Examination of a Declaration of Trust prepared under the Guidance of Shoghi Effendi

Shoghi Effendi, the first Guardian of the Bahá'í Faith, officially taught that "the establishment" of the "Divine Civilization" "is the primary mission of the Bahá'í Faith" (WOB, page 4).  That "Divine Civilization" is the prophesied Kingdom of God on Earth. In 1930 Shoghi Effendi was the infallible protector and guide of the Bahá'í Faith, and on the title page of The Bahá'í World 1928-1930 are written these very significant words:

"Prepared under the supervision of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá'ís of the United States and Canada with the approval of SHOGHI EFFENDI"  (The upper case letters used for the first Guardian's name are the publisher's)

Starting on page 96 of The Bahá'í World 1928-1930, the publishers of that book present the "DECLARATION OF TRUST By the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá'ís of the United States and Canada"

Why is it vital/critical for sincere Bahá'ís, today, to carefully examine the ARTICLES  of that DECLARATION OF TRUST?  The reason is this:  That  DECLARATION OF TRUST  was prepared with the "approval of SHOGHI EFFENDI", the infallible protector of the Cause of God, and if, during our examination of that Document, we discover that it contains
vital features which are conspicuously missing from current administrative applications imposed upon heterodox Bahá'ís around the Earth by the current sans-Guardian Bahá'í administration operating on Mt. Carmel, we can sound the alarm to warn all sincere Bahá'ís and all true seekers that flagrant betrayal of Shoghi Effendi and flagrant betrayal of the DECLARATION OF TRUST which he personally approved is being perpetrated by the illegitimate administration currently imposing itself upon millions of sans-Guardian Bahá'ís.

And, yes, in fact we do discover such vital features approved by Shoghi Effendi to be missing from today's heterodox Bahá'í administration of Haifa/Wilmette.

In ARTICLE I of the DECLARATION OF TRUST, on page 97 these words are written:

"--we declare the purposes and objects of this Trust to be to administer the affairs of the Cause of Bahá'u'lláh for the benefit of the Bahá'ís of the United States and Canada according to the principles of Bahá'í affiliation and administration created and established by Bahá'u'lláh, defined and explained by `Abdu'l-Bahá, and amplified and applied by Shoghi Effendi and his duly constituted successor and successors under the provision of the Will and Testament of `Abdu'l-Bahá."

Clearly, in view of the fact that any "principles of Bahá'í affiliation" which may need to be "amplified" by the "duly constituted successor and successors" of Shoghi Effendi MUST be
"amplified" "under the provision of the Will and Testament of `Abdu'l-Bahá" which sacred and immutable Document is Holy Bahá'í Text, as taught by Shoghi Effendi (WOB page 4), only a "successor" authorized and empowered to interpret Holy Bahá'í Text, can legally, in the true Bahá'í Faith make such amplification of "principles of Bahá'í affiliation".

The current heterodox Bahá'í administration of Haifa/Wilmette DOES NOT HAVE such an authorized interpreter of Holy Bahá'í Text, because only a living Guardian of the Bahá'í Faith is legally authorized to interpret Bahá'í Holy Text.

The current heterodox Bahá'í administration's betrayal of the DECLARATION OF TRUST officially approved by Shoghi Effendi is clear and evident.

In ARTICLE II of the DECLARATION OF TRUST, on page 99 these words are written:

"The Bahá'ís of the United States and Canada, for whose benefit this Trust has been established, shall consist of all persons resident in the United States and Canada who are recognized by the National Spiritual Assembly as having fulfilled the requirements of voting membership in a local Bahá'í community.  To become a voting member of a Bahá'í community a person shall--c.  Have established to the satisfaction of the local Spiritual Assembly, subject to the approval of the National Assembly, that he possesses the qualifications of Bahá'í faith and practice, required under the following standard:  ... loyal and steadfast adherence to every clause of `Abdu'l-Bahá's sacred Will;"

Why has that requirement, "loyal and steadfast adherence to every clause of `Abdu'l-Bahá's sacred Will;" approved by the infallible first Guardian, been illegally omitted/ abrogated/ rejected by the current sans-Guardian Bahá'í  administration of Haifa/Wilmette?

Such betrayal of Shoghi Effendi, such dishonor and betrayal of `Abdu'l-Bahá by desecrating His Holy Will and Testament, diminishing the importance of that Holy Document in the eyes of millions of Bahá'í women and men is now exposed and made evident by demonstrating the contrast between the Declaration of Trust approved by Shoghi Effendi
for National Spiritual Assemblies and the defective, negligent and renegade administrative applications imposed by the current sans-Guardian Bahá'í administration of Haifa/Wilmette.
