| Abstract | "Throughout the vast spectrum of world religions, Baha'i is considered one of the youngest. While claiming to be the continuation of all the religious movements of history, their concepts and principles closely align with Shi'ite Islam. Regardless of the foundations of this religion, it is growing considerably and deserves attention from the Christian apologist. Given the nature of this worldview, it is the intent of this analysis to give an objective summary of the Baha'i, analyze the worldview against Christianity, and explore a Christian evangelistic approach to members of the Baha'i faith." The author repeatedly condemns Bahá'ís as "in complete opposition to the Christian faith," knowing "nothing of the intimacy involved in the relationship with God," "have no assurance of salvation," and subject to a "severity of depravity." The author uses two anti-Bahá'í works and one encyclopedia article by a Bahá'í. He does not reference or quote from Bahá'í scriptures, nor has he read any of the comparative works on theology and Bahá'í relations with Christianity. He is unlikely to convert any Bahá'ís to Christianity. |
