Howard W. Hunter
"The gospel of Jesus Christ, which gospel we teach and the ordinances of which we perform, is a global faith with an all-embracing message. It is neither confined nor partial nor subject to history or fashion. Its essence is universally and eternally true. Its message is for all the world, restored in these latter days to meet the fundamental needs of every nation, kindred, tongue, and people on the earth. It has been established again as it was in the beginning---to build brotherhood, to preserve truth, and to save souls" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Howard W. Hunter, p. 123).
