The Promised Messiah and Mahdi — Page 67
THE PROMISED MESSIAH AND MAHDI the Prophet for whom God has shown His jealousy and for his truth and support has shown thousands of miracles. . In this age too, the Holy Prophet was greatly insulted and. . God's jealousy showed resurgence more than in past ages and He sent me as the Promised Messiah so that I may bear witness in the whole world for his Prophethood. I am false, if my claim is without proof. . But if God bears witness for me with His signs in a manner which is unparalleled in the whole world, justice and fear of God demand that you accept me along with my teaching. God has shown those signs for me that if they had been shown to other communities before, they would not have perished with water, wind or fire. The people of this age are such that they have eyes but do not see, they have ears but do not hear and they have intellect but do not understand. I weep for them and they laugh at me. I give them water of life and they shower fire on me. God has manifested on me with both His word and His action. He has shown such deeds for me which require His special grace. People left me but God accepted me. Who can compete with me in showing these signs? I have appeared so that God be manifested through me. He was a hidden treasure but by sending me,. He has intended to shut up and humiliate all the atheists and faithless. who say that there is no God. O' Dear ones, you who seek God, I give you good news that the true God is One Who revealed the Quran. He is the same who has manifested to me and is with me every moment. . O' Christian Priests, I take an oath of God who sent His. Messiah and I invite you that you must read my book, Haqeeqatul. Wahi from beginning to end. If some scholarly persons will demand this book sincerely with the promise that they will read the whole book, I shall send the book free. truth. 0. Now I end and pray that may God be with the seekers after. Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, The Promised Messiah. . Qadian, March 20, 1907 67
