PRACTICE-BASED READING
What actually comes off the press
Christ, grace, Word and the Cross are strongly printed; the gold plate is light in non-charismatic Lutheran practice.
The reading compares observable congregational life with the apostolic church in Acts. A stated doctrine alone does not raise an ink when the corresponding practice is not visible.Ink density against the reference
100% is the reference density. Below 100% the ink weakens; above 100% it begins to cover the others. This is more precise than an abstract 1–5 scale.

The colours show observed emphasis against the apostolic church in Acts — not a claim about anyone's salvation. Stated doctrine and lived practice may produce different readings.
