Volition
All that which ye potentially possess can, however, be manifested only as a result of your own volition. Your own acts testify to this truth . . .
- Bahá’u’lláh, Gleanings from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, sec. LXXVII, p. 149
Quote of the Day
Fidal 14 Ilm 182 B.E.
If an Assembly becomes aware that a Bahá’í is mistreating another person, it has a responsibility to use its collective will to counsel that individual about his or her actions. If its counsels are not accepted, the Assembly should not hesitate to implement stronger measures, such as the recommendation that administrative sanctions be placed on the believer.
