ROM.14.17
-

Glossary Term
Lord
CRITICAL: মপু ইবুংগো ('Lord/Master,' an existing respectful Meitei title) is preferred over ঠাকুর, which carries strong devotional association with Krishna specifically in Manipuri Vaishnava practice (as venerated through Ras Lila devotion); using ঠাকুর risks framing Christ as one more object of bhakti devotion within the existing Vaishnava system rather than exclusive, supreme Lord.

Doctrine
Lordship of Christ
CRITICAL: exclusive, supreme Lordship.
