From Lights of Guidance[edit]

(Should be further subcategorized or possibly moved to another category)

Covenant-Breakers, Defined[edit]

"People who have withdrawn from the Cause because they no longer feel that they can support its Teachings and Institutions sincerely, are not Covenant-breakers--they are non-Bahá'ís and should just be treated as such. Only those who ally themselves actively with known enemies of the Faith who are Covenant-breakers, and who attack the Faith in the same spirit as these people, can be considered, themselves, to be Covenant-breakers. As you know, up to the present time, no one has been permitted to pronounce anybody a Covenant-breaker but the Guardian himself."

(From a letter written on behalf of the Guardian to the National Spiritual Assembly of Canada, March 30, 1957, in Lights of Guidance, no. 601)

Notes[edit]

  • Now only the Universal House of Justice can declare Covenant-breakers
