The Advent of Divine Justice by Effendi Shoghi
"The Advent of Divine Justice" by Shoghi Effendi is a spiritual treatise written in the mid-20th century. This work addresses the responsibilities and opportunities facing the Bahá'í community, particularly in the context of social justice, moral rectitude, and the propagation of Bahá'u'lláh's teachings. The author emphasizes the need for unity among diverse races and classes, as well as the community's role in pioneering the establishment of a new world order. The openingportion of the book sets a tone of urgency and hope as it discusses the critical challenges and responsibilities confronting the Bahá'í community, especially in the wake of persecution. The author expresses profound admiration for the efforts of believers, while also emphasizing the moral and spiritual qualities needed to navigate these trials. He lays out the importance of the Seven Year Plan—the dual focus on the construction of a Temple and the expansion of teaching efforts—as essential avenues for fulfilling their divine mission, urging every member of the community to engage actively in this transformative work. Furthermore, the words reflect on the significant role that American believers must play in heralding the principles of justice and unity in a world fraught with division and conflict.
