    No point is being made by you
    Did you really not get the point that I made which is that many people since the 18th century have claimed to be Jesus and each is delusional?
    in each case a clear true Messiah and Return of Christ which brought millions of people towards a loving posture stands out.
    Do you get the point?
    I get the point OK. You believe that Baháʼu'lláh is the true Messiah and return of Christ based on millions that believe what Baháʼu'lláh taught.

    The sacrifice of Jesus: Bahá'u'lláh declared that the sacrifice of Jesus was indeed extraordinary, for it was through that sacrifice that Jesus “purified the world.”
    Bahá'u'lláh says that those who failed to accept Christ deprived themselves of “beholding the face of God.”

    Was Baháʼu'lláh anything like Jesus that Baháʼu'lláh himself described here?
    Did Baháʼu'lláh subject himself to a sacrifice that purified the world?
    Did he allow himself to be sacrificed on our behalf, and if so how?
    Sorry, I don't see how Baháʼu'lláh can be equated to Jesus but I'm happy to be convinced that he can be.

    Millions have been taken in by all sorts of things and ideas and so...
    Jesus warned of imposters - people are easily taken in by nice stories.

    Do you have examples of people whose really bad ideas have been embraced by millions? If not let me know and I shall supply examples.
    Many other "religions" have also been spawned in the 19th century and have millions of followers with extraordinary teachings.
    The point here is that extraordinary teachings and acceptance by millions are not evidence that Baháʼu'lláh is/was Jesus. Again, I'm happy to be convinced otherwise.
