  ROM.16.3-16

• Glossary Term

  Church

  kawtal ('gathering/assembly,' from kawt-, 'to gather') is a native-rooted term for the church as gathered people, deliberately avoiding any Arabic-Islamic-institution vocabulary.

  ROM.16.1-16

• Doctrine

  Church as God's People

  kawtal should be understood as the whole people of God, not narrowed to a single congregation; confirm regional currency with native speakers given the limited established base of Fulfulde church vocabulary.

  ROM.16.1-16

• Glossary Term

  Fellowship

  A descriptive term for shared community/mutual relationship; confirm regional naturalness with native speakers given limited established Christian devotional vocabulary.

• Doctrine

  Obedience of Faith

  Obedience that flows from faith, not a separate meritorious rule-obedience; risk of readers defaulting to a submission-to-Sharia framework given the prominence of Islamic legal-religious observance in the region.

  Obedience Of Faith

  Romans 1:5 and 16:26.
