25 BAHÁ'ÍS--NEW (Qualifications of a New Believer)
"When a person becomes a Bahá'í, he gives up the past only
in the sense that he is a part of this new and living Faith of God,
and must seek to pattern himself, in act and thought, along the
lines laid down by Bahá'u'lláh. The fact that he is by origin
a Jew or a Christian, a black man or a white man, is not important
any more, but, as you say, lends color and charm to the
Bahá'í community in that it demonstrates unity in diversity."
