Primary & Secondary Capital — the two layers of what you carry

Spiritual capital comes in two layers. Primary is the 8 deposits given at salvation (Eph 1:3-14, Rom 5:17, Heb 6:5). Secondary is the 6 categories accumulated through faithful stewardship. Read together they make the case airtight: missing fruit is an architecture problem, not a deposit problem.

Most believers feel poor. The Bible says they are rich. Both can be true at once because there are two layers of spiritual capital — and most discipleship has only ever named one of them.

Once you can see both layers clearly, the diagnosis of The Capital Conversion Gap™ becomes inescapable: the deposit is abundant; the conversion architecture is what's missing.
