Bahá'u'lláh was NOT a prophet, but a MANIFESTATION

A MANIFESTATION IS NOT A PROPHET

I have always thought that Manifestations are not prophets at all. Manifestations like Moses, Jesus, Muhammad and Bahá'u'lláh don't predict the future. They start the future. Through Bahá'u'lláh God has started a new era. It's like God is the Employer, Bahá'u'lláh the Foreman and we are the workers. The Employer expect that the work shall be done and gives instructions to the Foreman. And this is not prohecies, because the Employer and the Foreman don't predict that the work shall be done. They know that the work shall be done.

Jesaja was a prophet. Elisa was a prophet, Jeremiah was a profet, etc, and maybe also 'Abdu'l-Bahá was a prophet. But Zarathustra, Krishna, Moses, Buddha, Jesus, Muhammad, Báb and Bahá'u'lláh were Manifestations = Foremen. They didn't predict anything – the started new eras by giving God's orders to the humanity.
