Holy Spirit (Christian denominational variations)

The different Denominations of Christianity have variations in their teachings regarding the Holy Spirit.

A well-known example is the Filioque controversy, the debates centering on whether the Nicene Creed should state that the Spirit "proceeds from the Father" and then have a stop, as the creed was initially adopted in Greek (and followed thereafter by the Eastern Church), or should say "from the Father and the Son" as was later adopted in Latin and followed by the Western Church, "filioque" being "and the Son" in Latin.[1]

The majority of mainstream Protestantism hold similar views on the theology of the Holy Spirit as the Roman Catholic Church, but there are significant differences in belief between Pentecostalism and the rest of Protestantism.[2][3][4] The Charismatic Movement within mainstream Christian Churches has a focus on the "gifts of the Spirit", but differ from Pentecostal movements.[5]

Non-trinitarian Christian views about the Holy Spirit differ significantly from mainstream Christian doctrine.
