Lord
Established Synodal and liturgical term. In Romans 10:9 the confession ‘Jesus is Lord’ = Иисус есть Господь. Risk is registerial: Господь is heavily associated with formal liturgical address, which can make the confession sound like a recited creed line rather than a personal, decisive confession of allegiance; surrounding text should restore the personal force.
