List of Pentecostal denominations

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Ludek Geograf (talk | contribs) at 14:32, 9 September 2019 (→‎List of Trinitarian Pentecostal and Full Gospel Churches: +1). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Pentecostal and Full Gospel Churches are a family of churches that are generally considered to have similar beliefs. Many of the larger denominations are members of the Pentecostal World Fellowship. In North America, there is also an interdenominational organization called The Pentecostal/Charismatic Churches of North America (PCCNA). There is also a separate Nontrinitarian group of Pentecostal Churches commonly called Oneness Pentecostal Churches, but because of their differing views on the Trinity, they are generally categorized separately from Trinitarian Pentecostal and Full Gospel churches. Many of the membership numbers below are reported by the denominations themselves, and as such should be considered to be approximate. Also the list itself should not be considered comprehensive as there are many small, denominations below 100,000 in membership, and individual churches that chose not to affiliate with other denominations.
