Shared words: with full purpose of heart

The phrase 'with full purpose of heart' occurs at six verses in the corpus: 2 Nephi 31:13, Jacob 6:5 ('come with full purpose of heart, and cleave unto God'), Mosiah 7:33; and 3 Nephi 10:6, 12:24, 18:32, the risen Lord's own invitations. Each sets the phrase inside a conditional turning toward God; 2 Nephi 31:13 chosen as far end for the matching if-clause shape. Limhi alone attaches the promise to temporal deliverance from bondage, guarded by 'according to his own will and pleasure'. Third occurrence carried here.
