The friends should, of course, ignore any materials produced
by Covenant-breakers which they may receive unsolicited by email or happen on
while exploring the World Wide Web. With regard to your concerns over the
content of the message, you are advised to turn to your Local Spiritual Assembly
or an Auxiliary Board member for assistance in dealing with the spurious claims
advanced in that message.
The best countermeasure to Covenant-breaker initiatives and
the greatest protection for the Cause is for the believers to acquire a deeper appreciation
of the station and purpose of Bahá'u'lláh and to become well-grounded in His
Covenant.
