Are there any members here who belong to pentecostal or apostolic churches? And if so, are these two groups one and the same?

If so do these groups practice "oneness" doctrine outright? Or are there some who do not believe in the "oneness" doctrine and still attend such churches?

I haven't a clue. But . . . the single most important thing that you can do throughout your ENTIRE life . . . is know and understand Colossians 2:9-15. If a person does not know and understand the Circumcision of Christ, nothing else matters. Not one . . . thing. A person can have all money, all gorgeous women (if you're a man), all attention and affection, all wisdom, all knowledge . . . but if we do not possess Circumcision of Heart, we have absolutely nothing.

Assemblies of God (AOG) and Elim Pentecostal are Trinitarian.

UPC, Church of God are "Oneness" (Jesus Only).
 
I noticed the Church of God mentioned and there are many churches by that name and are not affiliated with each other. and should not be lumped together. The church group I am speaking of do not preach oneness.

I belong to a pentecostal church, which is apostolic, meaning we follow the teachings of the apostles. We are pentecostal because we believe the Holy Sprit was given on the day of Pentecost. They can be used interchangeable.
Not all pentecostal churches are oneness. Assembly of God is pentecostal. But not oneness
Therefore they baptize in the trinity, not in Jesus name. Anymore questions?
