In 1952, this division was brought about among TW-exclusives as a result of "a dominating brother, D.J. Christiance (sic) [who] misused the truth by gathering to himself so that he had to be dealt with", as per the pamphlet "The Various Divisions" printed in 1960 by Gospel Publications Bookroom, 15150 W. 13th Ave., Golden, Colorado, written by C.H. Brown and A.C. Brown, two well-known laboring brethren. It is currently unknown whether this division continues, but it was known to affect the TW assemblies in Des Moines, Iowa, as well as in New Jersey. The brother's name was Christiaanse.
