    Description

    I am looking for volunteers to help translate books into Urdu for the use of churches in Pakistan. This is a strictly unpaid, volunteer task. Any and all work done will be either in the public domain or licensed under CC BY-NC-ND 4.0. The materials will made available to recipients free of charge, so there will not be any royalties involved. A digital English text will be provided for the translation work. Below are the desired qualifications for the position:

    • Must be fluent enough in both Urdu and English to translate old theology books.
    • Must be willing to communicate in a timely manner. There are not deadlines for the projects, but there are saints waiting to receive the materials in their language.

    Volunteers should be in agreement with the following doctrinal positions, in order to avoid conflicts of interest and possible divisions during the project:

    • We will be providing material from a Sovereign Grace Baptist position. Examples include Abraham Booth, John Gill, and Benjamin Keach. For an outline of this position, please visit rbc-etown.com/our-confession.
    • It is not required to be Baptist in order to do this work, however, the following positions will not be allowed: theonomy, Federal Vision theology, dominion theology, or so-called "biblical patriarchy."
    • If you are interested in the helping with the project, and you are not a Sovereign Grace Baptist, please let me know. The project goal is to provide theology works in the language of saints in Pakistan who are part of a Baptist Fellowship. So you must be willing/able to translate Baptist works in particular, even if you do not agree fully with them.
