The progress of the whole is dependent on the evolution of its parts, as it is with the parts, so it is with the whole. [1] The evolutionary growth of both parts and whole is guided by the same divine purpose towards ultimate unity and completion in Trinity association. [2]
The welfare of all planetary creatures of God's spirit indwelling, scattered throughout the universes, is purposeful, wise, and considerate of the best good for all from the lowest to the highest. [3] Every individual reaps the benefits and suffers the consequences of the actions of others in their group.

Selfhood, whether material, morontial, or spiritual, is a cosmic reality within the living cosmos - an integrated aggregation of real units subject to the destiny of the whole, where personal beings have the actual choice of destiny acceptance or rejection. [12]
The personality of each human being, while comparatively irrelevant to the eventual appearance of the Supreme Whole, represents an irreplaceable meaning-value in the finite, as the whole is dependent on the total acts of the manifold parts. [13]
The sum of parts in mathematics and material science may not always reflect the whole, as seen in the unforeseen creation of liquid water from gaseous hydrogen and oxygen atoms. [14]
