Shared words: partakers of the heavenly gift

A cross-book record: 4 Nephi 1:3 already anchors 4ne-riches-all-things-common / 4ne-riches-goods-no-more-common, but not this phrase-link. Shared-phrasing on the exact string 'partakers of the heavenly gift.' Exactly TWO corpus verses -- Ether 12:8 and 4 Nephi 1:3. The two Moroni-adjacent editorial hands share it: Moroni wrote Ether 12; Mormon abridged 4 Nephi. In Ether 12:8 the gift is what the faith of men makes others 'partakers of' (the way Christ 'prepared'); in 4 Nephi 1:3 the wholly-converted society 'were all made free, and partakers of the heavenly gift.' Hebrews 6:4 ('tasted of the heavenly gift') has been a legal endpoint since the New-Testament freeze -- registered as heb-w1-06. Hosted on atonement.md -- the heavenly gift is the atonement's prepared provision.
