So, for you, only those who are Apostolic are "Pentecostal"? Would it be accurate to say that you don't consider Church of God in Christ, Assembly of God, Church of the Foursquare Gospel, Calvary Chapel and other Pentecostal denominations to be Pentecostal?

Are you implying her ex-site is helping someone????????????????
If so then we will never be close to the same page.
Actually her site (I haven't read it all, but I'm assuming that you're talking about Lois's site) did help me a few years back. I'm not ex upc, but came close to it.
We had a situation happen and told that we were going to conform or not be apart of our church anymore. I was able to vent and converse with others about it. Which in turn enabled me to go to my pastor with a clearer mind and present an articulate argument without emotional drama playing a part. We came to a middle ground and all (that I know of) in the church were happy with the decision.

This is just plain wierd. Now we are playing word games - nothing short of intellectual dishonesty.
THEY claim to be Pentecostal however they do NOT preach the message declared at Pentecost by the first Pentecostal preacher so how much Pentecostal is that? NO ONE who does not baptize in Jesus Name is Pentecostal in the BIBLICAL sense.
