Abstract

A partir do livro Os mistérios da fé, de autoria da principal liderança da Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus, Edir Macedo, procuro refletir sobre a noção de fé e sobre as características do discurso do autor. Considero que, a partir do texto de Macedo, é possível falar sobre estratégias discursivas reproduzidas no interior da denominação, assim como caracterizar as investidas proselististas que se realizam a partir delas. Ao examinar a tradução que Macedo faz sobre a noção de fé nessa publicação, destaco o emprego das idéias de "fé natural" e "fé sobrenatural", sublinhando continuidades e descontinuidades entre mundo secularizado e universo religioso dentro da proposta do autor.Based on the book "The mysteries of the faith", written by the main leader of the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God, Edir Macedo, I reflect about the notion of faith and about the characteristics of the author's discourse. I consider that, by focusing Macedo's text, it's possible to talk about discursive strategies reproduced in the denomination routine and also characterize the proselytists activities that take place from them. By analyzing Macedo's translation of the notion of faith in this publication, I point out the use of the ideas of "natural faith" and "supernatural faith", reinforcing the continuities and discontinuities between secularized world and religious universe in the author's propose.
