本文讨论了在莫桑比克城市的巴西五旬节派女性身体的强有力的转变，并认为五旬节转换体现精神战争的理解。本书以复仇灵魂（如灵魂配偶）为例，探讨灵魂如何干预女性新的社会经济地位和亲密关系。五旬节女性学会在圣灵的引导下控制自己的身体，一场针对精神配偶的“暴力”战争展开了。“暴力”的盛行意味着我们应该批判性地质疑转变带来愈合与和谐的看法。
This article discusses the forceful transformation of the female body in Brazilian Pentecostalism in urban Mozambique and argues for an understanding of Pentecostal conversion as embodying spiritual warfare. Presenting the case of avenging spirits, such as the spirit spouse, it explores how spirits interfere in women's new socio-economic positions and intimate relationships. Pentecostal women learn to stay in control of their body under guidance of the Holy Spirit and a ‘violent’ war against the spirit spouse unfolds. The prevalence of ‘violence’ implies that we should critically question a perception of conversion as bringing healing and harmony.
