Sumario:The present research on Pentecostal and Toré cults: resistances, limits and challenges of the religious cultural universe of the Tabajara Indians of Paraíba in the century XXI, aimed to investigate how and to what extent the conversion of the Tabajara Indians to the Christian faith, especially through contact with Pentecostal churches, intervenes or not in the maintenance of their tradition. Since the end of the 19th century, all culture, tradition and memory of this people has been denied, silenced and oppressed, causing a diaspora, after their lands were expropriated, a fact that led many indigenous people to wisely take refuge on the outskirts of the surrounding cities. and, as a means of survival, many ended up converting to the Pentecostal Christian faith. Because of this, many became Christians by personal choice. As of 2006, with the process of Tabajara ethnogenesis, which is the struggle of these people for their recognition, there are two realities: on the one hand, contact with such churches compromises their religious identity and on the other, a new paradigm of religious belonging in the culture of these people. Hence, key concepts of our research will be the idea of religious transit; religious identity; multiple belonging; and the idea of culture itself. The relevance of indigenous Tabajara religiosity is an element of paramount importance for the construction of the ethnic/cultural identity of this people, however, although research on the subject is scarce, we cite the pioneering work of Barcellos and Farias (2015a), Fábio Mura et al (2017), Saraiva (2019) and Figueiredo (2020), were essential to anchor this thesis. This is a research with a qualitative approach, whose methodological approach was documental research and a bibliographic review on the history of the Tabajara Indians; ethnographic work through participant observation and film, photographic and netnographic records. From this investigation, it was verified how contemporary Tabajara religious pluralism is found; the main features of the ethnic/cultural and religious identity of the Tabajara people were described; finally, we present the resistances, limits and challenges of the Tabajara religious cultural universe.
