The members thereof
[1]
must take counsel together
in such wise that no occasion for ill-feeling or discord may
arise. This can be attained when every member expresseth
with absolute freedom his own opinion and setteth forth
his argument. Should anyone oppose, he must on no
account feel hurt for not until matters are fully discussed can
the right way be revealed. The shining spark of truth
cometh forth only after the clash of differing opinions. If
after discussion, a decision be carried unanimously well and
good; but if, the Lord forbid, differences of opinion should
arise, a majority of voices must prevail.
