A Faith for Today

by Patrick Connolly in About the Baha'i Faith

Religion is renewed, He said, in every age to re-establish and apply the unchanging principles found in the scriptures of the Great Religions of the world to the needs of the present day.

Random Quote

The earth has one surface. God has not divided this surface by boundaries and barriers to separate races and peoples. Man has set up and established these imaginary lines, giving to each restricted area a name and the limitation of a native land or nationhood.

Therefore, it has been decreed by God in this day that these prejudices and differences shall be laid aside.
