Digging For Truth

        NAD Working Policy L-60 section 10

                - Integrity of the Ministry -

 In any case where the integrity or the moral or professional standing of any holder of credentials is called into question, it is the duty of the union to join the local conference/ mission / field in conferring, with a purpose to clear away any uncertainty, in order that no reproach or shadow may be left to rest upon all the credentials held by the ministry. Where the matters involved are of such a character that the union and local conference/mission/field committees are unable to resolve the difficulty and announce to all a clear record for the ministry, the matter shall be referred to the division by action of both local and union committees together, or by action of one body separately, inasmuch as any uncertainty in the matter of what ministerial credentials stand for in one field casts a shadow on all credentials and is a matter of general denominational concern. When appropriate, the disciplinary measures set forth in L 60 20 and L 60 25 shall apply.
