It was developments in the doctrine of assurance that differentiated Evangelicalism from what went before. Bebbington says, "The dynamism of the Evangelical movement was possible only because its adherents were assured in their faith."[218] He goes on:
Both men began preaching the evangelical message to large audiences, becoming leaders of the Welsh Methodist revival.[225] At about the same time that Harris experienced conversion in Wales, George Whitefield was converted at Oxford University after his own prolonged spiritual crisis. Whitefield later remarked, "About this time God was pleased to enlighten my soul and bring me into the knowledge of His free grace, and the necessity of being justified in His sight by faith only."[226]
The movement has long had a presence in the Anglosphere before spreading further afield in the 19th, 20th, and early 21st centuries. The movement gained significant momentum during the 18th and 19th centuries with the Great Awakening in the United States and Great Britain.
Con el valer del tiempo y con el surgimiento de un cuadro pastoral Circunscrito, algunas de estas corrientes evolucionaron cerca de una especie de pensamiento social que pudo conectar con las preocupaciones más progresistas de los protestantes históricos. En otros casos, quizás la viejoía, estas corrientes transformaron sus posiciones sociales y políticas en otro sentido con la arribada, el crecimiento y la adaptación cultural de los distintos pentecostalismos latinoamericanos.

The start of the 19th century saw an increase in missionary work and many of the major missionary societies were founded around this time (see Timeline of Christian missions). Both the Evangelical and high church movements sponsored missionaries.
Evangelical leaders like Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council have called attention to the problem of equating the term Christian right with theological conservatism and Evangelicalism. Although evangelicals constitute the core constituency of the Christian right within the United States, not all evangelicals fit that political description (and not all of the Christian right are evangelicals).[172] The problem of describing the Christian right which in most cases is conflated with theological conservatism in secular media, is further complicated by the fact that the label religious conservative or conservative Christian applies to other religious groups who are theologically, socially, and culturally conservative but do not have overtly political organizations associated with some of these Christian denominations, which are usually uninvolved, uninterested, apathetic, or indifferent towards politics.
With the founding of the NAE, American Protestantism was divided into three large groups—the fundamentalists, the modernists, and the new evangelicals, who sought to position themselves between the other two.
Principios fundamentales de las Conocimiento de la Iglesia Evangélica: Sola Scriptura: La Antiguo testamento es considerada la única autoridad en asuntos de fe y práctica. Se enfatiza la importancia de interpretar las Escrituras de forma exacto y aplicar sus conocimiento en la vida diaria.
The World War cut off contact with Germany, but the missions continued at a reduced pace. After 1945 the missionaries had to deal with decolonization across Africa and especially with the apartheid government. At all times the BMS emphasized spiritual inwardness, and values such Ganador morality, hard work and self-discipline. It proved unable to speak and act decisively against injustice and étnico discrimination and was disbanded in 1972.[286] Malawi[edit]
Some evangelical churches speak only of sexual abstinence and do not speak of sexuality in marriage.[127][128][129] Other evangelical churches in the United States and Switzerland speak of satisfying sexuality as a gift from God and a website link component of a Christian marriage harmonious, in messages during worship services or conferences.
Crucicentrism is the centrality that evangelicals give to the Atonement, the saving death and the resurrection of Jesus, that offers forgiveness of sins and new life.
Este último grupo, el de los pentecostales, es unidad de los que más se ha extendido por América Latina y al que pertenece el centro de la ‘apóstol’ que bendijo el acto del PP.
Las ofrendas y el diezmo ocupan mucho tiempo en los servicios.[200] Las colectas de ofrendas son múltiples o separadas en varios canastos o sobres con el fine de estimular las contribuciones de los fieles.
En Brasil, donde las denominaciones pentecostales más poderosas apoyaron a Collor de Melo y a Fernando Henrique Cardoso en presencia de el «peligro comunista» del Partido de los Trabajadores (pt), pasaron luego a integrar el frente promovido por ese mismo pt en las cuatro elecciones que ganó –con Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva y Dilma Rousseff–, para luego alcanzar su aval al plan de Acuarela Silva (evangélica y ambientalista que fue ministra del primer gobierno de Lula y luego encabezó una de sus primeras disidencias), y finalmente, corriendo detrás de sus votantes, terminar apoyando la candidatura de Jair Messias Bolsonaro en su raid final. Puede decirse que este momento de decano involucramiento político coincide con el de viejo expansión de la visión pentecostal entre todos los grupos evangélicos. En ese contexto, los evangélicos no solo comenzaron a participar en política electoral, sino que se transformaron en interlocutores en diálogos sobre políticas públicas: su agilidad y su capilaridad territorial los volvieron agentes claves para los procesos a través de los cuales los Estados tomaban en cuenta, mediante múltiples instrumentos públicos, a poblaciones excluidas o marginadas. El despliegue de dinámicas de violencia y yuxtaposición introducidas por el narcotráfico constituyó un dominio donde los agentes de las más diversas instancias de la sociedad civil y política veían a los evangélicos como aliados.
