Wave 3 Sensitive Design Lock
Theological and pastoral guardrails before building
"Prove all things; hold fast that which is good."
1 Thessalonians 5:21 KJV
Design Lock Status
This page does not activate new simulators. It defines the theology, safety, and pastoral boundaries required before Wave 3 Part 2 is built. All five simulators (023, 025, 026, 028, 029) remain planned only.
Why This Design Lock Matters
The remaining five Wave 3 simulators involve church hurt, spiritual discouragement, guilt and shame, relationship insecurity, and spiritual dryness. They require careful wording so Born Again 360™ does not:
- Harm wounded people.
- Excuse sin or control.
- Pressure unsafe reconciliation.
- Confuse conviction with condemnation.
- Minimize real abuse or danger.
This design lock captures exact theological guardrails, safety boundaries, and forbidden teaching traps for each simulator before Phase 1V begins building. Church leaders, mentors, and reviewers can evaluate these boundaries now and approve them before code is written.
