Abstract
Resumo
A relação das igrejas protestantes/evangélicas brasileiras com o Estado de exceção que se estabeleceu no país a partir de 1964, perdurando por 21 anos, foi de adesão das Igrejas do chamado Protestantismo de Missão, na maioria dos casos, ou de passiva aceitação do regime político imposto pelas armas. O texto a seguir procura descrever as causas histórico-teológicas que levaram a esta postura acrítica da grande maioria das igrejas, salientando com exemplos concretos os casos de adesão direta assim como as formas de resistência que se foram formando ao longo do tempo. Ao mesmo tempo procura assinalar os limites impostos por uma leitura literal/fundamentalista do texto bíblico que privatiza as relações do indivíduo com o Sagrado ignorando as dimensões sociopolíticas que tornam sua existência possível.

Abstract
The relationship between the Brazilian protestant/evangelical churches with the military regime established up 1964, and during 21 years, were either one of agreement and support, in the majority of the cases, particularly among the so called Missions Protestantism churches or of passive acceptation of the new political situation. The text try to describe the historical-theological causes that brought up these churches to this a-critical position showing concrete examples the cases of direct agreement and support and the forms of resistence that were build up along the time. At same time try to sign up the limits of a literal/fundamentalist reading of the biblical text which privatize the relationship between the Holy and the individual not taking in consideration the sociopolitical dimentions that make its life possible.
Keywords: The Brazilian Protestant/evangelical churches. 1964 civil-military coup. Sociopolitical dimentions.
