Explanation

Doctrine refers to a belief or set of beliefs held and taught by a church, political party, or other group. While dogma is similar, it specifically refers to a principle laid down by an authority as incontrovertibly true, whereas doctrine fits the broader definition of a position or theory advocated by a religion or government. Deliverance means rescue, and dominion means sovereignty or control.
