Congregations having from three hundred to six hundred communicant members on the rolls shall be represented by two elders; those with six hundred to nine hundred communicant members by three elders; those with nine hundred to twelve hundred communicant members by four elders, and larger congregations in the same ratio thereafter.
3. Any two ministers, and at least one elder belonging to the presbytery, being met at the time and place appointed, shall be a quorum competent to proceed to business.
4. The presbytery has power to receive and issue all complaints, and other matters, that are brought before it from church sessions in a regular manner, to examine and licence candidates for the holy ministry, to ordain install, remove, and judge ministers; to examine the records of church sessions; to resolve questions of doctrine or discipline seriously and reasonably proposed; to condemn opinions which injure the purity or peace of the Church; to unite or divide congregations, at the request of the people, but not without their consent, or to form or receive new congregations, and, in general, to order whatever pertains to the spiritual welfare of the churches under its care, always respecting the liberties guaranteed to individual congregations and persons under the Constitution.
