Right! When Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, the life", we have to remember... who is "I" when Jesus is speaking? Is it a carpenter from Nazareth? Nay! It's the tongue of God.

As Muslims believe that Muhammed was the final prophet, they feel Muhammed must fulfill all the prophecies of future prophets, including Kalki Avatar and Maitreya. They forget though that Christ is still due, and the Bible and Quran associate this with a "new creation" and a completely new age...

Nope... noe the Arabic translations. It's nothing to deter us though... consider the parallel with Immanuel/Christ! Isa 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. This hasn't deterred some 2...

Hi Bruce, While there are various passages in Isaiah that refer to Baha'u'llah, Isaiah 53 unquestionably refers to Christ's first coming. The Bahai sites that try to apply it to Baha'u'llah are following the error made by William Sears in "Thief in the Night". This point made the book lose...

I recognise this statement from the BCI prophecy fulfilled site. It's sadly not true though, Husayn is Farsi for "Beautiful". None of Baha'u'llah's Names (both birth names and titles) translate into "Kindness". This doesn't take anything away from the proof though. Consider how the Jews...

Hi Reed, The Perfect Teachers I refer to are: - Abraham, Buddha, Moses, Krishna, Zoroaster, Christ, Muhammed, The Bab, Baha'u'llah. Warmest, Ocean Drop

Hi El Greko, Ok pronounciations: - The Bab. Pronounced: Somewhere between The Barb/The Bob Baha'u'llah. Prounounced: Approx. Bah - har - oo - lar Abdu'l'Baha. Pronounced: Ab - dool - Bah - har As mentioned above, we have the concept of Manifestation of God - that is to say The...

I'm quite familiar with this site... just like to point out that there's a few errors on it and it doesn't represent the official Baha'i view. For example, Christians should ignore anything there relating Isaiah 53 to Baha'u'llah, as this refers to Christ's first coming. For every bad point...

Bingo!! You just hit on one of the underlying purposes of God sending forth His prophets. The Baha'i writings liken the appearance of a Manifestation with the Rising of the Sun above the Horizon, illumining the hearts of mankind. This is a true gem... hopefully someone will post a passage...

Briefly, every religion associates the coming of the Promised One with mankind entering a new age. The Hindu's await the Kalki Avatar to appear and end the Kali Yuga (dark age) and bring about a Golden Age. The Buddhists await Maitreya. Zoroastarians await a "World-Renovator". Christians and...

Hi Vajradhara, What sort of an event do you envisage that could wipe out the millions of Buddhist Books around the world, including those stored digitally? We're talking an event that would affect everywhere from the mountains of Tibet to the books in your own library. I think Dale's...

Many modern Hindu scholars who are returning to Vedic Scripture and translating the original Sanskrit are concluding that Hinduism teaches Monotheism! Many reformers, particularly during the mid-late 1800's introduced such teachings aswell as abandoning idol worship and other customs that are...

I think all your responses to that person were praiseworthy and just. :)

The rapture? Oh please... 2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 2Ti 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. A...

Spoilt for choice really :) For starters: - For spiritual guidance and brief but powerful passages: The Hidden Words, Baha'u'llah The journey of the soul (mystical work): The Seven Valleys, Baha'u'llah Bahai Apologetics (proofs of His Revelation and more, quite heavy but powerful)...
