Asministrative authority
Dear friend (Guest), Abdu'l-Baha was true in saying he is only a man, Jesus Christ also was only a man, same for Muhammad and the Bàb and Baha'u'llah. If one don't look at religious scriptures with his spiritual eye, then it is clear he will miss 50 % means he will be in his veils and in fact he wil...

Those appointed by God the All Mighty
Seeker, Allah'u'abha, It's true we don't have to exalt men over ourselves. So Baha'u'llah is the prophet of God the Most Exalted (= God the Glorious, more than a man). He appointed Abdu'l-baha (who then becomes more than a man). Abdu'l-Baha appointed Shoggi Effendi (who then becomes more than a man)...

Can we give the name of a Manifestation of God to a baby
May we call a baby Baha ? Or Bàb ? Or Hussayn-ali ?
Is there any scripture statement about this question ?
Any feeling ?
I think that in Haifa Shoggi forbad the israelian governement to put the name of a street as "Baha".

so...we have something indicating monarchy and something indicating democracy. I don't agree that democracy means power to the people. In fact the democraties we see today are just other types of oligarchy (just look around the world, in every "democraty" the rulers are generally coming from the sa...

The Ruler of Tà announced in the Kitab'i'Aqdas
In the Kitab'i'Aqdas verse 91, Baha'u'llah says : 91 Let nothing grieve thee, O Land of Tá [Tihrán], for God hath chosen thee to be the source of the joy of all mankind. He shall, if it be His Will, bless thy throne with one who will rule with justice, who will gather together the flock of God which...

Can we change terms of a revealed prayer ?
Hello, I've always think that we could take a revealed prayer and change some words in it to adapt it to a particular situation. For example I thuoght we could, change a pronoun like "he" by "she" or a pronoun by a name while saying a prayer. But yesterday some friends told that, according to the Gu...

A bahai point of view on non bahai points of vue
Hello
I want to say just few words.
Me too I thought I was a "good christian".
On december 2003 I read the Kitab'i'Aqdas.
Since that I know Baha'u'llah is God.
He is the one who does what He wants.
The beginning of everything is Him. The end of all things is Him.
Good day.
