A talk based on Shoghi Effendi's summary of the Baha'i Faith (links below), its Founders, teachings, tenets and the necessary means for the eventual establishment of the oneness of mankind. bahai-library.... www.bic.org/st...
What I like about Baha’u’llah is that he has taught that just because you believe something it doesn’t make it true. Truth is gleaned through independent investigation and love. If it doesn’t result in unity it needs to be abandoned, period.
Gracias de nuevo Señor Dunbar siempre es hermoso para la mente, el alma recordar los principios divinos bahais, adornados con la realidad a su estilo. Siempre me motiva seguir estudiando y actuando en la enseñanza. Espero estos videos podamos compartir con todos los amigos que conocemos, así seguimos aprendiendo, o teniendo momentos de reflexión, meditación y ganas de actuar en el servicio de esta Causa Divina.
Even when one chooses "incorrectly," one is still choosing God's Will. Failure is God's Will as well as success. The "choice" is , God or self. One should learn quickly which choice feels better, indeed, healthy.
The natural extension of free choice or 'existentialism' can be belief in God because of what Christine said. Our good and bad choices are fully predicted and guided by the lord.
@JamshidRowshan, you said, "An "islamic" religion. World? Not really". The Bahá'í Faith is not an "islamic religion." It's a new Revelation from God. The same as Christianity, which is not a Jewish religion but a new Revelation from God. Islam also fulfills Christian prophecies, although most people don't realize that, but the explanation is in the Bahá'í writings and makes perfect sense of what had seemed inexplicable, especially in the Book of Revelation in the Bible. As for whether the Bahá'í Faith is a world religion, in just 150 years or so, it has spread to every country and territory of the world, its writings have been translated into around 800 languages, and its teachings are world-embracing. It establishes new and different teachings from Islam like the equality of men and women and the forbidding of slavery. So-called holy war is not allowed, only peaceful means to spread the teachings. All contributions to the Faith are voluntary and can only be given by believers. Clergy are not permitted (one of the reasons the early believers were considered such a threat to Islam). Bahá'u'lláh commanded us to "Consort with the followers of all religions with friendliness and fellowship." There are no unclean people or objects. This religion is not based on the Qur'án although it acknowledges it as a Holy Book. It's based on Bahá'u'lláh's writings, about 6 million words worth extant in the Holy Land. I hope this explains things well enough. Feel free to ask questions if you like. We love to answer those as our questions were answered when we asked them in our search for truth.
@@wendyscott8425thank you for your opinions, the facts are contradictory. BEST wishes. I Will read again your apology, then Will answer. Thank you again for your comment.
Yes, a question: did you read the Apocalipse of John? "Revealed" in Greek (with gramatical mistakes) 60 years after the death of Jesus written and copy of copy of copies by Who knows Who. Thank you
@@JamshidRowshan Not sure what facts you're talking about, but if you think they're contradictory, no problem. I'm not here to change anyone's mind, just share what I have found to be true for myself. Obviously, not everyone is going to agree with me. After 60 years in the Faith, I'm pretty used to that!
