The process of domination and power, solidified by the patriarchal system, enters the Judeo-Christian churches, particularly after the theological systematization produced by Augustine of Hippo. Since then, the concepts of guilt and sin are interpreted, manipulated and perpetrated through social roles defined for men and women in Christian circles as forms of justification and sacralization of social inequalities by theologies of domination. A gender analysis of the fictional character Floria Emilia as Augustine's concubine, Saint Augustine, and Frida Maria Strandberg, a Swedish missionary, wife of the founder of the Assemblies of God in Brazil, will project the representativity of the subalternity implemented by such a theology that subjects women Church, to this day, in its daily life to innumerable violences. From the implantation until the beginning of the Assemblies of God in Brazil, from Floras to Fridas, Brazilian Christian women continue to undergo a project of male theological power.
