Doctrine Analysis

This curriculum’s doctrine registry tracks 40 doctrines drawn from Romans 1-16, each recorded in full in doctrine_risk_registry.json with its risk tier, key terms, primary passages, and review routing.

Risk distribution

• Critical (7): Apostleship, Messianic Promise, Incarnation, Deity of Christ, Sonship of Christ, Salvation, and Prayer and Intercession. All seven require human theologian review for every occurrence, because each uses vocabulary that is also a specifically named, and often contradictory, Islamic doctrine.
• High (17): doctrines including Gospel, Grace, Faith, Resurrection of Christ, and Universal Human Accountability, where mistranslation creates serious theological confusion even if it doesn’t collide with a named competing doctrine.
• Medium (13): doctrines like Divine Calling, Sanctification, Providence, and Church as God’s People, where a native speaker review is sufficient because the risk is reduced clarity rather than direct doctrinal contradiction.
• Low (3): Thanksgiving, Mutual Edification, and Christian Fellowship, cleared for automated review.

Why Sonship of Christ and Incarnation outrank every other doctrine here

Unlike this Language Package’s other languages, where the highest-risk doctrines collide with an available but avoidable folk-religious concept, these two doctrines collide with an explicit, textually stated Islamic denial: the Quran states directly that God does not beget and was not begotten, and Islamic theology’s tanzih doctrine holds God’s transcendence makes physical incarnation inconceivable. This is why these two doctrines, alongside Deity of Christ, require the single most careful theologian review in this registry.

Why several Critical-risk terms are correct words needing notes, not wrong words needing replacement

Apostleship, Messianic Promise, and Prayer and Intercession are Critical not because Indonesian lacks a good word, but because the correct, established word (Rasul, Mesias, doa syafaat) is also the exact name of a specific, different Islamic doctrine. Review routing for these doctrines checks for the presence of a required contextual framing note, not for the absence of a forbidden word — a distinct verification task from the rest of this registry.

Review routing summary

24 of 40 doctrines (all Critical and High) route to mandatory human theologian review; 13 Medium-risk doctrines route to native speaker review; 3 Low-risk doctrines are cleared for automated review only. See doctrine_risk_registry.json’s risk_summary block for the exact counts.
