    Is progressive revelation believable?

    That's why Baha'u'llah explained why the religions seemed different, that all the major world scriptures are part of one book of God with different chapters of each time and age.

    Is progressive revelation believable?

    If you're talking about the claims of the current Prophet / Messenger / Manifestation of God that's known as Baha'u'llah, then you will find that His life and His teachings are the proofs and evidences of what He is.

    Is progressive revelation believable?

    And that's one reason why I am baha'i. It's because I don't want to be bias about anything, and I want to seek truths where ever it may be.

    Is progressive revelation believable?

    Some people ask why is there multiple religions in the world, which God is true the christians God or the Islamic Allah? But what if I told you that divine revelation is progressive. That Prophets / Messengers known as Manifestations of God has been sent in every age in human history and...

    An introduction.

    I'm talking about in baha'i belief, that the number 9 is a symbol of completeness and that it is the highest single digit. The number 9 in baha'i belief also represents Baha'u'llah.

    An introduction.

    Hi paarsurrey. What I wanted to show you came up, so now we can talk more. You are saying all that because you don't believe that Baha'u'llah is a Messenger from God. You keep coming back to converse directly with God, and I keep reminding you that God is beyond His creation even His...

    Hi paarsurrey. I know I've been off the forum for awhile but the reason why is because I actually been waiting on something to show you but it hasn't came up yet, and when it does we'll have conversations more. But to your current question, no Prophet / Messenger was God Himself. What they are...

    An introduction.

    That's like asking who first used the word 'christian' for himself and who first used the word 'muslim' for himself. It is not called bahaism, it is officially called the baha'i faith. I'll look up the information and let you know.

    An introduction.

    The word baha'i signifies that one is a follower of Baha'u'llah, just as the word christian signifies that one is a follower of Jesus Christ, and the word muslim signifies one is a follower of Prophet Muhammad. More information on Baha'u'llah: Bahá’u’lláh | What Bahá’ís Believe The Life of...

    An introduction.

    The Kitáb-i-Aqdas is actually the core book of the baha'i faith. Tht Kitáb-i-íqán is the book of certitude. Baha'u'llah reviled and wrote a lot of revelation with his own hand.

    An introduction.

    Every Prophet / Messenger conversed with God but it wasn't with a human voice, God is beyond His creation. Do it not say in the Qur'an that: there is nothing like unto Him. Let me give you an example. You know how in christianity most of the followers believe that Jesus Christ was God Himself...

    An introduction.

    God's current revelation for this day and age also uses the word 'say'. It says in the Kitáb-i-Aqdas: Say: O leaders of religion! Weigh not the Book of God with such standards and sciences as are current amongst you, for the Book itself is the unerring balance established amongst men. In this...

    Thanks. Check out my introduction post.

    Proselytizing: What is it and is it a good or bad thing?

    'Proselytising shows no actual interest in the other person at all'. Yes, I agree and that's the point I'm trying to make. If I want you to hear what I have to say but I don't want to hear what you have to say, then the conversation is in vain and we're not going to get anywhere

    Proselytizing: What is it and is it a good or bad thing?

    I agree. Everything should be done and said with good and well meaning intention, and not with ego and selfishness.

    Proselytizing: What is it and is it a good or bad thing?

    It's all about sharing views because we can all have something to learn from each other. Proselytizing is not even in my category, you can not and shouldn't try to convert no one, only God can do that. I hope that most of us are here to find information and truth. I don't really consider...

    Proselytizing: What is it and is it a good or bad thing?

    Hi. I was redirected here by the link you sent to me because you wanted to let me know that proselytizing is not allowed on the forum. This may be a tricky thing because it is not my intention to try to force someone into conversion, only God can convert someone. I'm just responding to the...

    An introduction.

    Hi paarsurrey. Baha'u'llah has revealed in this day and age that, we have to be careful not to take the divine scriptures totally literal. This has been a huge mistake that the followers of past revelations has taken the scriptures literally and has kept them from recognizing the next...
