I loved this presentation, you are a legend John. God bless you ❤️

❤

Hi John it’s Arnold here. I found this teaching extremely informative. I cannot wait to get my hands on the book! This is right up my alley. Great job, explained very succinctly and clearly. Love you brother.

So when BuzzLightyear says, "To infinity and beyond," he's being illogical!

The "Custodians" destroyed the Baha'i Faith when they failed to recognize Charles Mason Remey as Second Guardian of the Baha'i Faith. If you read the Will and Testament you will understand the Hands had no right to take any of the actions they took. They obliterated the International Baha'i Council, created in 1951 by Shoghi Effendi, which is the 'embryonic Universal House of Justice'. Charles Mason Remey was named President of the International Baha'i Council. The Head of the Universal House of Justice is the Guardian. The International Baha'i Council with Charles Mason Remey as President is the successor to Shoghi Effendi. Charles Mason Remy was the Beloved Second Guardian. The Covenant was broken. The Greater Covenant is the promise for a Manifestation to come at various intervals to interpret the Logos to humanity. The Lesser Covenant is that there will always be a Guardian to Interpret the Sacred Writings for humanity. Please study, pray, investigate, and think for yourself!!! God Bless You!!

So the arc symbolizes, as always, the Covenant of God.

So happy to hear this announcement! I'm looking forward to your future classes on the life and poetry of Tahirih. Thank you.

Dear John, your lectures are GOLD. Thank you so much for helping me understand a little about the vast topic of Christianity.

Friend, please remove the ads. It is not fitting to try and monetize this and an ad every five minutes destroys the dignity of the talk

To this enlightening lecture, if it was not part of the earlier ones, I'd like to add that we need urgently to become aware of the great work being done around the world by the military alliance that has united to rid the earth of the forces of darkness that are directly responsible for the majority of human suffering for eons. It does not contradict any of our Scriptures, but illuminates the process by which the Lesser Peace is gaining momentum. Likewise, we should inform ourselves of the many ways these dark forces are wreaking havoc in order to protect ourselves and humanity, as we are called to do. Blindness or wishful neglect would be unforgivable when so many lives are being lost or endangered and the information is readily available if we know where to look for it. We are in an information war. Information about the faith is critical, as is information about the defense of our basic rights. We are part of the citizenry, and as such our duties are twofold. «The world is undoubtedly facing a great crisis and the social economic and political conditions are becoming daily more complex. Should the friends desire to take the lead in reforming the world, they should start by educating themselves and understand what the troubles and problems really are which baffle the mind of man...» - Shoghi Effendi «Shoghi Effendi was the keenest observer of political events and kept abreast of all happenings. His intelligence and analytical faculties did not permit him to lull himself into any false complacency, induced by the rather childish idea people sometimes have of what "faith" means. He well knew that to have faith in God does not mean one should not use one's mind, appraise dangers, anticipate moves, make the right decisions during a crisis.» - Ruhiyyih-khanum

Thank you very much for that presentation Mr. Hatcher. I had the privilege to know Bill as a young bahá'í back in the 90's in Quebec City. I was always impressed by his very high eloquence in french, and his profound insight. I had the opportunity to participate to many study gatherings and fire sides, and even to have personal advice from Bill. He definitely is still an inspiration in my life and my service to the Cause. I remember particularly that last gathering with young bahá'ís when I just got back from Venezuela, in 2004 if i recall precisely.

I still remember the excitement and inspiration I felt when I heard Bill present a Baha’i talk in a class room at the University of South Florida in 1967. Thank you for this wonderful tribute to your accomplished brother.

Baha'i Faith continues to ignore important scientific discoveries that relate to religion. In 1898 the images on the Turin Shroud were found to have the characteristics of photographic negatives. In 1978 this same cloth was investigated by scientists using four tons of analytical instumentation. In 1988 radiocarbon studies found that the Shroud contains elevated levels of carbon fourteen, and the only feasibly explanation for that anomaly is that the Shroud was subjected to a first century neutron radiation event. The Baha'i physicists and theologians ought to stop ignoring the truly amazing discoveries that science has made in regards to religion in the 20th and 21st centuries.

Both you and your Dear Brother are remarkable Men! I wish had known him but have downloaded his last book on MINIMALISM A Bridge between Classical Philosophy and the Baha'i Revelation and the Bahai Faith as i know it will inspire me!

A lovely and remarkable tribute. Thank you for sharing so much about your lives, this adds depth when studying your works.

I was present at one of his talks in Green Lake, Wisconsin. It was about science and religion and he answered a question that I asked him ❤️🙏

I had no idea you all lived in Greensboro. And from 1935! So the Faith came along later. I'll catch up. I see there are a lot of Hatchers - even many William Hatchers - of bygone ages there. lol

Having the bounty to be associated with the Bahá’í Community of Ottawa during the three years of 1979 to 1981, both Bill Hatcher and Hussien Danesh held firesides at their homes. There was also a Campus Bahá’í club at the Univ. of Ottawa that had a number of very interesting individuals, including his daughter, Sherron, - though her studies in medicine kept her away from most meetings. It was also where we were able to visit the newly established office of the Association of Bahá’í Studies. Fascinating times and very memorable as I finally declared there as a Bahá’í.

May God bless his soul. Thank you for sharing, this was a great class.

Can’t wait for this one!!! ❤

I enjoy these presentations and talks so very very much and I'm deeply grateful for the skillful effort that Dr. Hatcher has generously put in the making of these lessons

Doesn't the concept of "progressive Revelation" imply that Infinity is not revealed, yet? Perhaps this is the reason that science can not point its finger on the infinity.

❤😂❤ Often in the "Valley of the shadow of death"! Always wondered about VALLEYS and the valleys in my life!! I did give my 41st thumbs-up to this 41 st Class...NSYNC! ❤ ALLAH'U'ABHA 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thanks for what you are doing. The question I have is in regard to the idea of Infallibility. All the manifestations have been men, the UHJ members are all men. Does that have any bearing to the fact that men are different than women on this earthly plane due to the Y chromosome, which I as father in the family is geared toward Justice as opposed the nature of women who are more Compassionate toward her children and why the House is called the Universal House of Justice and not the Universal house of Compassion. It does not necessarily imply that women are not equal than men, but they are just the left wing of a bird of equal strength as the right one.

Wonderful class John...thanks for posting. See you next Sunday. Peace, Jim

Thank you Dr Hatcher, these classes are so wonderful I will listen many times and make notes. God bless you and keep you healthy.

*Promosm*

Thank you Dr Hatcher. I’ll be listening a few times. 🙏

Thank you Dr Hatcher!

Thank you Dr Hatcher.

Thank you! May The Almighty God bless your dedicated services dear friends! Allah'u'Abha from Mongolia 🇲🇳

Dear Mr Hatcher I love so much your explanation and I hope you remember me and my Husband Colin and my parents when we were in our pioneering post in Quebec 1976 Fereshteh and Colin Bartlett ❤️🙏thank you so much

Why is it forbidden to elect women to the Universal House of Justice? Not allowing women as part of the house that runs the bahai religion does not feel like equality - this feels like subjugation….

Thank you for these classes. Your classes gave me a deeper understanding of much I thought I already knew.

Inspiring talk! May The Pen of Glory bless you for your dedicated service!

I love you God and thanks for sending Baháʼu'lláh💖💗❤

Wow

I thought that Shogi Effendi died in 1957.

I will love to get a copy

I have recently been reading parts of the Gospel of Thomas, Judas and Mary Magdelene… they all seem to align more with the explanations of salvation that both make more sense, and are in line with Baha’i concepts and Islamic ones…

Yes I love the explanation of Liberty!!!

Is it possible to send the link to the slides again ? Doesn’t seem to work .. so helpful

CHRIST HAS ALREADY RETURNED AND HIS NEW NAME IS BAHA'U'LLAH. HIS FAITH IS CALLED THE BAHAI FAITH. REVELATION 3:12..."MY NEW NAME".

The idea that there is no empty space is quite well aligned with Quantum field theory.

With the infinity of Pi, I think we just keep going round in circles…

I like the idea that the human has been potential since before time. As is said in a tablet in Gleanings that the purpose of every existent thing is that humanity come into existence. An idea that Peter Khan mentions quite a bit is the concept that spirit is attracted to a physical entity when the entity reaches a stage of it’s composition. We could say then that the human spirit is evident only when the physical composition of a human is reached during the process of evolution. In the Tablet of Wisdom Baha’u’llah He states that “Nature is Gods Will…” I find it fascinating that a Biologist such as Richard Dawkins releases a book entitled ‘The selfish Gene’ but fails to see that by giving a gene the capacity to express such a complex emotion as selfishness surely indicates that there is a motive force impelling the process of evolution…

Niceee! Can’t wait for the next one! Is there any way I can ask a question John? I made contact by email a few months back but not sure if you received it or if you’re just too busy for individual correspondence. Thank you for your time!

Great! I thought that even in prayer, we are praying to God through the necessary intermediary of the Manifestation, it can’t be a direct connection per se…that typically the Persian speakers and indeed Abdu’l-Baha began prayers with ‘Ha’v’Allah’ (spelling unknown), ‘He is God’ and I believe Nader Saeidi mentioned that Abdu’l-Baha was asked about this and he said that this was a reference to Baha’u’llah (or the Manifestation) as a reminder that He is the intermediary, the link between the phenomenal world and the Unknowable Essence?

Excellent ❤
