How does Pentecostalism differ from Catholicism? (Pentecostalism) Origins The Pentecostal religion started on the first year A.D on the first day of Pentecost. This was the day where the apostles were in a hotel and they all had a little fire flame on their heads and they went out side and spoke in tongue. Religious Practices The Pentecostalism community believe in a more personal relationship with God. The main emphasis is they believe that God is a personal God. They encourage speaking in tongues which is where they prey in gibberish. They put a lot of emphasis on having faith in God to do things such as performing miracles and healing.
