Do they believe that all religions come from God? How would that work?

I am a Baha'i so I do believe that all religions come from the same God ("This is the changeless Faith of God, eternal in the past, eternal in the future."). In terms of tolerance, all religions are tolerant and predict the coming of future Messengers of God. It is the followers of certain religions that have tended to be less tolerant and accepting.

They believe for every period of time (I'm not sure how long this period lasts), there is a Manifestation of God on earth as our teacher. "Manifestation of God" doesn't mean Baha'is believe their prophets are God incarnate, but that the prophets are infinitely above us, and likewise, God is infinitely above those prophets. Yes, Baha'is believe all religions come from God. They believe this because they believe in one God, and one humanity, so they believe, therefore, there must be one religion from God. This is the oneness of religion. Baha'is are typically amongst the most tolerant faiths, among Jews, Buddhists, and Hindus.

I think so.
The Baha'i Faith is the youngest of the world’s independent monotheistic religions. Founded in Iran in 1844, it now has more than 5 million adherents in 236 countries and territories. Baha'is come from nearly every national, ethnic and religious background, making the Baha'i Faith the second-most widespread religion in the world.
Baha'is view all the world's major religions as a part of a single, progressive process through which God reveals His will to humanity. The Founder of the Baha'i Faith, Baha'u'llah (1817-1892), is recognized as the most recent in a line of Divine Messengers that stretches back beyond recorded time and includes Abraham, Moses, Buddha, Zoroaster, Christ and Muhammad. The central theme of Baha'u'llah's message is that humanity is one single race and that the day has come for humanity’s unification into one global society. While reaffirming the core ethical principles common to all religions, Baha'u'llah also revealed new laws and teachings to lay the foundations of a global civilization. “A new life,” Baha'u'llah declares, “is, in this age, stirring within all the peoples of the earth.”
The worldwide Baha'i community, composed of people from virtually every racial, ethnic and religious background, is working to give practical expression to Baha'u'llah’s vision of world unity. We invite you to learn more about the Baha'i Faith and benefit from the spirtual and practical insights found in the Revelation of Baha'u'llah, God's message for humanity in this day.

Yes I think it is very tolerant.
A progressive revelation of truth from God. His messengers reveal what is true and relevant for the time, hence more then one religion from God.

Probably. They are tolerant, warm, generous people.
The Bahai headquarters may be able to direct you to a fireside, near where you live, if that is what you want.

It's one of many false religions that deny the revelation that God gave us that says only Jesus saves.

Most tolerant is the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. We Pastafarians welcome everybody to share our noodles.

Please everybody. Understand that the religion means nothing.
It's the individual that determines whether one is for real or not.
