136 Mahzarnama [Tiryaaqul Quloob, Roohaani Khazaa’in, vol. 15, pp. 137-139] "The raison d'etre of the Promised Messiah, as stated in the Holy Prophet's Ahadith, is that he will counter the duplicity of the Christian people and will demonstrably demolish their Cross- based doctrine. Therefore, God, the Exalted, caused this task to be accomplished at my hands in such a manner as to render the basic premise of Christian doctrine extinct. On the basis of profound spiritual perception granted to me perfectly by God, I proved how the accursed death which (God forbid) is ascribed to the Messiah on which the whole edifice of the Cross-based salvation rests cannot be ascribed to Hadhrat Isa, on whom be peace; and the implications of a curse cannot be made applicable to a truthful personage. Consequently, the class of priests has become speechless in the face of this novel approach which in fact smashes their doctrine to bits; and those who have become aware of this formulation of truth, have come to realize that this superb form of investigation has broken up the religion of the cross. Letters from some priests have given me to understand how apprehensive they are of this decisive formulation of truth, and they have come to realize that it will certainly demolish the foundation of the religion of the cross, and that its demolition will be horrible. " [ Kitaab-ul-Bariyyah, Roohaani Khazaa’in vol. 13, p. 262, footnote ] "I am constantly engrossed in thinking that we must reach a crucial decision with the Christians. My heart bleeds over the mischief of worshiping the dead and I am experiencing much vexation on its account. Can there be a greater cause of heartache than that a humble human-being has been labelled God, and a handful-of-dust is being taken for the Lord of all the worlds. This grief would have consumed me long ago, had my Lord, my God of transcendent Power and Authority not reassured me that the Unity of God will ultimately triumph; the non-gods will perish His angels invoke blessings on him. O, ye who believe, do also invoke blessings on him and with the salutation of peace. )
