I'm Pentecostal and Proud. I live my life according to Acts 2:38. I don't cut my hair I wear skirts and I present myself like a lady should!

Pentecostals believe in One God and have many standards. There are rumors that it is a "cult". It is not and they do not believe that because a person cuts their hair or wears pants or make up that they will go to hell. They believe everyone who is filled with the Holy Spirit will presumably go to Heaven. Pentecostals welcome anyone and everyone. Also God is the only one who can judge for He has no sins. Only a person with no sin may judge others.
Steve "Pentecostals say that everyone who cuts their hair will go to Hell."
Carol " That is not true!! They believe that only a person who has no sin may judge. If a person if filled with the Holy Spirit then they will go to Heaven."

1. A (Proper Noun)
A Charismatic sect of Conservative Christianity that places Jesus Christ as man's only means of deliverance from the slavery of sin, and that spiritual gifts to Prophecy, Heal, Discern Spiritually, Speak in Other Tongues; and other attributes such as creativity, charity, and compassion are open to all believers who are in Christ.
A genuine follower demonstrates through continual actions the prinicples of the above faith through love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. They have a history of abiding close to moral dogmas that have proven empirically, emotionally, and extraordinarily concrete in Christian Doctrine as revealed in the Belief of Infallibility (inerrancy) of Scripture in the original tongues.

Tom is such a great Pentecostal, he prayed over my illness, helped discern the best choice in a difficult situation, and never fails to laugh, cheer, or love anybody.
Christy is so generous in her support of orphans in the city; she must be a Pentecostal!

They claim to allow anyone into their church, but they shun or ignore people who do not share their cult beliefs, force women into uniforms, force men to shave or look "god worthy" they home school their children, whom they ignore unless its flop on the ground for god time, and wear skirts and no makeup because they are unworthy of life outside their self abusing religion. It claims the funds and lives of hard working men to fund lazy non working wives who waste money on antiques and the newest home products.....avoid at all costs, execute when legal.
Look at that pentecostal floppin, that stupid bun head skirt tard has a hard on for the holy spirit.

A once borderline cult within Christianity that has made its way into the suburban middle-class mainstream. Their doctrine of salvation is rather contradictory, unlike the Baptists, because they believe in accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior AND living righteously to get into heaven., rather than salvation by grace alone.

A Christian denomination founded in 1901 on Asuza Street in Los Angeles, California. During a time when racism had made its way through Christian denominations and split the faith by skin color, people of all different ethnicities became entangled in love with the birth of the Pentecostal Movement.
Particularly different from other denominations, Pentecostals believe that miracles, signs, and "gifts of the Spirit" are still operational in modern society. The gift that occurs most frequently in Pentecostal churches is glossalalia, also known as "speaking in tongues." Most often manifests itself, not in speaking other human languages, but in speaking in the tongues of angels (1 Corinthians 14:2, 1 Corinthians 13).
Pentecostalism is the fastest growing Christian denomination in the world by conversion and arguably makes Christianity the fastest growing religion. (Islam is the fastest growing religion by birth, but Christianity is the fastest growing by converts.)
There are many different groups within Pentecostalism itself: some which believe in the Trinity, others which deny it and believe in the Oneness of God; some which baptize solely in Jesus' Name (Acts 2:38), and others which baptize in "the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost"; some with very strong standards for women (i.e., not cutting their hair or wearing pants), and others with only standards of modesty.
It should be noted that the Charismatic Movement was birth out of the Pentecostal Movement. While all Charismatics are (consequently) Pentecostals, all Pentecostals are not Charismatics. Popular televangelists like Kenneth Copeland, Benny Hinn, and Creflo Dollar are Charismatics who are teachers in the "Word of Faith Movement." They are not classical Pentecostals.
