Summary/Abstract: Alevel of relations between two smaller religious communities in Croatia: the Evangelical Church and the Christian religious community of Jehovah's Witnesses towards other religions and ecumenism in a multi-confessional state is being dealt with in this paper. The method of content analysis of their magazines is used to problematize the level of relations of the editorial board, which can be significantly generalized to attitudes of the community leadership, towards the issues mentioned. Although the attitudes of the two analyzed communities are completely opposite, both the tolerance of Pentecostalists and the intolerance of Jehovah's Witnesses have been doctrinarily founded on the Bible.
