Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 100: September 15, 1938 HE members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints reverently believe in the Divinity of Christ and that through Him only can the world be saved from sin. We believe that He died to redeem mankind and that because of Him we may confidently expect a future life through the resurrection. In the mission of Jesus, we have an instance of a divine being assuming the form of a man and actually passing through the natural stages of birth, childhood, manhood and death. In this, He subjected Himself to the physical limitation of humanity - He became weary; He was an hungered; He needed sleep; He suffered physical pain. And He did this as He. So often said, in order to manifest the Father to whomsoever the Father might designate. And for what purpose? And this is life eternal, that they might know thee, the only true God and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. There are not many who are original in their thoughts or actions; not many are discoverers or inventors. The vast majority are imitators. In order to advance, one must have in mind and wish to reach an ideal beyond his present condi tion. Take the case of a child. He hears his mother speak; he tries to speak. He sees other people walk; he tries to walk. When he becomes older he sees things other people possess and naturally longsto possess them. The child soon looks up to his parents and comes to consider them the embodiment of goodness and wisdom. To every child born into the world, father and mother are the first and best representatives of the purpose which is in the heart of God. Whom the child loves he wishes to resemble. If he admires and loves his parents he will copy after them and they will become his ideal and to a great extent shape his destiny; as he grows and develops in years he is slowly and gradually raised towards the level of his ideal. But soon he begins to observe other people and the time comes when the parents' influence over him is not so complete and he begins to admire others and slowly but surely to copy after them.
