Okay, what about the idea that we should all love each other, give to the poor, show mercy and compassion? Is that part of the plan?
This is the message of Christ, I am not sure what you are implying.

On the contrary, the Second Coming of Jesus Christ is a major part of Baha'i teaching. But how have you shown that Jesus will return in the future? In order to convince me of that you would first have to disprove Baha'u'llah -- because Baha'u'llah says that Jesus has already returned.
Over 80% of all prophecy in the bible has came true with 100% accuracy, that will not change now the storie will simply come to its conclusion.
The events foretold have not come to pass, so this is not possible.
revelations chapter 7
. And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
2. And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
3. Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
4. And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
5. Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.
6. Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand.
7. Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.
8. Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.
9. After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
10. And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. 11. And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,
12. Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.
13. And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?
14. And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.
16. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.
17. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
Revelation 22:18-19 he says, "I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book."
It sounds like Bala'i'allah has left out prophecy, the bible has never been wrong yet. Please oh please drop you wall and take another look, I beg of you look in your heart and ask yourself why are you here. Please Jesus does not want to lose you! He died specifically for you my friend, he is crying out to you now. " let he who hath ears to hear, let him hear!"
When Jesus comes for his second coming he will come to riegn on Earth for 1000 years, he will be known, He will be king, he will be god. Those that are not saved and have not accepted that he died for them and was ressurected will be damned to suffer for eternity.
We all want peace but there will not be peace on Earth until Jesus returns please I want to see YOU there rejoicing with God.
