Christ and Bahá'u'lláh
| |
1 |
A friend asked how the teachings of Bahá'u'lláh
contrasted with the teachings of Jesus Christ.
"The teachings are the same." declared `Abdu'l-Bahá;
"It is the same foundation and the same
temple. Truth is one, and without division. The
teachings of Jesus are in a concentrated form.
Men do not agree to this day as to the meaning of
many of His sayings. His teachings are as a flower
in the bud. Today, the bud is unfolding into a
flower! Bahá'u'lláh has expanded and fulfilled
the teachings, and has applied them in detail to
the whole world.

"There are no solitaries and no hermits among
the Bahá'ís. Man must work with his fellows.
Everyone should have some trade, or art or
profession, be he rich or poor, and with this he
must serve humanity. This service is acceptable
as the highest form of worship."
