THE SCRIPTURE COMPANION

Study the source. Examine the connection.

Read the passage in context, then distinguish the model’s use of it from what the text itself establishes.

AGENCY & OPPOSITION

2 Nephi 2:11–16, 26–29

In the passage: The chapter relates opposition, redemption through the Messiah, and the capacity to act.
Model connection: Context for Agency, meaningful alternatives, and the centrality of Christ in the journey.
Keep distinct: It does not provide the model’s Nine-Law taxonomy or identify every hardship as something a person chose.

GRACE & CREATED PURPOSE

In the passage: Paul describes salvation through grace and a life created for good works in Christ.
Model connection: Context for grace as a gift and for transformed participation expressed in action.
Keep distinct: It does not establish a mechanical sequence that purchases grace through performance.

TRUTH, LIGHT & BECOMING

In the passage: The passage connects truth, light, intelligence, agency, and God’s glory.
Model connection: A central theological context for Truth, reception, and continuing development.
Keep distinct: Its language does not supply a measured spiritual frequency or prove the imprint hypothesis.

CHRIST & THE HOLY GHOST

In the passage: Jesus describes His relation to the Father and promises the Comforter, who teaches and brings remembrance.
Model connection: Context for Christ’s centrality and the Holy Ghost’s personal role in guidance.
Keep distinct: The model’s axis and resonance vocabulary are interpretations, not additional words in the passage.

CHARITY & TRANSFORMATION

In the passage: The passage describes Charity and invites prayer for this love through following Christ.
Model connection: Context for service, governing allegiance, and transformation that reaches outward.
Keep distinct: The intensity of suffering or the size of a sacrifice alone does not establish Charity.

IDENTITY & DIVINE PURPOSE

In the passage: Moses is addressed in a personal relation to God, and the text identifies God’s work in human immortality and eternal life.
Model connection: Context for continuing personhood, the Creator, and the horizon of becoming.
Keep distinct: It does not demonstrate the model’s diagrams, numbered systems, or collective threshold.

MINISTRY BEYOND MORTALITY

In the passage: The vision describes ministry among the dead and the conditions of reception, repentance, and redemption.
Model connection: Context for postmortal participation and the distinction between provision and reception.
Keep distinct: It does not establish a specific physical mechanism of transpersonal imprint or identical personal readiness.
