Jehovah's Witnesses are far and away the most aggressive when it comes to teaching yet the Baha'i Faith has a higher growth rate?
Can you explain why that might be?
Good point, GT. But I think it may be more that the whole package makes a lot of sense. Take prophecies as an example. Though there is much more, for now I will only point out that the 2520 years that Jehovah's Witnesses point to? If one accepts the historians and the archaeologist's dates as being accurate, then we have at least the beginnings of proof of the Baha'i Faith having a divine origin. (continued below)
2520 Babylonian years from 605 BCE gives us 1844, the year the Baha'i Faith started. But Moses also gave a prophecy regarding "seven times". (Leviticus chapter 26) Here is the kicker. 2520 Jewish years from when King Manasseh was taken to Assyria in captivity also is 1844. Daniel's 2300 year prophecy? In 457 BCE Ezra left the gates of Babylon to return and rebuild. That (70 weeks of years prophecy) gives the time of Yeshua/Jesus, but there is more.
The 70 weeks prophecy is only a part of the 2300 years prophecy, so both began at the same time. Era left Babylon on the first day of Nisan in 457 BCE and the first day of Nisan 2300 years later was March 21, 1844. The Baha'i Faith began two months and two days later. As I said, there is much more. but that is enough for now....

It is very difficult to find any reliable statistics on the growth rate of the Baha'i Faith - even from their own official web site. All I know is that there has been a rapid increase in membership since the 1960's.
From what little I know about the Baha'i Faith, I suspect their peaceable approach and goals to embrace people of all faiths and walks of life has great appeal.
