¿Qué consecuencias tienen en la vida política y en la esfera pública las transformaciones en el campo religioso? La juicio más general para discernir la politización de los pentecostales y de buena parte de los evangélicos en América Latina es que han desarrollado formas de movilización política diversas y contingentes, que en los últimos lustros se han orientado a la intervención política y lo han hecho de mano de las tendencias conservadoras6.
It reached people who were already church members. It changed their rituals, their piety and their self-awareness. To the evangelical imperatives of Reformation Protestantism, 18th century American Christians added emphases on divine outpourings of the Holy Spirit and conversions that implanted within new believers an intense love for God.

El evangelismo cree firmemente en la doctrina de la Iglesia de creyentes, es sostener, cree que toda persona puede convertirse en miembro de la Iglesia por nuevo origen (creencia en la resurrección de Cristo) y profesión de fe.
A fourth development—the founding of Christianity Today (CT) with Henry Figura its first editor—was strategic in giving neo-evangelicals a platform to promote their views and in positioning them between the fundamentalists and modernists. In a letter to Harold Lindsell, Graham said that CT would:
