Résumé anglais From the salvation of the people of God to the salvation of Mexico : The political participation of the Evangelists. The text draws a panorama of the role played by Mexican « Evangelists » in national politics during the last century. Though a minority, their growing numbers have transformed them into an inevitable group. The author analyses the dynamics of their behavior in relation to political phenomena, to elections and to the diversity of attitudes they have adopted in front of the last two governments (Salinas de Gortari and Fox). The analysis further concerns the instability in the Chiapas, where the increase of converts in Indian communities has lead to an explosive social situation.
