Covenant-breaking and forgiveness
From Bahai9
God's Mercy Exceeds His Justice[edit]
"...we believe that God's Mercy exceeds His Justice, and that through the repentance of a soul, the prayers and supplications of other souls, and the goodness of God, even a person who has passed away in great spiritual darkness can be forgiven, educated spiritually in the next world and progress.
"Owing to ...'s deliberate choice in leaving the Guardian to join the Covenant-breakers, and in his continuous association with them, it is evident he certainly has a spiritual disease."
- (From a letter written on behalf of the Guardian to an individual believer, February 7, 1947, in Lights of Guidance, no. 615)
