Test-Seal-Faithfulness Doctrine
The doctrine that all certainty of any good requires a test that seals the receiver’s faithfulness: Adam’s test failure forfeited the confirmation of his kingship and all its goods for every generation; Jesus underwent the same test in His Humanity, removing its burden from DW children and reserving for them the single test of never enlivening their own will; and “the decision will carry the accomplished act” — the one resolved choice to live in the DW constitutes the seal without further probation, giving the soul the right to receive all goods God had established to give.
