A <strong>History</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Christian</strong> <strong>Doctrine</strong><br />

trinitarian Pentecostal organizations were baptized in<br />

Jesus’ name: the Assemblies <strong>of</strong> God (E. N. Bell), the<br />

Pentecostal Assemblies <strong>of</strong> Canada (George Chambers),<br />

the International Church <strong>of</strong> the Foursquare Gospel<br />

(Aimee Semple McPherson), and the Church <strong>of</strong> God in<br />

Christ (C. H. Mason). Clearly, Oneness Pentecostals were<br />

classical Pentecostals and not later <strong>of</strong>fshoots.<br />

As a result <strong>of</strong> the controversies over sanctification<br />

and the oneness <strong>of</strong> God, by the end <strong>of</strong> 1916 the<br />

Pentecostal movement was split three ways. In chapters 4<br />

and 5, we will trace further expansion and organizational<br />

developments, examine doctrinal positions, and draw<br />

conclusions, giving particular attention to the Oneness<br />

Pentecostal movement in chapter 4.<br />
