The Pentecostal Presbyterian Church (in Portuguese Igreja Presbiteriana Pentecostal or IPP) is a denomination of orientation Pentecostal, founded on November 18, 1974, in Campos dos Goytacazes, Rio de Janeiro from a group of dissident members of the Presbyterian Church of Brazil, who adhered to the Pentecostal doctrine of Baptism with the Holy Spirit as a second blessing, after conversion.[1]

The denomination stands out for its political participation. In 2020, one of its pastors, Irlan Melo, was elected Alderman, in the Municipality of Belo Horizonte.[3][4][5][6][7]

History

[edit]

The denomination emerged on November 18, 1974, in Campos dos Goytacazes, Rio de Janeiro from a group of members of Presbyterian Church of Brazil claimed to have been baptized by the Holy Spirit, seeking to form a church Pentecostal. As the headquarters church grew, several churches were founded in other locations.[1][2]

In 1991, the denomination's first church was founded in Belo Horizonte, where the denomination experienced rapid growth.[1][2]

Other churches were founded in Rio Grande do Norte and São Paulo in the 2000s.[8][9][10][11][12]

In the 2010s, the denomination spread to other countries, starting to plant churches in Spain.[1][2]

Doctrine

[edit]

The denomination adopts the system known as G12 and believes in the modern apostolate,[13] which is completely rejected by traditional Presbyterian denominations[14][15][16][17] and generally adopted by neo-Pentecostal denominations.[18][19][20][21][22][23]
