The lack of harmony and love between the two brothers K is a reproach to the cause of God. Both are at fault. Both have a work to do in subduing self and cultivating the Christian graces. God is dishonored by the dissensions, and I do not go too far when I say hatred, that exist between these two natural brothers. Brother A K is greatly at fault. He has cherished feelings that have not been in accordance with the will of God. He knows the peculiarities of his brother, B K, that he has a fretful, unhappy temperament. Frequently he cannot see good when it lies directly in his path. He sees only evil and becomes discouraged very easily. Satan magnifies a molehill into a mountain before him. All things considered, Brother B K has in many things pursued a less censurable course than his brother, because it has been less injurious to the cause of present truth. {3T 59.3}

Manglen på harmoni og kærlighed mellem de to brødre K er en skamplet for Guds sag. Begge begår fejl. Begge har et arbejde at gøre med at undertrykke selvet og opelske kristne nådegaver. Gud er vanæret ved den splid og jeg går ikke for langt når jeg siger at had er mellem disse to biologiske brødre. Bror A K begår mange fejl. Han har gemt på følelser som ikke er i overensstemmelse med Guds vilje. Han kender sin bror, B Ks særheder, for at have et irritabelt og ulykkeligt temperament. Ofte kan han ikke se det gode når det ligger direkte på hans sti. Han ser kun ondt og mister modet meget let. Satan forstørrer et mulvarpeskud til et bjerg for ham. Alt overvejes, bror B K har i mange ting opført sig mindre kritisabelt end hans bror fordi det har været mindre skadeligt for sandhedens sag.
