[Robert]

"We ask you to share this letter with those saints in the church who might benefit from it. Our sincere desire is that the Lord would use these words to preserve the uninformed, recover the wounded and deceived, and establish those who are troubled and wavering. We know that some saints may be troubled by this fellowship due to rumors they have heard. Please know that all of you are in our hearts (2 Cor. 3:2; 7:3). We also ask you, as leading ones in His recovery, to read together A Word of Love to the Co-workers, Elders, Lovers, and Seekers of the Lord, paying special attention to the last three chapters."
First of all, I do not see any benefit from reading that letter. I assume, that they meant: "share with those, who follow us and will not discuss but agree wiht clapping hands".
For the next, surely I know almost nothing about that case.
But is it not strange, that local problem with some families could affect many churches, whole Body? How?
So what was the reason to spread this letter among churches in all States?
I see only desire to have power and control over local churches ( in real meaning).
Paul and James wrote letters to believers as brothers, telling how to conduct , behave among saints. Correcting, encouraging but not as people who have mental control.
