1955 Former PAJC members legally re-chartered PAJC
1968 Members split over UPC being too liberal and formed AMF
1990s Members split over Westberg Resolution
2008 Members split over TV
I don't think any of these constitute a "split". All were less than ten percent of constituency. The WWPF perhaps came close - but remember those who originally "signed up" were under wrong impression that they could stay UPC if they chose to. When it became clear that would not be tolerated, a significant number recanted there allegiance to the World Wide Wrestling group.

Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945

"It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves
