Thank you for this great article. I wanted to make a clarification though. Item #7 under Step #2 states that when someone is not worthy and leaves the system, "the participant is given back the money and property he consecrated and is required to leave the system" (D&C 51:8-10). This isn't accurate, and the verses cited don't actually say that though. The preceding verses (v.5-6), however, clarify that this is in fact not true. Instead, if someone were to leave, "he shall not have power to claim that portion which he has consecrated" but instead "shall only have claim on that portion that is deeded unto him." This makes sense, because to do otherwise would be a logistical nightmare of reshuffling resources from those who may have already received that property.
