Shared words: grace for grace

'grace for grace' stands at exactly four distinct frozen verses in the corpus: these two, D&C 93:20, and Helaman 12:24. The gospel verse says the fulness is received by 'all we'; the revelation says of the Son that he received not of the fulness at the first and reached it by increments (D&C 93:13), a progression the gospel verse does not describe.
