At a time when forces of destruction are sweeping the surface of the earth, plunging the whole of the human race into a state of chaos and dismay and uprooting its time-honoured institutions, the comparatively small Baha'i community is erecting the framework of new institutions embracing the whole planet and designed to evolve, in the fullness of time, into Baha'u'llah's New World Order.
