Truthfulness and Honesty
Baha'u'llah says in the Tablet of Tarazat: - (58:5)

Verily it [trustworthiness] is the door of security for all that dwell on earth and a token of glory on the part of the All- Merciful. He who partaketh thereof hath indeed partaken of the treasures of wealth and prosperity. Trustworthiness is the greatest portal leading unto the tranquillity and security of the people. In truth the stability of every affair hath depended and doth depend upon it. All the domains of power, of grandeur and of wealth are illumined by its light... (58:6)

O people of Baha! Trustworthiness is in truth the best of vestures for your temples and the most glorious crown for your heads. Take ye fast hold of it at the behest of Him Who is the Ordainer, the All- Informed (58:7)

Again He says: - "The principle of faith is to lessen words and to increase deeds. He whose words exceed his acts, know verily, that his nonbeing is better than his being, his death better than his life." (58:8)
