God bless you Osita. Abdu’l-Bahá, Whom Bahá’u'lláh appointed as the unerring Interpreter of His Word, said:

Every soul who believed in Jesus Christ became revivified and resuscitated through this spirit, attained to the zenith of eternal glory, realized the life everlasting, experienced the second birth and rose to the acme of good fortune. (Abdu’l-Baha, Baha’i World Faith - Abdu’l-Baha Section, p. 258)]

He also made it clear that Christ’s Sovereignty and Influence our eternal:

…In reality, Christ was glorified with an eternal sovereignty and everlasting dominion — spiritual and not temporal. His throne and Kingdom were established in human hearts, where He reigns with power and authority without end… (Abdu’l-Baha, The Promulgation of Universal Peace, p. 292)

…Then know that for the dominion of the reality of Christ there is no beginning and there is no end. Everlastingly that luminous Entity hath been sitting on the throne of might and everlastingly It will have a penetrating dominion over the worlds of existence… (Abdu’l-Baha, Tablets of Abdu’l-Baha v3, p. 659)

See how many conquering kings there have been, how many statesmen and princes, powerful organizers, all of whom have disappeared, whereas the breezes of Christ are still blowing; His light is still shining; His melody is still resounding; His standard is still waving; His armies are still fighting; His heavenly voice is still sweetly melodious; His clouds are still showering gems; His lightning is still flashing; His reflection is still clear and brilliant; His splendor is still radiating and luminous; and it is the same with those souls who are under His protection and are shining with His light. (Abdu’l-Baha, Some Answered Questions, p. 152)

I believe that essentially what the Bahá’í Faith promulgates and teaches is in harmony with true Christianity, the spirit and truth of Which It seeks to renew in humanity:

The essence of Bahá’u'lláh’s Teaching is all-embracing love, for love includeth every excellence of humankind. It causeth every soul to go forward. It bestoweth on each one, for a heritage, immortal life… (Abdu’l-Baha, Selections from the Writings of Abdu’l-Baha, p. 66)
