It's obvious from
STTIL that the elders in Anaheim and the victims at LSM wanted to keep the matter "in house" and not go to the law. The principles in I Cor. 6, I Tim 5, etc. were apparently on their minds. They really thought that WL would provide "justice," thinking that judgement "begins in the house of God."
Obviously no one at LSM at that time could be considered a "wise" man. (I Cor 6.5)
Paul instructed Timothy concerning church leaders (I Tim 5.21), "
I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and Christ Jesus and the chosen angels to observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing out of favoritism."
Consider how sober and serious Paul's instruction to Timothy is here. He calls on God and Christ Jesus and the chosen angels to witness:
Timothy must serve without prejudice and without partiality.
This is exactly the opposite of what WL did!
During that entire time,
WL treated Ingalls and others with prejudice and
treated his boy Philip with partiality.
Did not God and Christ and the chosen angels witness that?
