Critical Risk Terms

Righteousness

Approved rendering: justiça
Doctrine: Salvation
Rejected alternatives: mérito conquistado por esforço moral próprio
Original: δικαιοσύνη
Category: Suffering

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. CRITICAL EXTENSION: 1 Peter 3:14 (‘sofrer por causa da justiça’) activates a distinct ethical-conduct sense of δικαιοσύνη — righteous living that provokes hostility — layered onto the same Portuguese word used for the forensic imputed-righteousness sense in Romans 3-5. Every occurrence in a suffering context requires an explicit semantic-range flag so translators trained on the Romans package do not default to the forensic gloss.

Salvation

Approved rendering: salvação
Doctrine: Salvation
Rejected alternatives: evolução espiritual através de reencarnações sucessivas
Original: σωτηρία
Category: Salvation

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. In 1 Peter, the eschatological deliverance ready to be revealed (1:5), the τέλος/outcome of faith (1:9), and the goal of spiritual growth (2:2). Never reframed as gradual evolution across reincarnations.

Resurrection

Approved rendering: ressurreição
Doctrine: Resurrection of Christ
Rejected alternatives: reencarnação
Original: ἀνάστασις
Category: Eschatology

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. NEVER reencarnação. Anchors the core passage: ‘mediante a ressurreição de Jesus Cristo dentre os mortos’ (1:3); recurs in the baptism-antitype passage (3:21).

Lord

Approved rendering: Senhor
Doctrine: Lordship of Christ
Rejected alternatives: Senhor apenas em sentido devocional, sem reivindicação de senhorio total
Original: κύριος
Category: Christology

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. In 1 Peter, forms the compound instruction ‘santificai a Cristo como Senhor’ (3:15), the letter’s own confessional peak, and is guarded against elder-domineering language (5:3) which must never share this title.

Messiah

Approved rendering: Messias
Doctrine: Messianic Promise
Rejected alternatives: um espírito superior ou mais evoluído (leitura espírita de Jesus como ‘o mais evoluído dos espíritos’)

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. 1 Peter primarily renders Χριστός as the proper title ‘Cristo’ (see new term christ) rather than deploying ‘Messias’ as a stand-alone title, but the underlying doctrine — the unique, eternally divine Anointed One, not Kardecism’s ‘most evolved spirit’ — governs both terms identically.

Jesus

Approved rendering: Jesus
Doctrine: Lordship of Christ
Original: Ἰησοῦς
Category: Christology

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. The risk is theological content around the name (see christ, lord, resurrection), not the name form itself.

God

Approved rendering: Deus
Doctrine: Deity of Christ
Original: θεός
Category: God

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. 1 Peter 1:3 opens with the doxological ‘Bendito o Deus e Pai de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo.’ Pastoral awareness note retained: Candomblé/Umbanda orixás syncretized with Catholic saints can blur exclusive monotheism if not addressed directly.

Holy Spirit

Approved rendering: Espírito Santo
Doctrine: Sanctification
Rejected alternatives: espíritos guias ou mentores espirituais (espiritismo), orixás e guias (Candomblé/Umbanda)
Original: πνεῦμα ἅγιον
Category: God

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. 1 Peter 1:2 (sanctifying work), 1:11-12 (inspiring the prophets), 4:14 (resting on the persecuted). Must be explicitly distinguished from Kardecist and Candomblé/Umbanda spirit-guide frameworks, as in the baseline.

Father

Approved rendering: Pai
Doctrine: Adoption into God’s Family
Original: πατήρ
Category: God

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. 1 Peter 1:2, 1:3, 1:17 (reverent fear of the Father who judges impartially).

Christ

Approved rendering: Cristo
Transliteration: Christos
Doctrine: Living Hope of the Resurrection
Rejected alternatives: o espírito mais evoluído (leitura cristológica espírita)
Original: Χριστός
Category: Christology

Used throughout 1 Peter as Jesus’ proper title (1:11, 1:19, 2:21, 3:18, 4:1, 4:13, 5:1), tying to the Messianic promise fulfilled exclusively in him. Must not be softened toward Kardecism’s Christology of Jesus as a supremely advanced spirit among others.

Sanctify Christ As Lord

Approved rendering: santificai a Cristo como Senhor
Transliteration: hagiasate kyrion ton Christon
Doctrine: Suffering for Righteousness’ Sake
Rejected alternatives: ato ritual externo sem entronização interior
Original: ἁγιάσατε κύριον τὸν Χριστόν
Category: Christology

Romans 1 Peter 3:15 — to set apart and revere Christ supremely as Lord within the heart amid suffering. Combines ‘santo’/‘santificação’ and ‘Senhor’; must convey inward enthronement, not a ritual act.

Christ Suffered For You

Approved rendering: Cristo sofreu por vós
Transliteration: Christos epathen hyper hymōn
Doctrine: Christ’s Substitutionary Suffering
Rejected alternatives: Cristo como mero exemplo moral de um espírito avançado
Original: Χριστὸς ἔπαθεν ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν
Category: Suffering

1 Peter 2:21. Must convey actual vicarious atonement, not merely Christ as a moral exemplar of endurance, a reading Kardecist Christology could otherwise readily absorb.

He Bore Our Sins

Approved rendering: levou os nossos pecados
Transliteration: anēnegken tas hamartias hēmōn
Doctrine: Christ’s Substitutionary Suffering
Rejected alternatives: ato de solidariedade genérica com o sofrimento humano
Original: ἀνήνεγκεν τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἡμῶν
Category: Suffering

1 Peter 2:24, echoing Isaiah 53. Substitutionary bearing of sin’s guilt and penalty; ties directly to ‘pecado’ and ‘justiça.‘

Redeemed

Approved rendering: resgatados / redimidos
Transliteration: lytroō
Doctrine: Christ’s Substitutionary Suffering
Rejected alternatives: libertação espiritual genérica e autodirigida
Original: λυτρόω
Category: Suffering

1 Peter 1:18-19. Ransomed by the price of Christ’s precious blood, not silver or gold; must retain the blood-price sense against a generic-liberation gloss.

Lamb Without Blemish

Approved rendering: cordeiro sem mácula e sem defeito
Transliteration: amnos amōmos kai aspilos
Doctrine: Christ’s Substitutionary Suffering
Rejected alternatives: símbolo de pureza moral sem sentido sacrificial substitutivo
Original: ἀμνὸς ἄμωμος καὶ ἄσπιλος
Category: Suffering

1 Peter 1:19. Passover/Isaiah 53 sacrificial-purity imagery; requires Old Testament sacrificial background teaching.

Sprinkling Of The Blood

Approved rendering: aspersão do sangue
Transliteration: rhantismos haimatos
Doctrine: Christ’s Substitutionary Suffering
Rejected alternatives: purificação ritual meramente simbólica
Original: ῥαντισμὸς αἵματος
Category: Suffering

1 Peter 1:2, echoing Exodus 24. Christ’s atoning blood applied to believers, ratifying the new covenant; must not be flattened to symbolic ritual purification.

Suffering For Righteousness Sake

Approved rendering: sofrer por causa da justiça
Transliteration: paschontes dia dikaiosynēn
Doctrine: Suffering for Righteousness’ Sake
Rejected alternatives: sofrimento como pagamento carmático de erros de vidas passadas, sofrimento purgatorial
Original: πάσχοντες διὰ δικαιοσύνην
Category: Suffering

1 Peter 3:14. Suffering resulting from righteous conduct provoking hostility; requires an explicit semantic-range note distinguishing this ethical-conduct sense from Romans’ forensic imputed righteousness.

Regeneration

Approved rendering: regeneração / regenerar
Transliteration: anagennaō
Doctrine: The New Birth (Regeneration)
Rejected alternatives: renascimento (termo cotidiano espírita para reencarnação)
Original: ἀναγεννάω
Category: Salvation

1 Peter 1:3, 1:23. God’s decisive, one-time act of birthing believers into new spiritual life. NEVER use ‘renascimento’ as primary gloss, since Kardecist Spiritism uses it as a standard synonym for reincarnation. Pair with explicit teaching that this is single, decisive, non-repeating.

Clothe Yourselves With Humility

Approved rendering: revesti-vos de humildade
Transliteration: tapeinophrosynēn enkombōsasthe
Doctrine: Elders and Humility
Rejected alternatives: modéstia genérica sem imagem de serviço ativo
Original: ταπεινοφροσύνην ἐγκομβώσασθε
Category: Leadership

1 Peter 5:5. Vivid slave’s-apron imagery; elevated to Critical given explicit curriculum doctrine emphasis. Must retain the active, visible, self-humbling service image.

Adversary The Devil

Approved rendering: adversário, o diabo
Transliteration: antidikos diabolos
Doctrine: The Reality and Defeat of the Devil
Rejected alternatives: espírito atrasado mas redimível (leitura espírita), Exu como figura ambígua a ser negociada (Umbanda/Candomblé)
Original: ἀντίδικος διάβολος
Category: Authority

1 Peter 5:8. A real, personal, malevolent spiritual being to be resisted, distinguished from Kardecism’s denial of a personal devil and from Umbanda/Candomblé’s ambiguous Exu.

Gospel Preached To The Dead

Approved rendering: o evangelho foi anunciado também aos mortos
Transliteration: euēngelisthē kai nekrois
Doctrine: Christ’s Proclamation to the Spirits
Rejected alternatives: segunda chance pós-morte compatível com reencarnação
Original: εὐηγγελίσθη καὶ νεκροῖς
Category: Angelology

1 Peter 4:6. Contested reference explaining why some who heard the gospel now face death’s judgment yet live by the Spirit; must not imply an ongoing post-mortem evangelistic opportunity compatible with reincarnation.

Once For All

Category: Angelology

1 Peter 3:19-20. THE SINGLE HIGHEST COLLISION RISK IN THIS LANGUAGE PACKAGE.

Doctrine: Christ’s Proclamation to the Spirits
Rejected alternatives: comunicação mediúmica contínua com os mortos

High Risk Terms

Approved rendering: evangelho
Doctrine: Gospel
Rejected alternatives: mensagem de evolução moral (Kardecist ethical-progress framing)
Original: εὐαγγελίζω / εὐαγγέλιον
Category: Salvation

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. In 1 Peter applies at 1:12, 1:25, 4:6, 4:17 — the gospel proclaimed by the apostles and anticipated by the prophets. Distinguish from Allan Kardec’s ‘O Evangelho Segundo o Espiritismo’ as in the baseline.

Grace

Approved rendering: graça
Doctrine: Grace
Rejected alternatives: mérito espiritual acumulado ao longo de vidas sucessivas
Original: χάρις
Category: Salvation

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. Recurs throughout 1 Peter (1:2, 1:10, 1:13, 3:7, 4:10, 5:5, 5:10, 5:12); the grace-versus-merit contrast documented in the baseline applies with equal force to 1 Peter’s ‘multiforme graça de Deus’ and ‘verdadeira graça de Deus.‘

Rejected alternatives: vocação (narrow sense of a call to priesthood or religious life)

Doctrine: Sanctification
Rejected alternatives: purificação cármica ao longo de reencarnações (leitura espírita)

Doctrine: Obedience of Faith
Rejected alternatives: cumprimento de preceitos religiosos, disciplina moral espírita de autoaperfeiçoamento

Inherited from Romans package; reused exactly. 1 Peter distributes this concept across ‘obediência’ (1:2, 1:22) and the compound ‘filhos obedientes’ (1:14, see new term children_of_obedience); obedience must flow from faith and hope, not legalism or Kardecist self-improvement discipline.
