Abstract

Protestantism in Macedonia was a process led by Americans missioners that worked on this regions. They succeeded, with their self-sacrificed and beside all, their active "program" they based their work on, to established a complete net of communities and churches, that were integrated in the social milieu. The tumultuous events, war campaigns and processes in the Balkans, caused the withdraw of that missioners from this regions, so their protestants "structure" was shaken from the base. The Congregational church base turned to Methodist church in Yugoslavia. Since 1922, the Protestantism in Macedonia got a new form - Methodist. The Protestantism in Macedonia didn't reach any increase because of the fact that the protestants missioners didn't translate the Bible in Macedonian language, although until 1937 the Bible was translated in 1008 languages and dialects throughout the world. The work in Macedonia with Bible translated in Bulgarian language was discouraging for the Macedonian people. The development of the process of de-secularization of the religion, seen through the common trend of the "westernisation of the common cultural frame", has satisfactory influence on the process of creation of a whole group of minority's christian religious communities in Macedonia. Gradually, the enlargement of this structure actualize as well the "conflict" with the dominate religious subject.
