Best Answer

The term "Pentecostal" refers to a system of beliefs and experiences based from Acts chapter 2 of The Bible. Acts 2 records the events of the early Christians which happened on the Jewish feast of Pentecost (Acts 2:1).

Pentecostals look - and expect - to experience the same encounter with the Holy Spirit that is recorded in Acts 2:4: that when they receive the in-filling of the Holy Spirit, they speak in other languages, unknown to the speaker.
