Chapter 5: What is a Bahá’íMan must show forth fruits. A fruitless man, in the wordsof His Holiness the Spirit (i.e. Christ), is like a fruitless tree,and a fruitless tree is fit for fire.—BAHÁ’U’LLÁH, Words ofParadise.Herbert Spencer once remarked that by no political alchemyis it possible to get golden conduct out of leaden instincts, andit is equally true that by no political alchemy is it possible tomake a golden society out of leaden individuals. Bahá’u’lláh,like all previous Prophets, proclaimed this truth and taught thatin order to establish the Kingdom of God in the world, it mustfirst be established in the hearts of men. In examining the Bahá’íteachings, therefore, we shall commence with the instructionsof Bahá’u’lláh for individual conduct, and try to form a clearpicture of what it means to be a Bahá’í.
