As The Mormon Eagle's motto is "It is better to represent ourselves than to be represented by others", I post the video of the remarks made by President Spencer W. Kimball at the 1974 Regional Representative Seminar. At the time, there were only the Presidency of the Seventy as General Authorities; all other Seventies were Stake Seventies, called by Stake Presidents. It was not until 1975 (the next year) when the First Quorum of the Seventy was reconstituted as a General Authority Quorum. Now, there are 8 Quorums of the Seventy, which number of Quorums can expand to any number the Lord wants. Contrast the statistics in this video with the Church today, and one stands in awe at the growth the Lord has caused to be throughout the world. Here it is:
"The pages of [this blog] will be mostly occupied with original matter elucidating the doctrines of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as revealed in both ancient and modern Revelations" (Orson Pratt, The Seer, volume 1, number 1, January 1853).
