"And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar
the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for
the testimony which they held: And they cried with a loud voice,
saying, How Long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and
avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
"And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it
was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little
season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren,
that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled." (Bible,
Revelation 6:9-11)
They were slain. But they didn't realize or understand what was
happening, so they were telling God, "When are you going to bring
Your Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth? We thought that was us." They
thought the Baha'i teaching was it. It was such a wonderful
universal teaching. It was saying that all religions basically were
the same and they were given all the system to bring It, "What
happened? Why is it not happening?"
God said, "Not yet. You have to wait for a little while. This is
not It. Your brethren have to be slain too." When the brethren are
slain, that is the time when the Kingdom Of Heaven comes. When is
that? Now! We can see another sign. The brethren were slain.
The Bahá'ís were wealthy people in Iran. In the last ten years
(1980-1990) they were persecuted in Iran. Their properties were
confiscated. Actually you can't find them in that country anymore.
Either they were slain, have gone under-ground, or left the country,
etc. We can see the prophecy above is now FULFILLED.
