The controlling DDF anchors for this manual are:
- Claims T0--T5, 1--6, and 2A--2C: the Triune ground, one created reality, the Axiom of Purpose, the personal Logos, created mediation, corruptible truth-channels, claim discipline, providence, and miracle;
- Claims 7--8B: dignity, embodiment, the unified human receiver, and the formation of created agency;
- Claims 9--12B: sin, evil, hostile powers, differentiated suffering, grace, Christ, Scripture, apostolic tradition, and doctrinal refinement;
- Claims 13--15A: the Church's Christ-given identity, necessary and corruptible office, baptism and Eucharist, resurrection, new creation, and public witness;
- Claims 16--25A: science, typed causation, emergence, mathematics, biology, evolution, death, life, consciousness, AI, information, and language within one created order;
- Claims 26--38: formed agency, CRM, clinical and spiritual discernment, trauma, abuse, false ideas, institutions, ecology, beauty, comparative religion, hiddenness, and animal suffering;
- Claims 39--53: final judgment, truth-ordered love, the limits of moral sentiment, and DDF's public-domain applications;
- Claims 54--66: the canonical architecture from Torah through apocalyptic witness, the Holy Spirit, and the whole-person heart;
- source-contact, claim-register, warrant, scope, boundary, and revision rules; and
- DDF's final integration of truth, mercy, judgment, protection, anti-communion, Church, and eschatological hope.
Where a local team wants to make a Systems Theology claim DDF does not cover, it must use the DDF coverage-request process. A prudential local decision may still be made within lawful ecclesial authority, but it must not be presented as a new canonical DDF conclusion.
