Passage
Romans 3

Personal trust in Christ; the word itself is unambiguous but carries different theological weight depending on the reader's Reformed (sola fide) or Catholic (faith plus cooperating works) formation.
ROM.3.22-28
-
Glossary Term
Faith
Personal trust in Christ.
ROM.3.22-28

Doctrine
Fulfillment of Prophecy
Linear historical fulfillment (Old Testament to New Testament); low risk across both traditions, though OT background may need reinforcement for less catechized readers.
ROM.3.21
-
Glossary Term
Gentiles
As with Polish 'poganie,' 'pogányok' literally means 'pagans,' carrying a stronger charge than the neutral English 'Gentiles'; use 'nemzetek' (nations) where the more neutral sense is intended.

Grace

All humanity equally guilty before God; retain unqualified universal language, affirmed identically across Hungarian Christian traditions.
