Equation 1
$$\hat{G} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}$$Equation 2
$$\hat{G}^2 = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}\begin{pmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix} = \hat{G}$$Equation 3

Objections & Defense
Objection
Sanctification is progressive
"Christians grow in holiness over time. Isn't that repeated grace?" Response: Sanctification is growth in coherence WITHIN the +1 sign state, not repeated sign-flips.
Objection
People can lose and regain salvation
"Apostasy and reconversion involve multiple grace applications." Response: Theophysics distinguishes: (1) Sign-flip (Ĝ): −1 → +1, idempotent. (2) Decoupling from grace: state can decohere toward −1…
Objection
Different graces for different needs
"There's prevenient grace, saving grace, sanctifying grace... These seem like multiple applications." Response: These are different CHANNELS or MODES of grace, not repeated applications of the same Ĝ.
Collapse Analysis
Collapse Radius: None
If P9.1 fails: - Salvation becomes incremental/quantitative - Spiritual achievement replaces faith - "More grace" becomes a category - The simplicity of the Gospel is lost - Works creep back in as "grace-earning" - P9.2 (Voluntary Coupling Preserved) loses foundation - The entire grace operator algebra becomes inconsistent P9.1 is the mathematical expression of Reformation sola fide: one faith, one salvation, complete.
