The present paper deals with investigating the category of the sacredness of the English religious
preaching discourse, considered from the standpoint of theolinguistics. It has been proved that being a secondary
form of sacred texts, the text of the sermon demonstrates the frequent use of the sacral vocabulary
of different groups: limited conceptual and terminological vocabulary, which has religious sense and
meanings, borrowings from sacred texts (the so-called biblicisms), and vocabulary of everyday communication,
which in the context of preaching becomes religious, and is included in the semantic field of religion
on this basis. Different perception of nature and ways to realize the sermon in the Anglican and Neo-
Protestant churches is manifested in the peculiarities of the attitude towards the sacrality of the Word. The
process of desacralization of the sermon, recorded in the Neo-Protestant sermons, occurs due to the contrasting
use of sacred vocabulary in a stylistically reduced context, on the one hand, and the use of profane
vocabulary to nominate sacred phenomena, on the other.
