Apostle Thanks State of Kuwait for Formally Recognizing the Church

- In February - and for the first time in more than 40 years - the State of Kuwait gave official recognition to a religious organization. That organization is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
This week Elder Quentin L. Cook of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and his wife, Mary, met government leaders and Latter-day Saints in Kuwait City to express gratitude on behalf of the First Presidency for the important milestone.
“We are incredibly grateful for your absolutely key role in granting recognition to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,” Elder Cook said Monday during a meeting with Mr. Fareed Emadi, secretary general of the Supreme Commission for the Promotion of Moderation in the Ministry of Awqaf. “This is a great occasion for us and we’re just very pleased. We appreciate the friendship and we want to respond. We are going to be very good citizens, good neighbors, good friends. … We feel comfortable being with people of different faiths but who have accountability to God.”

I love how the church spreads goodness and joy throughout all the world!
Thank you for your comment!
When I was young, Spencer Kimball said the whole world will hear the gospel.
I couldn't see how that could happen.
I was a child and couldn't see beyond my world.
Now,because of these gifts to the world...
I have never been so humbled and thankful for the Lord opening my eyes and my heart.
I pray that many will listen and accept the Lord's love😔
I fought in the Gulf War and my final objective was Al Jahre with the rest of my tank battalion. I remember very clearly the smell and smoke that was from the burning oil wells and destroyed Iraqi tanks in and around Kuwait City. I never thought that I would see the gospel in Kuwait. It takes me breath away to see this video.
30. Know that when you are born, all family and relatives’ blessings and curses from Adam down hang above you. But when you reach the age of consciousness, not the sorcerers but your first actions determine your choice. And the solution is to return first to God through his prophet according to 2 Chronicles 20:20. Seek Salvation first. And Salvation is only through the living prophet of your time. Not an angel, not a book called Bible or Quran. Not a prophet called Moses, Jesus of Nazareth or Mahomet. But the words of a living man amongst you. And you, whatever difficulties and sufferings that you are going through, first, know that the person to blame for all this is yourself. And in search for a solution, you shall not go to just any prophet and not just anyone should lay his hands on you. You shall never trade your Salvation for an ephemeral relief from Satan in a Catholic, Protestant, evangelical or Branhamist church. In Genesis 50, Joseph asked that his bones should go up from Egypt with Prophet Moses. And you, if you are a chosen one, you must not die before you accept Kacou Philippe, the living prophet of your time.
A major milestone!
The gospel is going forth, like a roaring lion!
And uniting nations! For the good of all.
Moving mountains, is what the Lord dose every day! With the help of all his children.

Contact 360 be Not deceived
Contact 360 the gospel is not going forth in Kuwait. You will end up in prison or worse if you share or discuss the gospel with any Muslim. Missionary work is prohibited.
Very promising. I was born in Kuwait, lived there for 13 yrs, & we also had an Armenian church & school 😊
Wow! This is such an amazing news of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints! The Lord is indeed hastening the work of salvation throughout the world preparatory for His glorious Second Coming which both ancient and modern day Prophets have spoken and prophesied! Indeed, the Savior is coming really SOON as our Muslim brothers and sisters are starting to embrace the gospel in Arab countries. Greetings from Norway!
Well said😊.
Greetings from Utah.
I'm in this video!! this process was truly a heavenly miracle
My sister just arrived to Kuwait to help relieve the military group from SLC! I'm bummed she missed this visit, but I'm SO glad that she is where an apostle of the Lord visited SO recently ❤️
The will of God for your salvation is not what your family or everyone else does around you, but it is what the living prophet of your time tells you. You were born alone and be aware that one day, you will die alone and also, you will go to judgment before God alone. #PKPCHANNELTV
Micracles this one is and grateful that they have recognized the church. Truly a blessing from God!
It's heartwarming to see that even with all the war in the middle east there is progress for peace and religious freedom.
Yes who would of guessed this would happen Curtis,
Picturing that the middle east is a evil place is kinda hard for me as a middle eastern
@@najdalotaibi5104 Though difficult it may be, from everything I've ever seen it seems like quite the dangerous place. I never called the region evil; at no point would I assume there are not many good people and safe places.
Oh this is so powerful. My eyes are watering because of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ in this arid country. It will become an oasis for the spirit of the Lord.
tyndale25 You do understand that missionary work is not allowed. The members of the Church are not allowed to teach or discuss the gospel with any muslim.
@@BenMcrea61 Yes of course, but progress is becoming visible as we continue to work hand in hand with the good people there. It is all in the Lords hands. Ex 14:14

It is a step, and a magisterial one! 💛🙏🏽
it is nice that we join with our Muslim brothers to worship God.
Amazing simply amazing how the Lord opens doors for the church. What a miracle.
Mark Vehar The Lord hasn’t really opened any doors - what he has done is to get the Church the same official government recognition that seven other Churches have had for years - the Catholics, the Evangelical Church, Greek Orthodox and Anglicans etc all have legal status. It just means the ward can now publish its meeting times and location and place a sign outside.
No missionaries allowed,
No proselytising.
No discussing the gospel with any Muslim.
Meetings take place on Fridays the Islamic holy day
Members under great pressure to drink tea and coffee. It’s a grave social offence to turn down a cup when offered.
@@BenMcrea61 really? I've been in countries with TONS of social pressure to drink the local beverage (which of course is not healthy or against my principles) and I have never received a mean look or comment AFTER I kindly explain what my belief is and why I can't accept such offer. And believe me when I say some where quite important business men.
Yafet Palomeque yes really

46. In 1993, I saw the paradise of God and his prophets covered with a white cloud but the paradises of the religions and holy books do not exist anywhere. And Salvation can never be obtained through debates or discussions or through the practice of an old religion of one’s parents but Salvation is to recognize the living prophet of your time and it is this prophet who will tell you what you must do to be saved, just as before you, people like you received prophets in their time and were saved. After reading or listening to me, you have two choices before you: either you die in Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity or Judaism and go to hell, or you follow the living prophet of your time to go to heaven and I am this prophet, I that speak to you.
Love it! The church is true and going forward!
I'm so happy when I watch this video because I am Mormon and I just married a Muslim man in Algeria we are great examples of how god is spreading love through Mormons and Muslims there are actually alot of similarities between the two religions both are very awesome with awesome families and both of share something our love of being kind and loving one another
الله يهديك ان شاء الله 🙏🙏
Mormons believe that families can be together forever only if they are sealed in the temple. I'm curious. How are you dealing this in your own family?

We are great examples for all the world to see and I've also seen Mormons in Dubai getting together with Muslim friends and families sharing our beliefs and religion and all of us come down to the same thing we both love god our families are very important and loving one another and being kind to our neighbors I love you all I'm excited we will continue to do good works inchalah
This is a miracle!! Pres. Nelson asked us to "pray that all God's children will receive the blessings of the gospel." This is an answer to prayer!! Can you imagine a temple there in years to come!?! 🙏💙🙏💙🙏
Yes especially in a middle eastern country! I hope Kuwait will grant us the right to preach to our Muslim brothers and sisters.

There will never be a temple in an Islamic country as long as they have a say. They despise Christian's and Jews. They think our bible is corrupted and we are mislead while their leader muhammed slept with his favorite wife Aisha when she was 9. 4 years before her first period. This religion is not welcoming to change or honest criticism. Or else their people would leave in droves. Leaving islam is punishable by death in many countries
@@magaelectrician657 well that didn't age well...
Never doubt the lord!
Never doubt the lord!
He's embarrassed me with my shortcomings as well.
Your not alone, but now...
Don't doubt the Lord.
@@cjjenson8212 what didn't age well?
Hallelujah!
Thank you.
I know that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints true. I am grateful for having the gospel of Jesus Christ in my life💕. I am so happy!!!
May I ask why are you a mormon ? What makes mormonism special out of 4200 religions ?
@@mohammad38580 The Book of Mormon. It's teachings are the word of God.
@@mohammad38580 you know what it was for me it wasnt the religion it was the people their just positive all the time they make u feel apart of a family they have activities that make u wanna go back and hang out with them

So happy you found the Gospel
Thank you Kuwait. May Allah/Jahwe/God and all prophets and holy men reward your goodness.
If you think that Allah and Jahveh to be the same being then your belief is false because Mormon doctrine states that Jahveh was the premortal Jesus Christ and muslims don't believe Jesus to be God. If you are just trying to be respectful by mentioning Allah, the muslim god and Jahveh, the christian god as if they are two different gods then that's false too.
Fair Opinyon there is only one God...God has many names. Allah, Dios, YHWH, are a few...
Church Newsroom & the State of Kuwait, good job. Together we are strong.
This is so exciting!
This is a beautiful video!
Recognition by the nation of Kuwait brought such joy to my heart! How wonderful for the Saints who worship there! And, how wonderful for those who will later serve or live there! I thank Heavenly Father through our Savior Jesus Christ for the opportunities and rights granted to Saints who dwell within that land!
THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER DAY SAINTS IS GROWING AND THIS COMES WITH A RECOGNIZABLE ACT OF RESPECT. THIS IS A BLESSING TO THE PEOPLE IN KUWAIT.
I am so proud of our Church and grateful to our Heavenly Father for the blessing.
Matthew 28: 16-20 His work continues to go forth. Such an inspiring video of joy!
Wow this is simply amazing
I like to watch the LDSvvideos on u-tube because I know and feel it is the truth
I know that the church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints is true church and the Book of mormon is true, I'm happy for being member of the true church!
I'm so blessed that I am part of Kuwait ward ❤❤❤
While Kuwait still places restrictions on you spreading the gospel, God and your 16 million strong family will support you!
I read that there are about 70 active members of the ward. Is this accurate?
Wow! There's an entire ward in Kuwait! It's it mostly composed of US soldiers?
Blessed with fake history? Rock in hat? Secret wives, Creating a fake bank and lying about it to his "beloved" wife? Angels with swords? Wow, wake up.
Deb Delves Do you believe in the Bible? Do you class yourself as a Christian?
UAE, Oman, and Qatar are next hopefully!
J Tanner Next for what? There are far more church members in UAE than in Kuwait. Missionary work is still not permitted in either of those countries.
J Tanner The UAE Government has always allowed individuals to worship according to the dictates of their conscience - unlike Kuwait. This just permits the Church to build meetinghouses and place signs outside. Missionary work and missionaries are still prohibited - in both UAE and Kuwait. The UAE Government classes all members of the Church as Muslims.
Manama branch in Bahrain is always full and we enjoy being there
I love the gospel!!!

Its an amazing breakthrough that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is recognized and is moving forward and also seeing the hand of the Lord in bringing to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.
Big break through!
Inspiring and hopeful!
Wonderful news.
May God bring all Muslims to the light of Jesus Christ, what great news!
Silarias though not yet. Unfortunately they still have that stupid rule. Where Muslims who leave the faith are to be punished with death. 🤐🤐😧😧
CLOWN TROLL "With God nothing is impossible". It is only the work of men that can be frustrated but not God.
We believe jesus too
Silarias The members are not allowed to do missionary work or discuss the gospel with any muslim person.
@@BenMcrea61 Not actually true. I met with a Muslim on my mission.
Wow! this is amazing :') I hope this happen soon here in Dubai as well :')
Wow, wow, wow!!!
I was in the Kuwait and saw all the destruction of that city along with the death on the Highway of Death as well as many other places. I also saw the sun completely blocked out at 1:00 P.M in the afternoon because of the oil fire smoke, and it was still 110 degrees, and I have to say that it gave me a image of what hell might be like. To see that city rebuilt and see the sun upon it and hear this news, God has truly blessed the saints there as well as all the people of Kuwait. Camp Freedom now has a wonderful name.
Do we see, do we realize what is happening? The great gathering is moving with great speed.
Yay!
ESTA SI ES UNA DE LAS GRANDES SEÑALES DE LOS ULTIMOS DIAS
EN 1991...1993...1999...2003
NO PENSARIA QUE LLEGARIA PRONTO EL DIA EN QUE SUCEDIEEA ESTO...
EN VERDAS DIOS ESTA APRESURANDO SU OBRA...
ENVIENME A LA MISION A KUWAIT.... IRE SIN REPARAR IGUAL QUE IRIA A CUALQUIER OTRO LUGAR!!!
So Cool!!!!
A miracle
we must read Daniel 2:44 is a prophecy, the gospel looking forward
How wonderful.
Wonderful news
So awesome!
so happy

"Kuwait, my country, may you be safe and glorious!
May you always enjoy good fortune!
You are the cradle of my ancestors,
Who put down its memory.
With everlasting symmetry, showing all eternity,
Those Arabs were heavenly,
Kuwait, my country,
May you be safe and glorious!
May you always enjoy good fortune.
Blessed be my Country a homeland for harmony,
Warded by true sentry giving their soils aptly,
Building high its history, Kuwait,
My country, we're for you my Country,
Led by faith and loyalty,
With its Amir equally,
Fencing us all fairly, with warm love and verity,
Kuwait, my country,
May you be safe and glorious.
May you always enjoy good fortune!"

💗💗💗🙏🙏
Amazing.
Wow amazing.
What an amazing blessing and witness of the hand of the Lord! I am so happy for all our brothers and sisters in Kuwait! I know God lives and loves all of his children. I add my witness to Alma's from The Book of Mormon, "And now what evidence have ye that there is no God, or that Christ cometh not? I say unto you that ye have none, save it be your word only.
But, behold, I have all things as a testimony that these things are true... all things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator." (Alma 30:40-44)

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏😁😁👍🏼
Just amazing 🙏🏽
Cool
✌ in the middle east
It's a sign of near second coming of Jesus Christ
An amazing step forward. All we have to do now is support the changes in the Muslim communities. That would allow conversions without fear of retaliation!
3:54 Hi Yanie!
Can we carry the bible there?
In the military we just listed them as "prayer manuals ".
@@dianebrady6784 Does this change how and where Bibles may be possessed &/or used? Are there other works that are likewise classified (& if so, what are they)? In which military are they so classified & how widely are they recognized as prayer manuals?
You can own a bible but would be advised to keep it away from public view unless you want to be arrested.
My wife just did a byu intern on muslem faith then one day while waiting in line for groceries talked to the person behind her found out that she was from here she heard about the church and joined with her family the community found out lined her family up in front of her and executed them in front of her she was in Amarica to get medical treatment part of this but her medical vesa fell through and now without care due to finance was being sent back an undisclosed church heard about her story agreed to help put her on stage to present a check to help her then the church found out where she was from and instead if helping shamed her my wife gave her all the cash she had asked her mom to do the same then told her that since she was lds that the local bishop would probably help havent heard how shes doing since
Why did so many people in the audiences look, and sound, as though they were Filipino?
Because they ARE Filipino. Duh.🙄
Love how the military dudes at 2:07 are underdressed, as per usual.
Underdressed?
Nikolas Shamo yeah like in a t shirt at church
Flappy Dunker Probably because they don’t actually have any other clothing to wear. They’re on military service!
Ben McCrea I know. I’m one of them. I wasn’t complaining, I was playfully pointing it out. Secondly, being in the service isn’t a solid reason to not have church clothes. There’s shopping malls in Kuwait and these guys get plenty of time off.

Apostles ??? No way ! They do not have the marks of Apostles !

Bring on that oil money tithing.
Greg Bisesi - disgruntled ex-lds alert.
Samoa Moni
Lol no not LDS, but live under Mormon Shiria law in the Mormon holy land of Utah.
I see how they scam people out of their money. Money and power, that’s what it’s all about. And just to make it abundantly fair, all other other religions aren’t much better.
I lived under the Southern Baptist’s growing up in Florida until they got watered down and didn’t carry much weight with less members. I’m sure us Gentiles will water down the The Mo’s and we can return the government to ALL the people.
Greg Bisesi, “to make it abundantly fair”?
I’ll tell you how to be fair. Show me proof the church is running a scam, then you’re being fair. You make claims, back ‘em up with evidence.
Samoa Moni President Thomas S Monson was taken to court in London on charges of being a con man and conning people out of money. The judge ruled that you cannot prove or disprove the claims of the church and that is why President Monson escaped prosecution. So I would suggest you cannot prove anything either on matters of faith. This person living in SLC does not believe the claims of the Church and so of course believes that people who pay tithes are being scammed out of their money.
Ben McCrea, yet, he cannot prove his claims. Period.
Tax the church
So many filipino saints in kuait by the look of it! God bless all the saints in their in all races and forms and groups, for we are all God's children. And lastly God bless the Leaders on both sides for them making this possible to happen! Truly the Lord works in many mighty miracles.
