is that this prophecy was to come in the future, that is, sometime after 'Abdu'l-Baha. These are the foundation for the establishment of the true Universal House of Justice, being members of the second International Baha'i Council set up by Jesus on his return. Only an authoritative figure sent by God could have the authority to reestablish what the Covenant-breakers threw out. 
Shoghi Effendi set up an embryonic council with his nine appointed members and called his Council the first International Baha'i Council that was to go through four stages and become the Universal House of Justice. This second International Baha'i Council has the twelve Apostles of Jesus on his return, which are the gates that all must pass through to enter the New Jerusalem. They are the foundation of the city of God, as prophesied by 'Abdu'l-Baha above. It will have the executive branch as its president and go through the four stages proscribed by Shoghi Effendi. It will shortly become a World Court. This will take place right after the nuclear war which is upon us,
The four Beast Nations—England (the lion), Russia (the bear), France (the Leopard) and the United States (the eagle)1—will become the first Baha'i States, as they will be hit the hardest in the nuclear war. When the majority of the people of other nations become Baha'i they will come under the provisions of the Covenant and under the World Court. When a significant few nations become Baha'i under the World Court, then these nations will elect the body, having the executive branch, the descendant of David which is hereditary, as its president. This organization will be called the Supreme Tribunal and it will bring peace to the world. When all nations become Baha'i then the secondary Houses of Justice will elect the members of the Universal House of Justice, and thus the Kingdom of God will be born into this world. 
The biggest enemies to the Cause of God are the Covenant-breakers that have gone against Shoghi Effendi, throwing out the very essence of the administration of Baha'u'llah, 'Abdu'l-Baha and Shoghi Effendi. They are to be shunned and avoided as you would the plague or the AIDS virus. Most of them are already so infected that they have become so narrow-minded that they won't even listen or investigate the truth.
Two-thirds of the people will perish in the oncoming catastrophes. If they climb out of the pit, they will be caught in the snare.
Awake, O sword, against the shepherd [Shoghi Effendi], and against the man who is my fellow [Jesus on his return], sayeth the Lord of hosts [Baha'u'llah]: smite the shepherd [Shoghi Effendi}, and the sheep [the mainstream Baha'is] shall be scattered [leave the provisions of the Covenant]: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones [those few that are firm in the Covenant].
And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.
And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name [Allah'u'Abha], and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The Lord is my God (Zechariah 13:7-9).

CHAPTER THREE

NEW CRITERIA

Every time a Promised One of God comes he is rejected by the people that he comes to, or as in the case of Moses, by the Pharaoh of Egypt. Moses gave the Pharaoh ten proofs, which consisted of ten plagues. When Jesus came, the Jews were waiting for the coming of a Messiah that would free them from the Roman yoke and set them up in ascendancy over the whole world. But when Jesus Christ came he fulfilled none of their expectations which led to his crucifixion. The first thing that he established was a new criteria for the recognition of a Promised One that was different than the criteria of Moses. To show that he was the promised anointed Christ, he presented his lineage back to King David. This is recorded in the first chapter of the New Testament (Matthew 1:6-17). 
Then he showed that he was prophesied by name, address, date and mission. 
 
NAME 

He was prophesied to come in the name Emmanuel, in the Hebrew language, which is Jesus in the Greek:
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name EMMANUEL (Isaiah 7:14). Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us…(Matthew 1:23). And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he [Joseph] called his name JESUS (Matthew 1:25).

This showed that he was prophesied to come by Isaiah.

ADDRESS

Jesus also showed that he was prophesied to come in Bethlehem, the address for the coming of the Messiah.
And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet, And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, art not the least among the princes of Judah: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people, Israel (Matthew 2:5,6).

He was prophesied to come in Bethlehem by Micah:
But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from old, from everlasting (Micah 5:2).

The fulfillment of Micah's prophecy was explained by Matthew: "Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea…" (Matthew 2:2). This shows that Jesus came from Bethlehem. This is where the wise men found him.

DATE 

For the Advent of Jesus Christ, the prophet Daniel gave seventy weeks from the order of Artaxerxes on March 21st, 457 B.C. until the Messiah (Jesus Christ) is cut off. In seventy weeks there are 490 days and according to the Holy text each day is as year (Numbers 14:34). That is, there were four hundred and ninety years from the order of Artaxerxes to the crucifixion of Christ. That is, Jesus was crucified at the age of 33 in 34 A.D. For a fuller explanation refer to 'Abdu'l-Baha in Some Answered Questions, pp. 48-49 .
But in the twenty-fifth verse of the ninth chapter of the Book of Daniel this is expressed in another manner of seven weeks and sixty-two weeks and one week, the week of the Covenant. It took seven weeks, or 49 years, after the order to rebuild Jerusalem (issued on March 21st, 457 B.C.) for the city to be rebuilt. In 408 B.C. the city was rebuilt including the walls and the moat. Then there was an interim period of sixty-two weeks, or four hundred and thirty-four (434) days/years, between the rebuilding of the city and the last week. That brings us to March 21st, 27 A.D., when John the Baptist began his ministry. Three and one-half (3-1/2) years later he baptized Jesus on September 21st, 30 A.D. (Luke 3:21-23):
 Then the Spirit of God descended on Jesus saying, Today I have begotten1 thee to be my Son (Luke 3:21-23, footnote "k," RSV). 
And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being… begotten of Joseph as the son of Joseph… which was the son of Nathan, which was the son of David (Luke 3:23, 31). 

Then three and a half (3-1/2) years later on March 21st, 34 A.D. Jesus was crucified. Jesus at the age of 33 in 34 A.D. was martyred. See Some Answered Questions by 'Abdu'l-Baha, p. 48 for a more detailed explanation.
There are 490 years from the Order of Artaxerxes in 457 B.C. until the crucifixion of Jesus as is shown on the following scale:—


PROFESSION OR MISSION 

'Abdu'l-Baha tells us that there were seven Universal Divine Manifestations. Four of them came before Adam, but there are no traces of them left, as they were wiped out in great world upheavals. The three in the Adamic cycle are Adam (Sydyk), Jesus and Baha'u'llah. The other six were local, that is, for specific people—such as Moses came for the Israelites. Jesus, being a Universal Manifestation, had a message for the entire world. He told his Apostles and disciples to go out and teach the nations. He left no administration. His mission in general, being in the potency of the Son, was to spiritualize the nations, that is, to free them from sin was by having them stop sinning and await the coming of the Revelation in the potency of the Father, Baha'u'llah. He said: "for whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of man [a man] be ashamed, when he comes in the glory of his Father" [Baha'u'llah] (Mark 8:38), who would bring the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven. That is, Jesus was the herald to the nations for the coming of the Kingdom of God. His death on the cross did not free men of their sins, but his message, which he gave his life for, would free them from sin. That is, Jesus' mission was to free men of their sins:
Therefore he [Jesus] is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred which redeems them from the transgressions under the first covenant [of Moses]. For where a will is involved, the death of the one who made it must be established. For a will takes effect only at death, for it is not in force as long as the one who made it is alive. Hence the first covenant was not ratified without blood (Hebrews 9:15-18). …But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the age to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself, and after that comes judgment, so Christ [Jesus], having been offered once to bear sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him (Hebrews 9:26-28 RSV). 

Jesus freed those that accepted him from having to follow the Laws of Moses, that is, they wouldn't be sinning by not following Moses' Laws. This way he freed them from sin.
Here also Jesus has established a criteria to show his authenticity. That he was prophesied to come in the Name, Address, Date and Mission. Now there may have been other people that were named Jesus, or EMMANUEL, and some of them might have come from Bethlehem. But there was only one person in this entire world who was prophesied to come in the name of EMMANUEL, or Jesus; who had a forerunner that came in 27 A.D and baptized him when he was about 30 years of age in 30 A.D., and who was crucified at 33 years of age in 34 A.D. Only one person fulfilled the prophesied mission of a suffering Messiah (a descendant of King David) depicted in Isaiah chapter 53. Only one person in this world could have possibly fulfilled these criteria. Now we need to put this to the test to see if one is to come who is prophesied by Name, Address, Date and Mission, thus fulfilling the criteria for the coming of a Promised One of God.



CRITERIA FULFILLED 

Baha'u'llah in His Proclamation said that He, "the Ancient Beauty ruleth upon the throne of David." His genealogy that is found in history books shows that His genealogy is in an unbroken chain of father-to-son descendants of King David seated upon the throne David. This throne is a real throne with seven steps. The difference between Baha'u'llah's and Jesus' genealogy is that none of Jesus' ancestors sat upon the throne of David except David himself. 

When Nebuchadnezzar conquered Jerusalem he brought King Jehoiachin and the throne of David that he sat upon into Babylon. He placed Jehoiachin in prison where he remained for 37 years. Then another king seated on the throne of Babylon, Evil-merodach, took Jehoiachin (or Jeconiah) out of prison, dressed him back into his royal robes and placed him back on his throne of King David in Babylon (2 Kings 25:27-30). Jehoiachin's son, Shenazzar, moved from the city of Babylon to the area of pure lineage, where he built a temple using some of the material of the one that was destroyed. Shenazzar succeeded his father on the throne in Babylon. Jehoiachin and Shenazzar and his descendants remained in the country of Babylon and were called exilarchs, meaning King David's lineage in exile. They survived well in the Zoroastrian empire, then in the Greek empire, then the Parthian empire, then under the Sassanian Dynasty. Many of the Parthians converted to Judaism. Then at the start of the Muslim empire the Davidic King, Bostanai, married Princess Dara, the daughter of Yazdegird III (the last king of the Sassanian Dynasty), by the matchmaking of Ali, the successor of Muhammad (being the first of twelve Imams). Thus Baha'u'llah gets his lineage back to King David through Bostanai and His lineage from Zoroaster through Dara. In 817 A.D. the Exilarch2 Isaac Iskoi Ben Moses was converted to Islam by Imam Ali ar-Rida3. They then, for protection, moved from the area of pure lineage to Mazindaran, and the lineage continued on to Baha'u'llah Who was born in 1817 to Mirza Buzurg, the Grand Vizier of the Shah of Persia.
When Cyrus the Great conquered Babylon, being a Zoroastrian believing in the One True Invisible God, he made an edict allowing some Jews to go back to the site of Jerusalem that was destroyed and to rebuild their temple. He didn't let any of the exilarchs nor the throne of David go back to Jerusalem. He chose Zerubbabel as his subject to be the governor of Jerusalem who was a descendant from David but not of the lineage of David seated on the throne. (See this genealogy in Luke 3:23 from Jesus to Zerubbabel (Luke 3:27) and then to Nathan, a son of David (Luke 3:31) who was not seated on the throne.) Nathan was the brother of King Solomon, the reigning son of David. Therefore Jesus said that his kingdom was not of this world.

NAME

Baha'u'llah is prophesied by name so many times throughout the Bible that to give them all would be too much. I will just give the ones that are the most known and used. This occurs in the 43rd chapter of Ezekiel. Here I will give the Aramaic word that the English word was translated from:
Afterward he brought me to the gate [Bab], even the gate [Bab] that looketh toward the East: And, behold, the glory of the God [Baha'u'llah] of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like a noise of many waters [multitudes, many nations peoples and tongues4]: and the earth shined with his glory [Baha'i] (Ezekiel 43:1,2).
As the glory of the Lord [Baha'u'llah] entered the temple [His mission] by the gate [the Bab] facing east [the Bab on the west side of the Euphrates], the Spirit lifted me up, and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of the Lord [Baha'u'llah] filled the temple [the great Revelation of the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven] (ibid., verses 4,5 RSV).
While the man was standing beside me, I heard one speaking to me out of the temple; and he said to me, "Son of man [a man], this is the place of my throne [the throne of David] and the place of the soles of my feet [literally meaning this man "Baha'u'llah" has feet], where I will dwell in the midst of the people of Israel [those that strive with God] for ever… (ibid., verses 6,7 RSV).

ADDRESS 
Afterward he brought me to the gate, the gate facing east. And behold, the glory of the God [Baha'u'llah] of Israel came from the east… (Ezekiel 43:1,2 RSV).

Baha'u'llah came from the east near the city of Tehran, Iran in the Province of Mazindaran, the site of the throne of King David that Baha'u'llah's father sat upon, whereas the Bab appeared west of Mazindaran. Thus Baha'u'llah came from the east to Mt. Carmel in Haifa, Israel.
The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad, the desert shall rejoice and blossom; like the crocus it shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice with joy and singing. The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the Majesty of Carmel and Sharon. They shall see the glory of the Lord [Baha'u'llah], the majesty of our God (Isaiah 35:1,2 RSV).

The valley of Sharon is the land between the foot of Mt. Carmel and the Mediterranean. Baha'u'llah established that Mt. Carmel would be the site of His new world order. He indicated that the site of the true House of Justice would be built on top of Mt. Carmel. At present the top of Mt. Carmel is not Baha'i property, therefore the Covenant-breakers don't have their phony House of Justice on the site indicated by both Baha'u'llah and prophecy.5 The Covenant-breakers have their Headless Monster House of Justice on Golomb Street where it belongs. The meaning of the word "Golomb" is "an evil, man-made monster without a soul, deformed, no head." God would not allow the Covenant-breaking Hands to corrupt the top of Mt. Carmel with their evil, mad, Headless Monster.
The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem. And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain [Mt. Carmel] of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains. and it shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it (Isaiah 2:1,2).

DATE

Daniel gave four dates for the coming of Jesus Christ. The first one, as we have already shown, applied only to Jesus of Nazareth. The disciples of Jesus Christ wanted to know when he would return:
As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will this be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the close of the age?" And Jesus answered them, "Take heed that no one leads you astray…" (Matthew 24:3-5).

Then Jesus told them to turn to Daniel the prophet for the dates:
So when you see the desolating sacrilege spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand) (Matthew 24:15 RSV).

Daniel gives three dates for the return of Jesus Christ. Jesus said that he was the Door (Bab) of the sheep:
So Jesus said again to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door [Bab] of the sheep. All who came before me are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not heed them. I am the door [Bab]; if any one enters by me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture (John 10:7-9 RSV).

Jesus didn't speak English, therefore he didn't say "door" but the Aramaic word "BAB". Daniel gave the date for the return of Jesus as The BAB. Daniel said that it would be for 2300 days, then the sanctuary would be cleansed:
"For how long is the vision concerning the continual burnt offering, the transgression that makes desolate, and the giving over of the sanctuary and host to be trampled under foot?" And he said to him, "For two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings; then the sanctuary shall be restored to its rightful state." (Daniel 8:13,14 RSV)

'Abdu'l-Baha tells us that this is figured from the order to restore Jerusalem in 457 B.C. It was figured from this date as this was the same date given by Ezra for the rebuilding of Jerusalem. The temple had already been built but they did not cleanse the sanctuary. Thus the sanctuary was never cleansed. Jesus said that his blood cleansed the sanctuary in heaven; he didn't cleanse the sanctuary here on earth. To cleanse the sanctuary it would take a sacrifice as great as the one Jesus made. 'Abdu'l-Baha said that the 2300 days are 2300 years. From the order of Artaxerxes in 457 B.C. there are 456 years to the birth of Christ, and from the birth of Christ until the manifestation of the Bab there are 1844 years. When you add 456 years to this number it makes 2300 years. The fulfillment of Daniel's vision took place on March 21st, 1844. This is the date the Baha'i calendar began. The return of the manifestation of Jesus, the Bab, made his Proclamation on May 23rd, 1844. The sanctuary can only be cleansed with blood. The sanctuary was cleansed with the blood of the Bab and 10,000 of his followers in martyrdom. In the temple of Moses the sanctuary is the Ante-chamber to the chamber of the Holy of Holies. The sanctuary is symbolic. It pertains to the Revelation of the Bab. The Holy of Holies pertains to the Revelation of Baha'u'llah. Later on there will be graphics that explain this very well.
Daniel gives the date for the return of Jesus as the Christ in the twelfth chapter:
At that time shall arise Michael, the great prince who has charge of your people. And there shall be a time of trouble, such as never has been since there was a nation till that time; but at that time your people shall be delivered, every one whose name shall be found written in the book. And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the firmament; and those who turn many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever. But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, until the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase (Daniel 12:1-4 RSV).

The meaning of the word "Michael" is "Who is like God."6 The ones who are like God are the Divine Manifestations, who are the intermediaries between God and Man. This "Michael" refers to Baha'u'llah, the great prince, for He was to succeed His father that sat upon the throne of David. Baha'u'llah fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah chapter nine:
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government will be upon his shoulder, and his name will be called "Wonderful Councelor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." Of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David, and over his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time forth and for evermore. The zeal of the Lord of Hosts will do this (Isaiah 9:6,7 RSV). 

Christians think that this applies to Jesus Christ, as they have the belief in the trinity (a Pagan concept) and that Jesus is God, that God became incarnate in Jesus, and that Jesus' physical body resurrected and went up into the sky and will literally return on a cloud. Therefore they believe that all the prophecies for future Promised Ones were already fulfilled in Jesus of Nazareth. The Muslims likewise believe that there is not going to be another Promised One after Muhammad, as Muhammad said that he was "the seal of the prophets." Therefore, like the Christians, they believe Jesus will descend bodily from the sky. Thus, this way of thinking prevents the people of this belief from recognizing the One sent to them by God as prophesied in Holy Scriptures, such as the Bab, Baha'u'llah and today the return of Jesus after the order of Melchizedec. Their prejudices prevent them from even considering the possibility.
To begin with, only the first two statements in Isaiah 9:6,7 could apply to Jesus: He was born and he was a son, as this applies to all men. None of the rest of the prophecy could apply to Jesus. He did not have the government upon his shoulders. The only thing on his shoulder was carpentry. The only thing he said about government was to give unto Caesar the things that are of Caesar's. Jesus claimed to be the Son, not the Father. Also he did not claim to be the Prince of Peace. He said he did not come to bring peace, but a sword.7 Had he claimed to be the Prince of Peace, he would have been the biggest failure of all time, as we have had nothing but war in the world ever since his coming. He also did not sit upon the throne of David, as the throne of David remained in Babylon. While Jesus was hanging on the cross at Jerusalem, an exilarch—a descendant of King David—was seated on the throne of David in Babylon. This shows how stereotyped and erroneous people are in their thinking and beliefs.

There has never been such a time of trouble as we have today. and it says that at this time every one whose name that is found written in the book will be delivered. This means every one that is prophesied by name will be delivered (delivered—to be freed from restraint, evil, danger, etc.). That is, they will be recognized by the people who are awake, those who are non indoctrinated and looking for the truth. Those who are asleep in the dust of the earth (materialism) will awake (becoming knowledgeable), some to everlasting life and others to shame and everlasting contempt. Those who are wise (who use their intellect and independently search for the truth) will shine like the brightness of the firmament, like the stars forever and ever. Daniel was told to seal the book until the time of the end, meaning that no one would be able to understand the meaning of the prophecies until the one comes at the end that fulfills the prophecy. Therefore the Covenant-breaking, mainstream Baha'is don't understand the prophecies for the return of Jesus the High Priest after the order of Melchizedec, Jesus the Lamb with 7 horns and 7 eyes, who is to come at the end of the six-thousand year cycle that began with the prophet Adam in 4000 B.C. We are now coming to the end of this cycle, and the return of Jesus explains the meaning of all of these prophecies. It is today that people are running to and fro with all the rapid transit, and knowledge has increased 10,000 fold since 1844. We have gone from the horse and buggy to putting a man on the moon.
Many shall purify themselves, and make themselves white, and be refined; but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand; but those who are wise shall understand (Daniel 12:10 RSV).

The wicked are those that refuse to use their intellects that God gave them by refusing to go by the principle of Independent Investigation of the Truth that Baha'u'llah gave them, making them Covenant-breakers. This is about the worst thing that could possibly happen to anyone. Therefore they remain ignorant unto death. They are bound under the restraints of the violators. The wise are those that use their intellects that God gave them and independently investigate the matter for themselves, unrestrained. Jesus said "seek ye the truth and the truth will make you free." They become free from the oppression of the Covenant-breakers.
And from the time that the burnt offering is taken away, and the abomination that makes desolate is set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days (Daniel 12:11 RSV).

Jesus continued the burnt offering in the Eucharist. It was Muhammad that did away with all ritual of sacrifice. 'Abdu'l-Baha tells us that these 1290 days are 1290 lunar years. They are from the Proclamation of Muhammad to the Proclamation of Baha'u'llah. Baha'u'llah made His Proclamation in 1280 A.H. (After the Hegira—the start of the Muslim calendar). Muhammad made his Proclamation ten lunar years prior to the Hegira (the flight of Muhammad from Mecca to Medina). When you add these ten lunar years to 1280 you have 1290 lunar years. Thus Baha'u'llah came at the prophesied date for His Advent, which in the Christian calendar is April 21st, 1863.

THE MISSION OF BAHA'U'LLAH
 
Being the Prince of Peace, Baha'u'llah is to establish peace in the world. In order to have peace there must be justice. The world really never did have justice. Each Manifestation accentuates a certain quality of God: Moses=obedience to the law, Krishna=detachment, Zoroastor=purity, Buddha=meditation, Jesus=love, Muhammad=submission, and Baha'u'llah=justice. In order to have justice Baha'u'llah gave us the Universal House of Justice. In order for the Universal House of Justice to be just, it had to be infallible. In order for it to be infallible, it had to be erected including all the ingredients put forth in 'Abdu'l-Baha's Will and Testament, that is, to have both the executive branch, which is a descendant of King David, and a legislative branch, the membership of which was appointed by Shoghi Effendi. It was supposed to go through four stages: 1. International Baha'i Council; 2. a World Court; when its body became elected by a number of Baha'i nations it would become 3. the International Baha'i Tribunal; and when all nations became Baha'i it would then be elected by all the nations and would be 4. the Universal House of Justice. Throughout all these four stages it would be infallible, for the perfections of the adult are in the embryo. Shoghi Effendi, on January 9th, 1951, set up an infallible embryonic Universal House of Justice which he named: the first embryonic International Baha'i Council. This was dismantled by the Covenant-breaking Hands and then it was brought to America by the executive branch. On January 9th, 1991, exactly forty years later to the day, it was reassembled by the return of Jesus, the Lamb, as the second International Baha'i Council. Right after New York City—the City of the Covenant—is nuked, this Second International Baha'i Council will become the World Court.
Baha'u'llah in the Tablet of the Holy Mariner tells us that the Covenant-breaking Baha'is will be driven off of Mt. Carmel by a burning meteor. They had determined to establish Divine Unity by going against the Arabian Youth, Shoghi Effendi:
They have desired to ascend unto that state which the Lord hath ordained to be above their stations. Whereupon the burning meteor cast them out from them that abide in the Kingdom [Davidic] of His Presence. And they heard the Voice of Grandeur raised from behind the unseen pavilion upon the Height of Glory [Baha]: 'O guardian angels! Return them to their abodes in the world below [hell] (Tablet of the Holy Mariner, Baha'i Prayers, pp. 223, 224).

This meteor is prophesied throughout Holy Scriptures. One of the places is in the book of Revelation: 
And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood (Revelation 8:8; 16:3). 

An asteroid is a large chunk of stuff, sometimes as big as a great mountain. When it enters the atmosphere of the earth it becomes red hot from the friction, and then it is called a burning meteor. Some of the seers predict that this meteor will hit in the Mediterranean Sea somewhere near the Aegean Sea, that is, somewhere near Greece and Turkey. It will cause a tidal wave possibly a mile high. It will then wipe off those bozos on Mt. Carmel meeting on Golomb Street who think they can thumb their nose at Shoghi Effendi, and thus God, and not suffer severe retribution, both in this life and the next. This meteor will cause the great earthquake also prophesied in the book of Revelation. It will hit with such speed, velocity, large size and weight that it will go right down to the bottom of the Mediterranean and so jar the earth that it will be felt all over the earth, causing tremendous destruction.
And the seventh angel [Jesus II] poured out his vial into the air [TV]; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven [second IBC] from the throne [Davidic], saying, It is done. And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. And the great city [Jerusalem] was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell… (Revelation 16:17-19).

'Abdu'l-Baha explained the seventh angel in Some Answered Questions, p. 66. He said the seventh angel was a man that would come [in the future], and he would establish in this world the Divine Manifestation of Baha'u'llah and His Kingdom, as the Covenant-breakers did away with the Kings of the Kingdom, and thus the Kingdom. He said:—
The seventh angel is a man qualified with heavenly attributes, who will arise [will come into being] with heavenly qualities and character. Voices will be raised [by his followers], so that the appearance of the Divine Manifestation [Baha'u'llah] will be proclaimed and diffused…. In that day of God, the Spiritual and Divine Kingdom [Davidic] will be established (Some Answered Questions, p. 66).

NAME, ADDRESS, DATE and MISSION

Baha'u'llah came in the prophesied name, "Baha'u'llah." He didn't choose that name. He was born Hussein Ali, but the Bab renamed Him "Baha'u'llah" and this was before He knew that He was the Promised One. His cognizance came later when He was in the Black Pit (Siyah Chal) of Tehran and the angel came to Him and told Him that he was the One.
He fulfilled the prophecies given in Holy Scriptures for the address where he would appear. He came from the East to Acca and Mt. Carmel. He didn't come there of His own volition but as a prisoner, against His will.
He fulfilled the prophecy of Daniel for the date for the second coming of Christ on April 21st, 1863, when He made His historic Proclamation in the Rose Garden across the Euphrates from Baghdad, Iraq.
He gave the laws, ordinances and teachings for the Kingdom of God on earth, fulfilling the prophecies for His mission being the Prince of Peace. His Revelation is based upon Justice. Any peace without justice is tyranny. His House of Justice has the Davidic lineage as its president. This fulfills the Covenant that God made with David: that his lineage seated upon his throne would last forever. This is important, for it distinguishes Baha'u'llah's House of Justice from man-made ones. Those that don't have a descendant of David as its head are bogus.
There were four Czars of Russia who were sympathizers, or friends, of the Babi and the Baha'i faith. Czar Nicholas I was instrumental in having Baha'u'llah released from the Siyah Chal (the Black Pit) where he was a prisoner in chains. 
While in Akka Baha'u'llah wrote to Czar Alexander II of Russia who is famous for beginning his reign by implementing Baha'u'llah's reforms, such as immediately ending the Crimean War, lifting the censorship of the press, establishing educational reform at the universities, lifting the restrictions on travel, and most significantly, abolishing serfdom in the first Edict of Emancipation on March 3rd, 1863, all of which won for him the popular title "the Czar Liberator." He corresponded with Abraham Lincoln stating that if Lincoln freed the slaves, he would free the serfs. Of course Lincoln established the Emancipation Proclamation similar to that edict of the Czar; all of which has its origin in Baha'u'llah. He was unable to implement the World Court himself, as he was assassinated for freeing the serfs. This was passed to his grandson, Nicholas II, who called the nations together at the Hague, thus revealing Baha'u'llah's plan for a World Court to settle disputes instead of going to war. He was so eulogized for coming up with such a brilliant idea that it went to his head, and he took the credit himself. Therefore he failed to proclaim Baha'u'llah. Thus without a Davidic King seated at its head, the World Court failed and lead us to World War 1.
President Wilson's daughter embraced the Baha'i faith, and it was due to her influence that her father set up the League of Nations. He died a broken man in spirit as he was unable to get the United States to join, and thus he didn't proclaim Baha'u'llah. Because it did not have a Davidic King as its president, it failed, and we had World War II.
President Franklin Roosevelt and his wife Eleanor had embraced the Baha'i faith but didn't declare it, as it wasn't politically sound. His plan was to set up the United Nations, and as the atom bomb was nearing completion, his plan was to call the heads of nations to the Nevada proving grounds, explode an atomic device for them to see its total destructive power and then proclaim Baha'u'llah. He was then going to put the atom bomb under the control of the United Nations and have all the nations simultaneously disarm. But he died just before the bomb was exploded, and President Truman didn't go along with President Roosevelt's plan. He said, "We've got the bomb. Now the world can dance to our tune." As a result there was no simultaneous disarmament, and most importantly, there is no descendant of Baha'u'llah (a descendant of King David) seated as the president in the United Nations. As a result we will have World War III.
God was gracious. He gave us another chance for peace. God had Shoghi Effendi to make a plan to set up a World Court on Mt. Camel in 1963 with a descendant of David seated at its head. Shoghi Effendi did this when he set up the first International Baha'i Council with Baha'u'llah's grandson ('Abdu'l-Baha's son) as president. As this is a hereditary position, 'Abdu'l-Baha's son would be the Davidic president of that World Court. Then when the body became elected, this Davidic descendant would be the president of the International Tribunal that was to bring peace to the world. Then all the nations would join and it would effloresce into the Universal House of Justice. We would have the Kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven. But those Covenant-breaking Hands did away with all this. Now you and all your family and friends will witness all the horrible destruction that wayward mankind will have to suffer in World War III.
I have shown that Baha'u'llah has fulfilled the criteria given by Jesus Christ  of name, address, date and mission. It proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that Baha'u'llah, and no one else, is the second coming, or the second Christ, as prophesied in scriptures, as well as showing that the criteria of Jesus is sound and accurate.
There may have been other people who assumed the title of Baha'u'llah. Some of them may have gone to Mt. Carmel to make their claim. But there was only one person in this world Who was named Baha'u'llah; Who went to the address, Mt. Carmel, as a prisoner in chains against His will; who made His Proclamation on the date given by Daniel for the second coming or the second Christ; and Who fulfilled the prophecies for the mission of the second Christ as He was a descendant of David seated on the throne of David. Baha'u'llah continued this lineage that is to last forever in His Covenant by appointing His son, 'Abdu'l-Baha, to succeed Him on the throne, who continued that lineage by adopting a son. Baha'u'llah's House of Justice was delineated by 'Abdu'l-Baha in his Will and Testament as the Universal House of Justice. 'Abdu'l-Baha appointed Shoghi Effendi to carry out 'Abdu'l-Baha's Divine Plan to set up the Universal House of Justice, which he did by setting it up, due to necessity, in four stages. This four-stage plan was to bring peace to the world. But the Covenant-breaking Hands did away with Shoghi Effendi's plan. Because of this the world will go through the prophesied four winds of destruction which will come in four great waves, each following the other. The first wave is upon us.
This shows that the criteria given by Jesus of Name, Address, Date and Mission is indeed the criteria to recognize the one sent by God. This criteria is sometimes called the business or calling card of a professional. That is, people use the same method to determine the identity of a professional or business person as God uses to determine the ones He sends. A business card gives the name of the person, the business or profession that he is in, the address where he will be found, and the date or time that he will be there. For instance, John Brown (his name) is a lawyer (his profession). He has his office (address) at 310 Main Street in Racine, Wisconsin, and the office hours (or date) when he will be in his office. With these four things on his business card—name, address, date and profession—anyone in this country could take a bus, a train, fly, drive or walk to John Brown's office and find him there. There may be a million people named John Brown in this country, but there is only one person named John Brown at that address, at that date and in that profession in this entire world. Isn't it clever that people use the same method to identify themselves that God uses to identify His Promised Ones?
Anyone who claims to be a Promised One from God who isn't named in the lesser Covenant or is not prophesied by name, address, date and mission is a lying impostor. God uses this foolproof method to protect the people from following false and dangerous leaders. Anyone claiming to be a manifestation from God ere the passing of a full thousand years is a lying impostor. However, 'Abdu'l-Baha tells us that Jesus with his twelve Apostles will return, and he doesn't mean that he will come out of the sky. Therefore he would have to fulfill the criteria of coming in name, address, date and mission, or he would be a lying impostor. As I have mentioned earlier, Jesus has returned and he has fulfilled this criteria.

This refers to when after he was baptized by John: The heavens opened and the spirit of God descended on Jesus saying, This is my only begotten Son, which is to the Revelation in the potency of the Son that God gave Jesus. The Word was the begotten Son, not Jesus. He was called the Son because he gave that Word, or Revelation.

CHAPTER FOUR

THE RETURN OF JESUS, THE HIGH PRIEST, 
AFTER THE ORDER OF MELCHIZEDEC

The return of Jesus is prophesied to come under various names and titles besides "The High Priest." He is the return of the sacrificial Lamb, the Lamb with 7 horns and 7 eyes:
And between the throne [a Davidic King] and the four living creatures [the four beasts after they become Baha'i nations] and among the elders [they are the ones that remained with the executive after it was split from the Covenant-breaking Hands], I saw a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain [it was Jesus that was slain and he returns as the Lamb], with seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth [the eyes of the lamb understand the prophecies of the 7 Revelations of God]; and he went and took the scroll from the right hand of him who was seated on the throne (Revelation 5:6-7 RSV).

Each king has a scepter in his right hand to show the proof of his authority. This Davidic king who separated from the Covenant-breaking Hands has a scroll, or the Book of the Covenant and Will and Testament, as his scepter in his hand to show the proof of his authority, but he could not reestablish this back into the world. So the Lamb takes the scroll, or the Book of the Covenant and Will and Testament, from the king's hand and reestablishes this kingship back at the head of the Universal House of Justice, starting with the second International Baha'i Council that is going through the four stages.
And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and with golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints; and they sang a new song [which are the explanations and commentaries of the Lamb], saying, "Worthy art thou to take the scroll and to open its seals, for thou wast slain [on his first coming] and by thy blood didst ransom men for God from every tribe and tongue and people and nation, and hast made them a kingdom [Davidic] and priests [teachers] to our God, and they shall reign on earth" (Revelation 5:6-10 RSV).

He comes as the Knight on the white horse, as he was knighted by Shoghi Effendi. This is prophesied in both the sixth and the nineteenth chapters of Revelation:
Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures say, as with a voice of thunder, "Come!" And I saw, and behold, a white horse, and its rider had a bow [sign of the Covenant]; and a crown [the golden halo around his head] was given him, and he went out conquering and to conquer [he will conquer over the evils of the Covenant-breakers] (Revelation 6:1,2).1
Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! He who sat upon it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war [on the Covenant-breakers]. His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are many diadems [many titles]; and he has a name inscribed which no one knows but himself [the Land]. He is clad in a robe dipped in blood… (Revelation 19:11-13 RSV).

Baha'u'llah referred to His Revelation as a robe. It is dipped in blood which was the 20,000 Baha'i Martyrs. Shoghi Effendi knighted him as a knight of Baha'u'llah; thus as a knight of Baha'u'llah he is establishing Baha'u'llah and His Cause in the world:
…and the name by which he is called is The Word of God ['Abdu'l-Baha said that the Word of God referred to Jesus]. And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, followed him on white horses. [The white horses are symbolic of the pure Revelation of Baha'u'llah which they are establishing.] From his mouth issues a sharp sword with which to smite the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron [Jesus' rod is a rod of iron]; he will tread the wine press of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty [the fury of the wrath of God is against the Covenant-breakers that did away with His Kingdom]. On his robe and on his thigh he has a name inscribed, King of kings and Lord of lords (Revelation 19:11-16 RSV).

Every knight that rushes into battle has on his robe and on his chaps the name of the king that he is championing. This knight, Dr. Leland Jensen, a knight of Baha'u'llah, is championing Baha'u'llah and His administration that the Covenant-breakers abolished. He fulfills Revelation 19:11-16, defeating all people who are in opposition to Baha'u'llah who is the King of kings and Lord of lords. He is the only knight of Baha'u'llah left. All the rest have either died off or have become fallen knights by going against Shoghi Effendi and God.

Another title, or diadem, by which he is called is the "seventh angel" who is doing the same things that the Knight on the white horse is doing. Another title by which he is called is "Blessed is he who cometh to the thousand three hundred and thirty-five days:"— 
In the last two verses of the Book of Daniel occur the cryptic words—"Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days. But go thy way till the end be for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of Days [we are in the end of days now]."
Many have been the attempts of learned students to solve the problem of the significance of these words. In a tabletalk at which the writer [Esslemont] was present, 'Abdu'l-Baha reckoned the fulfillment of Daniel's prophecy from the date of the beginning of the Muhammadan era [the victory of Muhammad over Mecca in 628 A.D.—628+1335=1963].
'Abdu'l-Baha's Tablets make it clear that this prophecy refers to the one hundredth anniversary of the Declaration of Baha'u'llah in Baghdad, or the year [April 21st,] 1963:—
Now concerning the verse in Daniel, the interpretation whereof thou didst ask, namely, "Blessed is he who cometh unto the thousand, three hundred and thirty-five days." These days must be reckoned as solar and not lunar years. For according to this calculation a century will have elapsed from the dawn of the Sun of Truth, then will the teachings of God will be firmly established [by Blessed is he] upon the earth, and the Divine Light shall flood the world from the East even unto the West. Then on this day, will the faithful rejoice! (J.E. Esslemont author of Baha'u'llah and the New Era on pages 249-250 of the 1970 Edition.)

On April 21st, 1963 the return of Jesus began his ministry by being opposed by Satan (Rex King) who was designated Satan by the Davidic King who was 'Abdu'l-Baha's son (see exhibit one (1) in the appendix).
 1 And he shewed me Joshua [Jesus] the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him. 
 2 And the Lord said unto Satan, The Lord rebuke thee, O Satan; even the Lord that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?
 3 Now Joshua [Jesus] was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel [Jesus himself was not dirty, just his outer appearance was dirty].
 4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with a change of raiment [that is, the image of being guilty changes to one of innocence and purity].
 5 And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. [Although he began his ministry on April 21, 1963 he didn't know that he was the return of Jesus. Just like Jesus on his first coming, although he was a follower of John the Baptist, he didn't know that he was the Christ until he was baptized by John.] And the angel of the LORD stood by.
 6 And the angel of the LORD protested unto Joshua [Jesus], saying,
 7 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house [the Universal House of Justice], and shalt also keep my courts [local, national and international], and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by.
 8 Hear now, O Joshua [Jesus], the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee [his Twelve Apostles that are his appointed members of the second International Baha'i Council]: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH. ['Abdu'l-Baha and his descendants seated on the throne of King David, which is the executive head of the Universal House of Justice, as found in 'Abdu'l-Baha's Sacred Will and Testament. The plan for this Universal House of Justice was set up by Shoghi Effendi in four stages, which was abolished by the Covenant-breaking Baha'is when they went against Shoghi Effendi.]
 9 For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua [Jesus]; upon one stone shall be seven eyes:… (Zechariah 3:1-9).

This is the stone wall surrounding the old Montana State Prison where Jesus was incarcerated on a trumped-up charge by a very corrupt legal system, including corrupt lawyers, corrupt prosecutors, and corrupt judges. There were other prisoners in that prison convicted for crimes they did not commit. Some prisoners are held in prison for 15 or more years until it is discovered that they could not have committed that crime, or valuable evidence was withheld by the prosecution in order to get a verdict. When these injustices come to light the prisoner is released, but the state doesn't even apologize, much less reimburse him for stealing 15 or more years of his valuable life.
… Behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that [the] land2 in one day (Zechariah 3:9).

The iniquity of "the land" in the ninth paragraph is the same iniquity of Jesus in the fourth paragraph. The meaning of the word "iniquity" is: "Grievous violation of right or justice"3 by the corrupt legal system. Therefore Jesus and "the land" are the same individual, with "the land" being the name of the person that fulfills the prophecies for the return of Jesus. The name of the person that was put in prison was Leland, which is a French surname4 and an English given name meaning the land. This shows that Leland is the prophesied name of the person who is the return of Jesus the High Priest.
Nobody knew that Leland (the Land) was the name for the return of Jesus. If they did, all the mothers in the world would have named their sons "Leland." So God kept it a secret. As he was the knight of Baha'u'llah prophesied in the nineteenth chapter of Revelation, this knight had a name written that only he knew:—
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns [diadems, or titles]; and he had a name written [or inscribed], that no man knew, but he himself (Revelation 19:11,12).

When Dr. Leland was participating in Shoghi Effendi's World Crusade, he was on Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean. Reunion Island was a department of France, and French was the official language spoken there. Therefore many of the people called him "the land," for "le" is the masculine word for the English word "the."
It was Dr. Leland Jensen, a knight of Baha'u'llah, who was put in prison with the "stone with seven eyes" before him, fulfilling prophecy for the name and address (Montana State Prison in Deer Lodge, Montana) for the return of Jesus. However, God said that He laid the "stone with seven eyes" before Jesus—Dr. Leland Jensen. He saw that he fulfilled the prophecies of the third chapter of Zechariah. As the iniquity of Jesus in the fourth paragraph and the iniquity of "the land " were the same iniquity (the dirty garment), he knew he was the only person in the world who knew what the name for Jesus the High Priest, on his second coming, was—"the Land," or Leland—for that was his name.
For behold the stone that I [God] have laid before Joshua [Jesus]; upon one stone5 shall be seven eyes: behold, I [God] will engrave [to impress as if with a graver6] the engravings thereof, saith the LORD of hosts,… (Zechariah 3:9).

Here, God as an engraver is impressing upon us that it was He who put Dr. Leland Jensen in prison. Why would God do a thing like that? Well, God seems to be hard on most of His Promised Ones. For instance, He had Moses, who was brought up in the palace of the Pharaoh and next to sit on the throne of Egypt, exiled out into the desert for forty years before he was to take the 12 tribes of Israel out of bondage. God had Jesus suffer one of the most painful deaths of crucifixion. Baha'u'llah, Who was born and raised in luxury and was probably the richest man in the world, ended up separated from that way of life. He suffered immense pain by being chained with an iron collar riveted around His neck and was seated in a circle of 150 other prisoners who also had iron collars around their necks and were attached to each other with chains on either side. They were all in a completely dark dungeon that was only opened to light for a short time each day for them to be fed swill. They sat in their own excrement. The Black Pit reeked with the odor of human excrement. He endured this for four months. Then He was exiled for forty years, with twenty years spent in prison in Acca which was one of the most foul cities in the world. The Bab was also a prisoner and was martyred by being shot with seven hundred and fifty rifle balls.
Why did God have Baha'u'llah suffer these injustices? Because His mission was to establish Justice. So He Himself had to experience injustice. The reason Leland had to suffer injustice is that he had to know injustice first-hand for he has to judge God's house, keep God's courts,7 and reestablish the Universal House of Justice given by Baha'u'llah, delineated by 'Abdu'l-Baha and set up by Shoghi Effendi in four stages, all of which was discarded by the Covenant-breaking Hands. The real reason God put Dr. Leland Jensen in prison in Deer Lodge is to prove to the entire world that Dr. Leland Jensen is the one who fulfills the prophecies for the return of Jesus the High Priest. That is, he was in the plan at the beginning.

GOD HAD A PLAN

God had a plan from the very beginning, six thousand years ago in 4000 B.C. Everything that has happened during the last six thousand years was in that plan. Thus Jesus said, "Before Abraham was, I am."8 Was Jesus alive before Abraham? No! What he was saying is that before Abraham was born, he, Jesus, was in the plan of God. This plan was hidden behind a veil. The minor prophets like Daniel and Isaiah where so spiritual that they could pull the veil open and look at part of God's plan. Then they wrote down what they saw and these became the prophecies that are found in the Holy Scriptures. One prophet, Daniel, saw the four dates for the coming of Jesus: 34 A.D., 1844 A.D., 1863 A.D. and 1963 A.D. Other prophets saw the names, addresses and missions of different Promised Ones. When these Promised Ones come they point out that they were prophesied by name, address, date and mission to show their authenticity, for authenticity is the criteria of believability. God purposely gave them this authenticity so that they could carry out the mission that God entrusted them with.
When God placed Dr. Leland Jensen in prison, it wasn't an afterthought on the part of God, but Leland, the return of Jesus, was in the plan of God six thousand years ago. The purpose of this prophecy is to show that the one that fulfills this prophecy is the return of Jesus the High Priest. There is just one person in this world that fulfilled this prophecy. You can be sure that Dr. Leland Jensen didn't go down to the "stone with seven eyes" and knock on the door and say, "Please let me in so that I can fulfill prophecy." No. Like Baha'u'llah, he was brought there against his will.
There may have been other persons named Leland who might have lived in Montana. But there is only one person named Leland who had the "stone with seven eyes" before him. No matter which direction he turned, the "stone with seven eyes" was before him. He began his ministry on the date given by Daniel on April 21st, 1963 when he was opposed by Satan. He was sent to prison on a dirty garment charge. This was to show that neither Baha'u'llah nor any of the other Promised Ones fulfilled this prophecy, for none of the other Promised Ones were in prison on a dirty garment charge. None of the other Promised Ones had the "stone with seven eyes" before them. None of them wore the dirty garment. None of them came in 1963. None of them came in the name of "the Land." And no other Promised One fulfilled his mission.9
Who are you going to believe? Those crackpots on Mt. Carmel that went against God as they were in opposition to Shoghi Effendi, doing away with the plan of God set up by Shoghi Effendi? Or are you going to turn to the return of Jesus the High Priest after the order of Melchizedec, the son (Jesus) returned to establish his Father's (Baha'u'llah's) Kingdom?—
Then cometh the end, when he [Jesus] shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father [Baha'u'llah]; when he [Jesus] shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. For he [Jesus] must reign, till he [Jesus] hath put all enemies [including the Covenant-breakers on Mt. Carmel] under his feet. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is [spiritual] death. For he [Jesus] hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he [Jesus] is excepted, which did put all things under him [Jesus]. And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son [Jesus] also himself be subject unto him [Baha'u'llah] that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. (I Corinthians 15:24-28)

Leland, the Son, hath put the lineage of David that is to exist forever (Psalm 89) back at the head of the Universal House of Justice in four stages as set up by Shoghi Effendi. He established the second International Baha'i Council on January 9th, 1991, exactly forty years to the day from when Shoghi Effendi had set up the first International Baha'i Council, in fulfillment of prophecy. It remained embryonic until Jesus, the authorized person, had it born into this world as the second International Baha'i Council. It will go through the four stages as Shoghi Effendi had planned, next becoming a World Court. This will take place right after the nuclear war when the four "beast nations"—England, France, United States and Russia—become the four living creatures by becoming Baha'i nations as prophesied in the Bible.
…and I will remove the iniquity10 of that [the] land [Leland] in one day (Zechariah 3:9).

What day is that?—
In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree (Zechariah 3:10).

CHAPTER FIVE 

THE ADVENT OF THE CITY OF GOD, THE NEW JERUSALEM, WITH THE STREET OF THE CITY WAS PURE GOLD1 

The prophecies for the establishment of the Holy City in America is as old as the hills. Isaiah tells us the way Jesus will come from the mountains in the Northwest:
Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee [Jesus], and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages [David's lineage]; That thou mayest say to the prisoners [in the Montana State Prison], Go forth; to them that are in darkness [the Christians and the Covenant-breaking Baha'is], Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places.… And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted. Behold, these shall come from far [America]: and, lo, these from the north and from the west [northwest]; and these from the land [Leland] of Sinim. (Isaiah 49:8,9,11,12)

Montana is a northern state bordering on Canada. Deer Lodge is in the Rocky Mountains in the far west of Montana, fulfilling the prophecy of coming in the mountains of the north and west. There are numerable prophecies concerning Jesus coming in the west and in America and in Deer Lodge.

TWO MOUNTAINS OF BRASS

The Mormons thought that Jesus would come to the Mormon Temple in Salt Lake City in Utah. But George Williams, who was associated with the Mormons, prophesied and had visions that saw Jesus coming in the Deer Lodge Valley, Montana where the Temple of God, the City of the Great King, the New Jerusalem, is to be built. In Hebrew the word for copper and brass is the same. On either end of the Deer Lodge Valley (where the prison is located in the city of Deer Lodge) are the world's two largest mountains of Copper: Lincoln and Butte, Montana.
AND I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold, there came four chariots out from between two mountains; and the mountains were mountains of brass (Zechariah 6:1).

Butte is called the 'Richest Hill on earth.' In 1900 Butte produced about one-quarter of the United States copper output and one-seventh of the world's!2 Butte is also called the city a mile high and a mile deep. It is a mile high in the Rocky Mountains and a mile deep with copper mines. Likewise, it is known that Lincoln, Montana has even more copper than Butte, though it hasn't been tapped yet.
It is between these two mountains of brass that the Old Montana Prison in Deer Lodge fulfills the prophecy for the seven-towered temple of Ezekiel's Temple where Jesus II enters through the eastern gate of Tower #7 between the two pillars of Jachin and Boaz (Jesus and Baha'u'llah).
From the prison in Deer Lodge between these two mountains of brass (Lincoln and Butte), the chariots of God and His heavenly army, led by the return of Jesus, will gather to be sent out into the world proclaiming the good news of the establishment of the Kingdom of God:
In the first chariot were red horses; and in the second chariot black horses; and in the third chariot white horses; and in the fourth chariot grizzled and bay horses. Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord? …These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Lord of all the earth (Zechariah 8:1-5).

THE MORRISITES AND GEORGE WILLIAMS

The MORRISITES get their name from Joseph Morris. He appeared on the scene at the height of the great Mormon reformation of 1856.3 It was his mission, much like that of the great reformer Martin Luther, to separate a group of pure-hearted people from the mainstream Mormon church which by that time had deviated from its course. The MORRISITES consider the reformer Morris as only the martyr foreshadower, or forerunner, of their true prophet, George Williams.4
Ten years after the Mormons entered the Great Salt Lake area in Utah in 1857 they had become very corrupt under the leadership of Brigham Young. The main corruption of the Mormons was polygamy. This practice was started by Brigham Young, not by Joseph Smith5 and wasn't announced by Brigham Young as an official Mormon practice until 1852, eight years after Smith had died. The purpose of this was so Brigham Young could marry a lot of rich widows and get their money and land. He would send a young man who was married and had some rich possessions and land to a foreign country, and then marry his wife and appropriate his land and belongings to himself.
Joseph Morris rose up at this time against the corruption of Brigham Young. He was a relatively unknown Mormon like Martin Luther who, in his day, was just one simple monk against the great Pope. Like Luther, Morris had no intention of starting his own religion. He just wanted to reform the Mormon Church in Utah and get rid of all their corruption so they could continue on their true path. However, Brigham Young refused to reform, just like the Pope refused to reform to Martin Luther. Brigham Young decided that he had to get rid of Morris and rub him out. Martin Luther, when he made his declaration, found protection from the Pope under the eight German princes. As long as the US. governmentary remained in the Utah territory, Morris was safe. However, in 1862 with the outbreak of the Civil War, the U.S. army pulled out of Utah, and Brigham Young and his Mormon militia took over. They ruthlessly murdered Joseph Morris and several other MORRISITES, ranking the MORRISITES war right up there with the Mountain Meadows Massacre a few years earlier.
As the Brighamite sheriff Burton, riding roughshod into the MORRISITES camp at Kingston fort, tried to run Joseph Morris down with his horse, he said, "I want no more of your apostasy"6 (clearly showing that the conflict was purely religious in nature), and then shot Morris dead.


THE MILITARY ESCORT OF THE MORRISITES
by Neal Chase

On June 15th, 1862, Joseph Morris was murdered under the direct orders of Brigham Young. At that time the United States Army had already withdrawn from the Utah territory in July of 1861 to fight the Civil War and the Mormon militia under the iron-fisted control of Brigham Young had taken over full power.
The legal writs, warrants and other government authorizations issued to empower the Mormon militia for the murder of Morris was all orchestrated and controlled by Brigham Young through the force of his three main agents: Sheriff Robert T. Burton, who did the actual killing; Judge John F. Kinney, who issued the writs; and Acting Governor Frank Fuller, who placed his seal of approval on the executive order to kill Joseph Morris.
Sheriff Burton was a known pawn and dirty-jobber for Brigham Young. Judge Kinney publicly stated that he was in Brigham's pocket. And acting Governor Fuller was a devout Mormon and follower of Young's.
The Morrisite slaughter was the final atrocity on top of previous abominations of the Mormons such as the Mountain Meadows Massacre, the murder of the Aiken party—another bloody episode—and other heinous crimes that moved the Lincoln Administration, despite the immediate concerns imposed by the Civil War, to re-occupy the Utah Territory and protect the remaining Morrisites from any harm and danger from the violent threats and acts of Brigham Young and his Mormon killers.
Immediately after the murder of Morris and the arraignment of the surviving Morrisites in the court of Judge Kinney, Acting Governor Fuller was relieved of duty on July 7th, 1862 with the arrival of newly appointed Governor Stephen S. Harding. 
Harding was instantly revolted by the slaughter—an oppressive religious war within the territory orchestrated by Young—and immediately set out to get to the truth of the matter. This ended in Harding granting a full exoneration of all charges against the Morrisites as well as the issuance of a strong report back to Washington reaching Abraham Lincoln through the Secretary of State. Lincoln then ordered the Union solders back into the Utah territory, under the leadership of General Patrick Edward Connor, to protect the Morrisite people from further harm. These actions by Lincoln completely infuriated Brigham Young who lashed out at the President from the pulpit in a feverish tirade. 
…and as for those whom Abraham Lincoln has sent here [Connor's troops] if they meddle with our domestic affairs I will send them to hell across lots; and as for those apostates [the Morrisites] running around here, they will probably fall down and their bowels will gush out, or they will bleed somewhere else. [Holy Murder: The Story of Porter Rockwell by Kelly and Birney, pp. 219,220)

Despite the loud threats, General Connor fulfilled his mission by personally overseeing the Morrisite wagon trains safely left the Utah Territory on May 5th, 1863 with a full military escort! One wagon train went south to Carson City, Nevada, while the other train led by Connor moved north to Soda Springs, Idaho, where the Morrisites built a settlement that they named Morris Town. 
It was at this time that George Williams came onto the scene with his visions of the return of Jesus to be in the Deer Lodge Valley in Montana. 
George Williams was never a Morrisite. He always remained a Mormon. It was the MORRISITES, however, who listened to his prophecies and followed his instructions to move to Deer Lodge. Williams was a farmer living in Salt Lake City, but as Brigham Young was looking to do with him as he did with Joseph Morris, Williams moved from Utah back to his native England.

THE FIRST VISION

On April 15th, 1862, while riding on his horse in the mountains of Utah, Williams was overcome by a majestic visitation from the north in the direction of Deer Lodge in which he saw the return of Jesus leading the armies of heaven, riding 'a countless host of horses' out from between two 'massive pillars of light.' These two massive pillars correspond to the two mountains of brass from which the four chariots of the armies of heaven are prophesied to come forth from in Zechariah chapter 6. The two mountains of brass are Lincoln and Butte, Montana. Lincoln is on the north and Butte is on the south of the Deer Lodge Valley.
His first vision was first circulated in hand-written form and was later published by John Eardley in 1899 in a book containing Williams' prophecies and visions entitled Gems of Inspiration. Williams writes:—

After leading a blameless life, and searching after the treasures of eternity, through the gospel of Christ, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit , I was on the 15th day of April A.D. 1862, riding on my spirited mare by the slope of the western range of mountains, near Hacker's Canyon, in Salt Lake Valley, Utah, when snow began to fall in a marvelous manner. A cloud appeared in the north and became agitated, and speedily formed an enormous archway, spanning the entire valley.
On each side of this arch were massive pillars of light, constructed with fine skill, and folding doors studded with golden bolts. Beholding this heavenly appearance, I alighted from my horse, and allowed it to escape.
While meditating this scene, the eyes of my understanding were opened by the spirit of God, so as to understand the things of God as they were from eternity.
The folding doors were thrown back, and the highway to the eternal worlds was opened before me, and a voice strengthened me saying: "fear not, thou greatly beloved of the Lord, these are they that form a portion of the armies of heaven." Beyond the folding doors I saw a countless host of horses, and they who sat upon them had on breast-plates of fire, and diamonds, and helmets of precious stones, and out of the nostrils of the horses came fire and smoke, and their riders had large swords, and their faces were lightened as the sun… (Joseph Morris and the Saga of the Morrisites by C. Leroy Anderson, p. 175).

In the spring of 1863, corresponding exactly to the time of Baha'u'llah's proclamation in the Garden of Ridvan on April 21st, 1863, George Williams, following the direction of God, proclaimed himself to the Morrisite community and declared that Deer Lodge was the sacred spot foreordained in all the books of God to be the site for the Heavenly City, the "City, of the Great King" which is described in the book of Revelation and the Bible as the "New Jerusalem."
At once with joyful hearts and renewed vigor the seemingly beaten band of Morrisites were now set aglow with a new zeal, for they had been saved and redeemed just as Morris had promised they would be after the great Morrisite killings of 1862! Now with the true vision of the seer Williams, they triumphantly gathered their scant material possessions and moved to the Deer Lodge Valley, for them the home of the Promised Land! Some moved directly to Deer Lodge while others moved to Soda Springs, Idaho and Council Bluffs, Iowa later to join the rest of them in Deer Lodge.
Here they built the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, and paved the streets with pure gold (Revelation 21:21), and the city was pure gold (Revelation 21:18). The city was built foursquare, its length, breadth and heighth are equal (Revelation 21:16). The city of Deer Lodge is one mile wide, one mile long and one mile high—a cube—that is, it is one mile above sea level. And they have a river of gold flowing a little way west of Deer Lodge called Gold Creek.
Most of the Morrisites upon arriving in the Deer Lodge Valley went to work in the placer gold mines, and they were paid in gold, which they used to pay for the building of the streets and the city. Thus the city and the streets were paid for with gold, or, in other words, they were paved with gold.
After hearing Williams' great announcement, the first Morrisites moved to Montana in the spring of 1863, the same year that the Deer Lodge Town Company platted the city of Deer Lodge, Montana as a perfect square mile (640 acres). 
By the 1870s the majority of the rest of the Morrisites joined their friends in Deer Lodge to await the return of Jesus in that city, "the City of the Great King."
Williams told the Morrisites to build a Temple in Deer Lodge with stones from the surrounding mountains, for Jesus would come and enter the Temple. He said that they should look for him at the temple on August the 9th. The Morrisites never built the Temple; instead they built a small wooden church, not in Deer Lodge, but about 5 miles south of Deer Lodge where they assembled every year in a great event on August 9th.
Whereas the State of Montana built the Temple for them from the rocks and stones from the surrounding mountains. The return of Jesus entered that Temple in the evening of August 8th, 1969, when he, Leland—the Land—entered the Montana State Prison placed there by God, and he spent his first full day in that Temple on August 9th 1969 at the same time the Morrisites were assembled at their wooden church, waiting there for Jesus. The prophecy of Williams was for them to look for him on August the 9th at the Temple built of stones from the surrounding mountains, not at a wooden church. Thus the Morrisites missed the return of Jesus because they were looking for him in the wrong place, in a wooden church south of Deer Lodge, whereas Jesus was prophesied to come in the Temple in the City of Gold of the Great King.
August 9th, 1969 was the last time the Morrisites met and looked for the return of Jesus.7 However, he had already come, unbeknownst to them, in the Temple inside the City of Gold. If they had followed the instructions of Williams more carefully they would not have missed their hearts' desire. They didn't expect for him to come in prison although he was prophesied by both Williams and Jesus on his first coming that he would return in prison and he would separate the sheep from the goats.

WILLIAMS' OTHER VISIONS 

Williams was specifically clear that it would be the return of Jesus the High Priest after the order of Melchizedec (see Hebrews, chapters 5, 6 and 7) and not the second coming of Christ (which is Baha'u'llah, the descendant of David) who would appear in Deer Lodge! Thus Williams' prophecy of the return of Jesus in prison was specifically referring to the return of Jesus the High Priest, and he entitles his prophecy "the high priesthood returns." Williams and the Morrisites were really into the return of Jesus being of the order of Melchizedec (as the High Priest), and they held that Williams was the one representing him at their time. This clarifies that it was not Jesus Christ, but Jesus the High Priest after the order of Melchizedec who Williams prophesies:
You also wish to know something of Melchizedec—the real Melchizedec [Jesus the High Priest], not one representing him [Williams]. Now mark the first time we hear of him, he declared to be the King of Salem or Peace. Here is brought out the bread and wine to Abraham, our faithful friend and brother. It is not written what was said at this interview; but I have not doubt it would be the same as said to the 12, at his last supper when he8 takes the bread and also the cup saying: "Take, eat and drink, all of you, for this is my body broken, and my blood shed for you. There he stood [Jesus the High Priest] without a scar (George Williams' letter to Erasmussen, December 27, 1881).

Williams gives the astounding fact that the return of Jesus the High Priest (after the order of Melchizedec) will be from the royal line (genealogy) of the Kings of Denmark. Most of the Morrisites were Danes (of the tribe of Dan) that had migrated to Danmark. The Danes were different from the Christians and the Mormons in that they were not waiting for Jesus to descend from the sky, but would be born from the lineage of the Kings of Danmark, or Denmark . Dr. Leland Jensen is a full-blooded Dane on both his mother's (Petersen) and his father's (Jensen) side. His father's line goes back to the royalty of Denmark, fulfilling William's prophecy.
Williams gives the clearest picture of all! Unlike the ridiculous myths of the majority of Christians waiting for Jesus to come down out of the physical sky on a physical cloud, the Morrisites were awaiting the return of Jesus for over 100 years as a descendant of the Kings of Denmark, a real person, to be imprisoned in the city of Deer Lodge in a stone building that was both a prison and Ezekiel's seven-towered Temple. He would be wearing a "dirty garment" as his charge, which the Bab and Baha'u'llah, though in prison, did not have. He would arrive on the day of August 9th of 1969. Williams said that he knew his new name (which we know is Leland: the Land, Ha Eretz; see Zechariah 3:9), but he says it was not for him to reveal. And that his mission as the High Priest after the order of Melchizedec was to open the scroll of the Covenant and to go by the Law of the Book of the Covenant (Will and Testament) in order to establish his Father's Kingdom.
As a capstone to this brief segment of Williams' prophecies is a most remarkable vision of all, of special interest to Baha'is is well as all the people of the world. In an astounding vision in which Muhammad appeared to George Williams, he was instructed to send a messenger from Deer Lodge to Constantinople and rebuke the Sultan of the Turkish Empire, Abdu'l-Aziz, who is the one that imprisoned Baha'u'llah unjustly. Williams prophesies that the Ottoman Empire will be torn down for this evil deed and that the Sultan will lose his power, which he did. The most astounding feature of the vision of Muhammad is that at the end of it Williams hears a multitude of angels singing the most beautiful sound he had ever heard, "Allah'u'Abha! Allah'u'Abha!" over and over again:
Cainan [George Williams] bowed consent and then a pause. Muhammad said, "My time is expired. Farewell." I heard now a loud rushing, it seemed of a thousand voices, the most distinctive sound was Allah Abbah. This proceeded from the same body of light that swept past taking my visitor which I watched till I could see no more. And the voices left their memory, the sweetest ever mortal heard (George Williams' Vision of Muhammad, 1867).

Thus in this vision Williams received the Most Great Name brought by Baha'u'llah and Baha'u'llah alone, thus showing that he had attained, as Baha'u'llah has written: the true station which every Baha'i can attain is that of an Old Testament prophet.
Like Jesus Christ and Baha'u'llah who had John the Baptist and the Bab, respectively, as their forerunners, Dr. Leland Jensen has George Williams and the Morrisites. The entire Deer Lodge Valley was pioneered and settled specifically for his coming so that all the people of the world could be absolutely assured through this proof that he is the authentic and bonafide establisher of the Baha'i Faith, authorized to re-establish what the Covenant-breaking Hands threw out—the genuine IBC/UHJ with the Davidic Kingship as the president and member for life of that body.
The purpose of these prophecies is to establish beyond any doubt whatsoever (through proofs) what the true and full station, mission and authority of Dr. Jensen is as the authentic establisher of the Baha'i faith. The fulfillment of prophecy is given by 'Abdu'l-Baha in Some Answered Questions as the bonafide criteria for recognizing the authenticity of the Promised Ones.9 When we see that they fulfill the prophecies from a number of established sources, like the Biblical proofs given for Jesus on his first coming and those for the coming of Baha'u'llah, then we can see they are authentic and we can believe in them, as authenticity is the criteria for believability. God has been very gracious in sending His Son back at this time of great trouble just before the great catastrophe, guiding those pure souls that had been hoodwinked and bamboozled into following false leaders such as the clergy of the various religions and the Covenant-breaking Hands of the Baha'i faith along with their created monster (without a head) Universal House of Justice.

THE RETURN OF JESUS IS NOT A MANIFESTATION

Consider thou the Day of Resurrection. Were God to pronounce the lowliest of creatures among the faithful to be the First One to believe in the Bayan, thou shouldst have no misgivings about it and must be of them that truly believe. In this station look not upon human limitations and names but rather upon that whereby the rank of the First One to believe is vindicated, which is faith in God, and recognition of His being and assurance in the fulfillment of His irresistible and binding command.
Consider thou the Revelation of the Point of the Bayan [the Bab]—exalted is His glory. He pronounced the First One to believe in Him [Mulla Husayn] to be Muhammad, the Messenger of God. [Yet Mulla Husayn was not a Manifestation! But a follower of the Manifestation!] Does it beseem a man to dispute with Him by saying that this man is from Persia, the Other from Arabia, or this one was called Husayn while the Other bore the name Muhammad? Nay, I swear by God's holy Being, the Exalted, the Most Great. Surely no man of intelligence and insight would ever pay attention unto limitations or names, but rather unto that with which Muhammad was invested, which was none other than the Cause of God. Such a man of insight would likewise consider [Mulla] Husayn and the position he occupied in the Cause of God, the Omnipotent, the Exalted, the Knowing, the Wise (Tablets of Baha'u'llah, pp. 184, 185).

And since the First One to believe in God in the Dispensation of the Bayan was invested with command similar to that with which Muhammad, the Messenger of God, was invested, therefore the Bab pronounced him to be the latter, namely, His return and resurrection. This station [although Mulla Husayn was not a Manifestation] is sanctified from every limitation or name, and naught can be seen therein but God, the One, the Peerless, the All-knowing.
The Bab was the Promised Manifestation of Islam, and therefore Mullah Husayn, the First One to fully believe and comprehend His Revelation, was invested with the station of being the return and resurrection of Muhammad, although Mullah Husayn was not himself a Manifestation of God like the Bab but was, rather, His follower. The coming of Baha'u'llah is that of the second coming of Christ, the fulfillment of Christianity and therefore the First One in this Great Revelation, the establisher of the Baha'i Faith, holds the station of the return and resurrection of Jesus without being a Manifestation of God, the same as Mulla Husayn was not a Manifestation of God yet was the return of Muhammad.

CHAPTER SIX

JOSEPH SMITH

What is the true status or station of Joseph Smith?

Shoghi Effendi rightly explains Joseph Smith as a SEER and not a PROPHET! He is not an independent prophet—a Manifestation who reveals a book—nor even a minor prophet of God like Daniel or Ezekiel who were firm in the Covenant of God under the Manifestation of their day. Smith is only a seer! "Seer" means that he can "see" certain things that are true but not that he is some sort of infallible guide or even that he is part of the religion of God! Shoghi Effendi makes this distinction absolutely clear and it cannot be ignored!
Joseph Smith was a seer, NOT A PROPHET OF GOD, NEITHER MAJOR NOR MINOR PROPHET (Memories of 'Abdu'l-Baha, by R. A. Brown p. 117 ).

What this means is that Smith could see visions and glimpses of the future but he did not speak or write on behalf of God and is not a prophet of God. The Bible is full of seers who were not prophets of God such as Pharaoh and Nebuchadnezzar. Pharaoh saw the true dream and vision of the seven fat cows and the seven thin cows, etc. Therefore he was a seer because he saw this. But he did not know the meaning of it. It was Joseph1 the prophet of God who interpreted the dream and gave the correct meaning of it. Likewise Nebuchadnezzar was into astrology, and he was a seer. He saw the dream of the giant statue (representing the powers of the world until the coming of the Kingdom of God). But he both forgot the dream and didn't know its meaning. Therefore Daniel the prophet of God told him the vision of the dream and its meaning.
The reason God uses people like Pharaoh, Nebuchadnezzar or Joseph Smith is that they are popular and well-known. Through them the fame and renown of the message of their vision spreads to all parts of the world and all people hear about it. Because of Smith, all people should know the prophecy of the return of Jesus in America. Clearly Baha'u'llah was never in America or the United States at all! If God gave these visions and prophecies to people who were unknown, then these visions would be ignored by everyone. So instead He lets someone famous have the vision who is a seer. But then He has one who is from God come to give the meaning of it. Thus the vision of the seer, through the explanation of one like Daniel or Joseph, becomes the cause of the people accepting the true religion of God.
Now, just because Pharaoh, Nebuchadnezzar and Smith were seers with true visions, such as those recorded in the Bible, it does not mean that we convert to their corrupted forms of religion and/or paganism! No! God forbid! This is so that through the visions given to famous people such as Smith, Jean Dixon, Nebuchadnezzar, Pharaoh, etc, all people hear about it. Then when the true explanation is given by an authoritative one speaking on behalf of God, the people can turn to the religion of God and not to something else.
As to the actual facts and events surrounding The Book of Mormon of Joseph Smith, you are completely uninformed!
When Smith was 14 years old, he had a vision of the two Christs. He saw the Father and the Son as two separate people: Baha'u'llah and Jesus. Later Smith saw that the return of Jesus would be in America in the Temple described by Ezekiel in the Bible which would be located in the Rocky Mountains. Thus,  up until the time he died in 1844 Smith directed his people to go to the Rocky Mountains "to prepare the way" for the return of Jesus.
However, when he was 14 no one would listen to him, so he needed a way to get the people's attention. Having been a treasure seeker, he took his own ideas and visions and wrote them into The Book of Mormon which he fabricated based on a manuscript that had been stolen years earlier from Solomon Spaulding.
Solomon Spaulding had been studying religion at Dartmouth College where one of the popular ideas of the day was that the Native American Indians were supposed to have been descended from the ten lost tribes of Israel. Based on this fanciful idea Spaulding wrote a Romantic Novel called Manuscript Found about a modern man who discovers "tablets" with the lost history of the Americas inscribed on them. Spaulding had submitted his manuscript to R. and J. Patterson's print shop, who said they were interested in printing the book. However, in 1816, right before Spaulding died, Patterson told him that his book, Manuscript Found, had been lost.
One of the employees at Patterson's print shop, J.H. Lambdin, was friends with Sidney Rigdon, a Campbellite preacher who was the friend and co-religionist of Joseph Smith. Before Spaulding died he told several people that he knew for a fact that Rigdon had stolen his manuscript. One of those he told was Dr. Cephas Dodd who was Spaulding's attending physician during his last illness (see photo). Dr. Cephas Dodd testifies:
This work [The Book of Mormon], I am convinced by facts related to me by my deceased patient, Solomon Spaulding, has been made from the writings of Spaulding, probably by Sidney Rigdon, who was suspicioned by Spaulding with purloining his manuscript from the publishing-house to which he had taken it; and I am prepared to testify that Spaulding told me that his work was entitled, "The Manuscript Found in the Wilds of Mormon; or Unearthed Records of the Nephites." From his description of the contents, I fully believe that this Book of Mormon is mainly and wickedly copied from it [Who Really Wrote the Book of Mormon? by Davis, p. 74].

Rigdon was seen at the Smith farm in New York after Spaulding's manuscript was stolen and before The Book of Mormon was written.
During some of my visits at the Smith's, I saw a stranger there who they said was Mr. Rigdon. He was at Smith's several times, and it was in the year of 1827 [The Book of Mormon was published in 1830] when I first saw him there, as near as I can recollect. Some time after that tales were circulating that a young Joe had found or dug from the earth a Book of Plates which the Smiths called the Golden Bible [Have You Witnessed to a Mormon Lately? by Spencer, p. 207]

Later when The Book of Mormon was first published, all of Spaulding's friends and family immediately recognized the story and the names and places as those from Spaulding's stolen manuscript. It was easy to connect Joseph Smith back to Rigdon who by that time was a well-known Mormon. Spaulding's brother writes:
He [Solomon] then told me he was writing a book…. It was an historical romance of the first settlers of America, endeavoring to show that the American Indians are the descendants of the Jews, or the lost tribes. It gave a detailed account of their journey from Jerusalem, by land and sea, till they arrived in America, under the command of Nephi and Lehi. They afterwards had quarrels and contentions and separated into two distinct nations, one of which he denominated Nephites, and the other Lamanites. Cruel and bloody wars ensued, in which great multitudes were slain. They buried their dead in large heaps, which caused the mounds so common in this country. Their arts, sciences and civilization were brought into view in order to account for all the curious antiquities found in various parts of North and South America. I have recently read The Book of Mormon and to my great surprise I find nearly the same historical matter, names, etc., as they were in my brother's writings. I well remember he wrote in the old style, and commenced about every sentence with 'And it came to pass,' or 'Now it came to pass,' the same as The Book of Mormon, and according to the best of my recollection and belief, it is the same as my brother Solomon wrote, with the exception of the religious part.

So Smith added his own visions and beliefs, "the religious part," on top of Spaulding's story of the ancient happenings of America. The fact that Smith wrote The Book of Mormon himself based in part on the Bible, the beliefs of his day, Spaulding's manuscript, and his own visions cannot be denied. The very first edition of The Book of Mormon did not even claim to be a "translation of gold plates" but instead stated that Smith did in fact write the book himself!
In the first edition of The Book of Mormon, the statement of the eight witnesses declares that Joseph Smith, Jr. was "author and proprietor of this work." This statement also appeared on the title page of the first edition.
The subsequent editions have the eight witnesses saying that Smith was the "translator" of the book. The title page is also changed. I. W. Riley remarks that "the name of author and proprietor of The Book of Mormon was inadvertently assumed and quickly discarded."
All told there have been at least 3,913 changes added to and deleted from The Book of Mormon since the first edition. Likewise there were never any physical gold plates found. This was also a story made up by Smith (which he learned from the Free Masons) to attract attention to the movement. If he did have actual physical gold plates they would have weighed over 234 pounds! This is ridiculous! No one could carry that weight around by himself in "out-stretched arms" or with one hand! Further, witnesses testified that they never even saw any physical gold plates!
Martin Harris and David Whitmer [two of the
