BICENTENARY CELEBRATION OF THE 200th BIRTHDAY OF THE BAB AT RIO VISTA IN PEORIA

Image
  The Bab ("bahb") was the forerunner to the Baha'i Faith. He was born in Iran in 1819. He proclaimed His mission in 1844 and was martyred in 1850.   The Báb’s mission  was to prepare humanity for the coming of an age of transformation beyond anything the generation that heard Him would be able to understand. Their duty was to purify their hearts so that they could recognize the One for Whom the whole world was waiting and serve the establishment of  the Kingdom of God .  He announced the imminent advent of   “Him  whom God shall make manifest,” who would fulfill the prophecies of past religions and usher in a new global era of peace and unity. And that of course was Baha'u'llah. Peoria celebrated the 200th birthday of the Bab (which means 'the Gate')  at Rio Vista Recreational Center in Peoria, AZ on Sunday, October 27, 2019.

SHRINE OF BAHA'U'LLAH NEAR AKKA, ISRAEL

  "I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also and they will heed my voice. So there shall be one flock and one shepherd." John 10:16 Baha'u'llah's mission is to unite the religions, mankind,  and the world.

SHRINE OF THE BAB, BAHA'I FAITH, MT. CARMEL, HAIFA, ISRAEL

Image
  " And the Glory of the Lord came into the house by way of the Gate whose prospect is toward the east." Ezekiel 43:4.    "Bab"  is Persian for "Gate". The Bab and Baha'u'llah were both from Persia, "east" of Jerusalem. " The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom; it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy. The glory of Lebanon will be given to it; the splendor of CARMEL and Sharon; they will see the GLORY OF THE LORD, the splendor of our God." Isaiah 35:1-2  " Baha'u'llah " means " The glory of the Lord"  in Persian.)
