Baha'i Faith

Q1. Dear Mr. Maitreya: Someone referred me to your web site which I found most interesting, reflecting the Teachings of the Baha'i Faith.
A1. No, the web site is not reflecting the teachings of the Baha'i Faith. The Baha'i faith is a part of our teachings, the Fifth Seal. Our teachings are also different in many aspects than the Bah's. You should become familiar with them and then you will see that this is the Most Perfect revelation ever!
Q2. I am most surprised, and pleased to see Baha'i listed as a true world religion on your website. But, how do you reconcile that Baha'i teaches that Bah'u'llh will be the last Messenger of God for at least 1000 yrs.?
A2. In the process of these Revelations coming to us, we came across a curious Revelation in The Revelation (the last chapter in the Bible) about The Bahai Faith (the Fifth Seal). In this verse God Reveals that this Fifth Seal is not perfect. After we became more familiar with the Bab/Bahai teachings, this Revelation makes more and more sense. First, it was Bab who claimed to be a Major Manifestation. Then He predicted that He Who Will Manifest shall come many years after Him. Indeed He predicted that He would come 1,500 to 2,000 years later. Then He chose Subhe-Azal as His predecessor. Since Subhe-Azal was ineffective, Bah'u'llh had to be chosen to correct some of Bb's teachings and bring Bab/Bah''s teachings to the West (which was necessary for us to become familiar with).
We also see that the Bab/Bahai Faith has been in trouble since the beginning, and it still is. There is so much wrong with the Faith that it cannot be the Last or the faith for the next 1,000 years. Their very idea that Revelations are Progressive and will continue forever is not scriptural. Scriptures, clearly, Reveal that Gods Revelations will end when the Seventh Angel comes (Rev. 10:7). Also in chapter five of The Revelation it is clear that when the Lamb opens the Book which is Sealed with the Seven Seals, all the universe will rejoice and the Mystery of God will finish.
With all these reasons (and many more) the proclamation of Bah'u'llh that he is the one for the next 1000 years is very much in doubt (indeed is incorrect).
We further encourage you to read our newly created Prophecy site, by a disciple. He has been a Baha'i before joining us. He has found why our claim is legitimate.
Q3. These are not "NEW" teachings. Bah'u'llh revealed these teachings over 150 years ago. Baha'u'llah's message is one of Unity of mankind. It appears that "Maitreya" is borrowing the teachings of the Baha'i Faith. If this is not so, please clarify.
A3. Our teaching is not borrowed from the Bah's because it does not say that all religions are, basically, the same, as Bah'u'llh teaches. Our teaching indeed says that all religions ARE NOT the same. It teaches that each religion brings a different Message to humanity and only when all of these different Messages are put together can the whole picture be seen.
Bah's teachings are based on Ishmaelis teachings, that assert that in each age a Prophet comes to clarify and advance human understanding and further the revelations from previous Prophets. This process, according to them, continues forever. We do not say that, we say that there have been Seven Major religions (Revelations) from God and when you put these Seven Revelations (Steps, Seals) together, the whole Plan of God is Revealed. There is not such a thing that the Prophetic Revelations will continue forever. With the Seventh Revelation, the Mystery of God will be Finished (Revelation 10:7). So what the Bah's say is not scriptural, but is a belief borrowed from the Ishmaelis. Our teachings are based on the Scriptures and are directly from God.
Bah's do not talk about the Seven Seals that the Bible teaches (the book of Revelation). Only the Begotten Son of God has the ability to open the Book Sealed with the Seven Seals (Revelation chapter 5). Bab and Bahai did not open the Seven Seals, they opened the Fifth Seal (Universalism).
There are more differences between our teachings and those of the Bah's that are not mentioned here. I mentioned only a few here, which are the most important ones. Again, Bah's teachings are not scriptural and are based on an Islamic Cult called Ishmaelis. Indeed God clearly says that it (Bab/Baha'i' teaching) is not perfect Revelation chapter 3, read THOTH). That is why they have been in trouble from the very beginning. It was not Bahai that fulfilled all the Prophecies about the coming of God's Last Revelation. All the earth did not hear Him when He spoke. All the earth did not see Him. It was not true that you did not have to go anywhere to hear Him, if they say He is in desert and/or He is the mountains, etc. do not go. All these are fulfilled through Maitreya and His Teachings.
So our teachings are not borrowed from the Bah's. Our Claim is based on the Scriptures. We have fulfilled the Prophecies that Baha'i could never have fulfilled.
