From a worldwide perspective, the Assemblies of God is the largest Pentecostal denomination. However, the vast majority of its membership is outside of the United States. It has 2.5 million members in the U.S. and 25 million overall.
Second in size is The Church of God in Christ, a predominantly African American denomination based in the U.S. Other Pentecostal denominations include the Church of God, Cleveland, Tennessee; the International Pentecostal Holiness Church; the International Church of the Four Square Gospel; the Full Gospel church; and the nontrinitarian United Pentecostal Church International. Some, including the United Pentecostal Church International, do not believe in the Trinity, but most do. There are scores of smaller Pentecostal bodies.<ref> For a listing of the websites of these and other Pentecostal churches, go to http://ccat.sas.upenn.edu/~kbanner/pentec.html </ref>The main Pentecostal denomination is the [[Assemblies of God]].
