And what of the advent of Judaism's "Lord of Hosts"; Christianity's "Return of Christ in the glory of the Father"; Islam's "Great Announcement"; Buddhism's Maitreya Buddha; Hinduism's new incarnation of Krishna; and Zoroastrianism's "Sháh-Bahrám"?
"Consider the past. How many, both high and low, have, at all times, yearningly awaited the advent of the Manifestations of God in the sanctified persons of His chosen Ones. How often have they expected His coming, how frequently have they prayed that the breeze of Divine mercy might blow, and the promised Beauty step forth from behind the veil of concealment, and be made manifest to all the world. And whensoever the portals of grace did open, and the clouds of divine bounty did rain upon mankind, and the light of the Unseen did shine above the horizon of celestial might, they all denied Him, and turned away from His face—the face of God Himself." -Baha'u'llah
