This article intends to show that the image of the Devil can be understood at the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God (UCKG) not only as a religious symbol, but also as an agent of fear and an instrument of pastoral power, updated by this Church that endorses the neoliberal standards of success, present in Brazilian society. It also describes the image of the Devil as an audiovisual discursive construction and indicates its meaning for the religious imagery on the UCKG stages. In order to do so, the text invokes the studies of Patrícia Birman about the UCKG, as well as the theories of Bauman and of authors who elaborated on Foucault’s thoughts on fear and pastoral power. This study has its corpus based on videos of exorcisms created on the UCKG stages and shared on YouTube by the Church itself.

Este artigo pretende mostrar que a imagem do Diabo pode ser compreendida na Igreja Universal do Reino de Deus (IURD) não somente como símbolo religioso, mas também como agente do medo e instrumento de poder pastoral, atualizado por essa igreja, que endossa os padrões neoli-berais de sucesso presentes na sociedade brasileira. Também descreve a imagem do Diabo como uma construção discursiva audiovisual e indica seu significado para o imaginário religioso nos palcos da IURD. Para tanto, este texto tráz os estudos de Patrícia Birman sobre a IURD e mobili-za as teorias de Bauman e de autores que se debruçaram sobre as teorias de Foucault sobre o me-do e o poder pastoral. Este estudo tem seu corpus composto de vídeos de exorcismos criados nos palcos da IURD e compartilhados no YouTube pela própria Igreja.
