The Pentecostal movement within Protestant Christianity places
special emphasis on the gifts of the Holy Spirit, as shown in the
Biblical account of the Day of Pentecost. Pentecostalism is similar
to the Charismatic movement, but developed earlier and separated
from the mainstream church. Charismatic Christians, at least in the
early days of the movement, tended to remain in their respective
denominations.
