Doctrine Analysis
This Language Package’s doctrine_risk_registry.json tracks 40 doctrines across Romans 1–16, each assigned a risk tier that drives Phase 2 review routing.
Risk tier summary
| Tier | Count | Review routing | Example doctrines |
|---|---|---|---|
| Critical | 7 | Human theologian, every occurrence | Salvation, Incarnation, Deity of Christ, Sonship of Christ, Resurrection of Christ, Lordship of Christ, Messianic Promise |
| High | 21 | Human theologian | Gospel, Divine Calling, Grace, Faith, Sanctification, Universal Scope of the Gospel, Unity of Jews and Gentiles |
| Medium | 9 | Native speaker review | Apostleship, Prayer and Intercession, Spiritual Gifts, Mission to the Nations, Evangelism, Church as God’s People |
| Low | 3 | Automated review only | Thanksgiving, Mutual Edification, Christian Fellowship |
Why Critical doctrines cluster where they do
All seven Critical-risk doctrines share one property distinctive to Odia: each has a false-friend that is unusually concrete and specific to the Jagannath cult at Puri, rather than a diffuse pan-Indian Hindu concept. Incarnation and resurrection face Nabakalebara’s literal ritual image-renewal; Lordship faces the direct naming collision with Jagannath’s own name and epithet (ଠାକୁର); salvation faces the specific ritual-offering economy of seba and bhoga rather than a purely abstract merit concept. This concreteness is precisely why Odia’s risk notes name specific rituals and vocabulary rather than relying on generic syncretism language (see Comparative Theology).
Review routing rationale
Critical and High risk doctrines (28 of 40) require mandatory human theologian review because an automated or native-speaker-only check could confirm the Odia is fluent without catching that it imports a contradictory theological framework specifically tied to Puri’s ritual practice. Native speaker review is sufficient for Medium-risk doctrines, where the concern is cultural fit and sensitivity (e.g. Jagannath devotion’s role in Odia cultural identity affecting evangelism tone) rather than doctrinal contradiction.
