The Museum of Idolatry. What are the Primary Differences Between the Common Christian De. Anon15712 - The evolution and development of Christian denominations or sects is *so* long and complex. Wesleyanism is the name for the movement within Christian theology that two brothers -- missionaries of Church of England, John Wesley and Charles Wesley, stressed when they came to the US in the early 1700's.
The Pentecostal movement, which is said to have begun in the late 1800's, is considered to be borne out of the Wesleyan movement. And, the Azusa Street Revival is said to have helped spread Pentecostalism. But there are many forms of Pentecostalism. I think there are, in fact, two categories -- Trinitarian and Oneness -- one believing in salvation by faith alone (e.g., Trinitarian Pentecostals like the Assemblies of God) and salvation by deeds (e.g., Oneness Pentecostals like the UPC). While Wesley is very closely associated with modern-day Methodism, a whole network of churches that today may seem very different from the Methodist beliefs, have *roots* in Wesleyanism. Home Page.
