caption_attribution_description: English: A Protestant Church altar decorated for Pentecost with red burning candles and red banners and altar cloth depicting the fire and sound of blowing wind of the Holy Spirit.
context_page_description: Christian denominations 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, 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.
  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. The more recent Charismatic movements have a focus on the "gifts of the Spirit", but often differ from Pentecostal movements.
  Non-trinitarian Christian views about the Holy Spirit differ significantly from mainstream Christian doctrine.
