Echoes of Faith: Progressive Revelation

Echoes of Faith:
Progressive Revelation

I hear the echoes of faith--
of "God does whatsoever He will!"--
reverberating through the temples of religion.

I see the light--
of "There is no God but God!"--
reflected from mirrors Divine Manifestation:
         Krishna,
         Zoroaster,
         Abraham,
         Moses,
         Buddha,
         Christ,
         Muhammad,
         the Bab,
         and Baha'u'llah.

I hear the echoes of faith--
of "God will not be ask of His doings!"--
reverberating through the relics of salvation.

Poet's Note: ▼

I begin this poem sometime in 156 B.E. I got stuck and didn't finish it. I found it a few days ago and decided to finish it. It is about Progressive Revelation.
