Passage

Romans 4

• Doctrine

  Faith

  Personal trust in Christ; the object of faith must always be specified, distinct from generalized religious devotion (shraddha) directed at any of the region's actively worshipped deities.

  ROM.4.1-25

• Glossary Term

  Faith

  भरोसा (trust/confidence) is preferred over श्रद्धा because it more naturally takes a specific personal object in everyday Dogri usage.

  ROM.4.1-25

• Glossary Term

  Resurrection

  CRITICAL: a descriptive phrase ('coming back to life from among the dead') avoids पुनर्जन्म, the standard North Indian term for reincarnation.

  ROM.4.25

• Doctrine

  Resurrection of Christ

  CRITICAL: bodily, once-for-all resurrection, not पुनर्जन्म (reincarnation).
