D&C 56:2 · Matthew 16:24
This connection's citations are checked against the source text.
The mark sits beside every quote a connection carries. It reports one thing: those words were found in the frozen source text at the reference this page cites, allowing only typographic differences such as curly quotes, dash forms and spacing.
It is not a tier signal, and it is not a judgment about the connection. Where a card carries the Interpretive badge, the reading is still offered with its evidence for you to weigh — the mark speaks only to the citations.
The badges and the mark are separate signals: Textual and Interpretive name the kind of claim a connection makes, while the mark reports that the connection's citations were checked.
'take up his cross' stands at four frozen verses: this one, Matthew 16:24, Mark 8:34, and Luke 9:23, the last adding 'daily'. Divergences: the gospel states the requirement positively, as an invitation with a self-denial clause; the revelation states it negatively, adds the keeping of commandments as a third term, and attaches a consequence the gospel verse does not carry.
