My answer is in regards to members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints who often bear testimony of the truthfulness of the church.
The truth belongs to all individuals regardless of their faith. It is not a boastful, or prideful position in which members of the church proclaim the Church as the only true and living church on the face of the earth. We love all people, not just members of our faith. Every denomination thinks they are the true church. If not, they would not attend. The position of the Mormon church is a little different than most faiths. To better understand why people in the church say that, it is important to understand that there is a difference between any church, and the gospel of Jesus Christ.
The gospel of Jesus Christ is eternal. It was around before the world was created. God's plan for his children is for their happiness and to bring to pass the eternal life of man. Due do sin and error, man is unclean and unworthy to be in the presence of God. This was not a surprise to God. He knows all things, and new that we would need a savior to take upon Himself the sins of the repentant.
This is the gospel of Jesus Christ. It was taught to Adam after he left the garden of Eden. It was taught throughout the Old Testament. All things were an example of and a preparation for the life and ministry of Jesus Christ.
A church is established to help mankind understand the Gospel of Jesus Christ and have authority in enacting it's ordinances and principles, and to give strength to the members.
Christ was born on earth, and established His church with apostles and prophets. His church encapsulated all the truths of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The church was not the gospel, but helped the apostles understand the gospel.
After the Savior was crucified, the apostles brought the teaching of the church throughout the area. Although they were able to convert many, they still were persecuted, and eventually martyred. The church eventually became popular to the government and changes were adopted into the doctrine to serve the needs of rulers and kings. Although many of the true principals of the gospel of Jesus Christ were still contained in the church, other teachings were changed so that it no longer represented the fullness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Many individuals recognized the incorrect doctrines being taught and therefore splintered off from the original church to start a new faith. Individuals like Martin Luther, and John Wycliffe are some examples. Can you take something that is not true and change a few things to make it true?
Mormons believe that Jesus Christ Himself, returned to the earth to restore His church so that it contained the fullness of His gospel. It was not just a reformation or appendage to the church that was around at that time. It was a complete restoration.
If that event didn't happen, you are right. It is a boastful. But if it was true the Jesus Christ literally came to earth again and set in motion the restoration of His church, don't you think it would be true?
Mormons feel their church is a true and living church because they believe it is still being lead by a prophet who receives guidance and direction for God. Their teachings answer many missing principals that have been missing since Christ first established his church.
Members of the church recognize the truth that is taught in many religions and only adds to that which is already understood. Children are taught in faith and humility to love God, Jesus Christ, and their neighbors regardless of their beliefs.
Students and children can help the elderly by volunteering at senior centers, assisting with household tasks or grocery shopping, spending time chatting or playing games with them, and helping them with technology or devices. Simple gestures like showing kindness, respect, and offering companionship can make a big difference in the lives of the elderly.
Emos, like all individuals, have varied preferences for social interaction. Some emos may enjoy spending time alone to reflect on their thoughts and emotions, while others may seek out the company of friends to connect and share experiences. It ultimately depends on the individual and their personal preferences.
Parents can develop a good understanding of their children by spending quality time with them, actively listening to their thoughts and feelings, and being open to communication. It's important to show empathy, validate their emotions, and try to see things from their perspective. Building a strong relationship based on trust and respect will also help parents better understand their children's needs and behaviors.
Happiness is enjoying the simple things in life, like a sunny day or a good cup of coffee. The smile on her face showed that she was filled with happiness. Spending time with loved ones brings a sense of joy and happiness that is truly irreplaceable.
Multimedia can have both positive and negative impacts on youth. It can enhance learning, creativity, and communication skills, but it can also lead to issues like distraction, desensitization to violence, and a sedentary lifestyle. Monitoring and guiding youth's use of multimedia is important to ensure a balanced and healthy experience.
