The brethren who have moved to the city, agree to work with the congregation in every way possible and to allow each one's personal conviction to be the determining factor as to how far he can go in cooperating with the classes for Bible study. As several years pass, their love for each other is deepened through sharing in times of joy and sorrow, prosperity and adversity, health and sickness, and pain and death. Their children have married and they are bound together by ties of affection. The congregation grows so large it is deemed best to plant another. The brethren who have opposed the grouping of students ask permission to form a new congregation in which they can conduct a teaching program more in conformity with their views.
Consent is given and all labor together in planting the new unit.
They continue to meet together once per week for mutual study of the word, they exchange physical labor upon the two meetinghouses, and also exchange talent for the purpose of edification. They recognize that because brethren meet in two different places and hold some varying views does not justify disfellowship, and frequent association will mean a closer unity as they come nearer to the ideal of Christ. There is just one answer. For you are still of the flesh. Christians are to be extraordinary men.
