In March 2010, the PAOC launched a theology seminar to discuss the subject. 1 Although the discussion does not represent the official point of view, it demonstrates the general perception of Pentecostal identity within the church. According to the result of a survey, most of their ministers do not insist on preserving the characteristics of Pentecostal ministry and faith any longer. One of the presenters, J. Martini, quoting from “Matrix Neo”, frankly declared that “there is no spoon”, to suggest that there is not any difference between Pentecostal and charismatic identity! 2 However, an alternative voice rose at the seminar. Peter Cusick and Brandon Malo claimed, “…remove the identity of the early Pentecostals and you lose the movement.”engWith permission of the license/copyright holderPentecostalEthoscharismaticchurchidentityReligious ethicsSpirituality and ethicsChristian denominationsPentecostal, CharismaticDogmaticsThe Characteristics of William Seymour's SermonsArticle
