| Liberty |
|
| Freedom from constraint, the power to do as one pleases. |
| Bahá'u'lláh condemns the idea of absolute liberty for man. Freedom can only be exercised within the limits of the law, ultimately the law of God. ‘Liberty must, in the end, lead to sedition, whose flames none can quench . . . That which beseemeth man is submission unto such restraints as will protect him from his own ignorance and guard him against the harm of the mischief-maker. . . True liberty consisteth in man's submission unto My commandments . . . Were men to observe that which We have sent down unto them from the Heaven of Revelation, they would, of a certainty, attain unto perfect liberty.'4 |
| [BD 139] |
