God as Revealed by Bahá’u’lláh

Is it possible that humans can actually know God’s intimacy or Essence to the point that they can affirm that such knowledge is correct, authentic and authoritative?No. For the simple reason that man is a created being, and thus he is simply incapable of knowing his Creator in such a way and depth that he can affirm that he knows Who God is. In fact, the contrary is true. For any created being, the Innermost Essence of his creator is simply Unknowable. No human being can fully, entirely of sufficiently know its Creator. His condition of created being has inherently given each one of us a limited understanding of any reality. If this is the human condition in relation to our Creator, how can we then be assured that we have an authoritative source that can tell us something about God’s Attributes in a way that we can be confident that it is the best and most accurate description?At this moment we humans have to rely on a Revelation given to us by a Messenger of God, who is so close to Him that he actually has an experience of God that no other human being has. This is the objective and intention of this book. It is an exploration into what the most recent Messenger of God, Bahá’u’lláh, has given us as a description of God’s Attributes, in terms that we can make sense and comprehend a glimpse of the depth and excellence of our Creator. You are invited to explore it.
