1. “We are God's messengers, and He has sent us forth to work for both the white and the black race without partiality and without hypocrisy. ... The plan of redemption embraces every soul that God has created. The walls of sectarianism and caste and race will fall down when the true missionary spirit enters the hearts of men. ... Both the Ethiopian and the white race are God's purchased possession, and our work is to improve every talent that has been lent to us of God, to save the souls of both white and black.” (

2. “Nor were those who should receive a training, to be limited in their missionary endeavors by racial or national barriers. ...

The field is the world, and the light of truth is to go to all the dark places of the earth in a much shorter time than many think possible.” (
LS 337.3)
3. “Whatever may be the nationality or color, whatever may be the social condition, the missionary for God will look upon all men as the purchase of the blood of Christ, and will understand that there is no caste with God.

SWk 31.1)
