    About this ebook

    Why a New Religion?
    The time has come to bring people together. There is a religion that can do this. It is the most powerful unifying force in the world today. It has gathered under its wings millions from every race, creed, and culture. Only once in a thousand years does a revelation of such stature dawn upon the planet. It is the religion promised in all the Holy Scriptures, the faith to unite all faiths, the light of hope and peace mankind has been waiting for since the dawn of history. It seems too good, but it is true. It is called “the Bahá’í Faith,” and its followers, “the Bahá’ís,” namely “those who follow the Light.”
    This book offers you the basic facts of the new Faith, and an opportunity to see for yourself the astonishing benefits it has in store for you and for the world.
    You hold...the key that will settle all of our difficulties... _George Washington Carver
    ...the greatest movement working today for universal peace... _Dr. Auguste Forel,, Eminent Swiss Scientist
    ...brings peace to the soul and hope to the heart. _Queen Marie of Rumania
    There is one thing stronger than the armies of the world. That is an idea whose time has come. _Victor Hugo

      All nations and kindreds...will become a single nation. Religious and sectarian antagonism, the hostility of races and peoples, and differences among nations, will be eliminated.{2} –Bahá’í Scriptures

      Ye are the fruits of one tree, and the leaves of one branch. Deal ye one with another with the utmost love and harmony, with friendliness and fellowship...So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth.

      A Seven-Piece

      Puzzle

      This book is the first part of a seven-volume series that are complementary to each other even as pieces of a single puzzle. To see the beautiful picture of human life and destiny—what God has planned for each of us here and hereafter—it is essential to study all seven volumes, preferably in the following order:

      1. Bahá’í Faith: God’s Greatest Gift to Humankind, 160 pages

      img2.png

      This volume describes briefly the teachings and history of the Bahá’í Faith. It displays the fruits of the Tree of Life.

      2. Bahá’u’lláh: The One Promised in All Scriptures, 235 pages

      img3.png

      This volume describes the life and Mission of the One who established the Bahá’í Faith. This is the root of the Tree of life, and the most significant volume in this series. Reading it is a must for every seeker of truth.

      3. The Greatest News: The News Everyone Should Hear, 166 pages

      This book is addressed primarily to Christians. It proves that Bahá’u’lláh—the Glory of God—fulfills the promise of the second coming of Christ.

      4. Death: The Door to Heaven, 182 pages

      img4.png

      This volume describes the mysteries of the afterlife as revealed by Bahá’u’lláh. It explains the meaning of hell and heaven and shows how we can attain our divine destiny, how we can prepare our soul for God’s many Mansions in heaven (John 14:2). Without gaining a glimpse of the afterlife, this life has no meaning.

      5. God’s 19 Great Little Tranquilizers, 62 pages

      img5.png

      We have been created to know and love God. This small book presents the "Knowledge of God." It sets forth what we need to know about our Creator to attain a state of utter joy and peace. It reveals the spiritual design of creation and presents 19 principles that lead us to a life of contentment and happiness.

      6. Bahá’í Prayers, 230 pages

      img6.png

      We are asked to recognize a tree by its fruits (Matthew 7:20). Prayers are the first fruits of religion—its heart and soul. They are the heavenly lights that guide us to the presence of God and manifest His glory and grandeur. The prayers offered in this book are a basketful of fruits from the Vineyard of Bahá’u’lláh—the Glory of God.

      img7.jpg

      The prime purpose of this series is to unveil our glorious destiny and to demonstrate how the teachings of Bahá’u’lláh can help us:

      img8.png To know God more truly

      img8.png To love Him more intimately

      img8.png To trust Him more genuinely, and

      img8.png To submit to His Will and His Wisdom more willingly

      Reading the preceding volumes in the recommended order will lead you toward the discovery of the greatest mysteries of human life and destiny. It will help you resolve these puzzling and profound questions: Who are we? Why are we here? Where are we going? And how can we fulfill our divine destiny—attain the very purpose for which we have come into this world? Are there, and will there ever be, any concerns and questions that are more urgent and of a greater consequence?

      The Promise of

      All Ages

      The desired of all nations shall come. –Haggai 2:7

      He Who is the Desired One is come in His transcendent majesty...Better is this for you than all ye possess.{4} _ Bahá’í Scriptures

      And I...am about to come and gather all nations and tongues, and they will come and see my glory. –Isaiah 66:18

      All nations and kindreds...will become a single nation. Religious and sectarian antagonism, the hostility of races and peoples, and differences among nations, will be eliminated.{5} –Bahá’í Scriptures

      The old order of things has passed away...I am making everything new. _Revelation 21:4-5 NIV

      Soon will the present day Order be rolled up, and a new one spread out in its stead.{6} –Bahá’í Scriptures

      The Light of Unity

      Ye are the fruits of one tree, and the leaves of one branch. Deal ye one with another with the utmost love and harmony, with friendliness and fellowship...So powerful is the light of unity that it can illuminate the whole earth. The One true God, He Who knoweth all things, Himself testifieth to the truth of these words.{7} –Bahá’í Scriptures
