The
Bahá'í view of
God is essentially
monotheistic. God is the
imperishable, uncreated being who is the source of all existence.
[1] He is described as "a personal
God, unknowable, inaccessible, the source of all Revelation, eternal,
omniscient,
omnipresent and
almighty".
[2][3] Though transcendent and
inaccessible directly, his image is reflected in his creation. The purpose of
creation is for the created to have the capacity to know and love its creator.
[4] God communicates his will and
purpose to humanity through intermediaries, known as
Manifestations of God,
who are the prophets and messengers that have founded religions from
prehistoric times up to the present day.
