Methodist and Pentecostal beliefs on communion differ significantly. Methodists view communion as a sacrament, emphasizing its role in grace and the presence of Christ, and typically practice it regularly as part of their worship. In contrast, many Pentecostals see communion more as a symbolic act, focusing on personal faith and the remembrance of Christ's sacrifice rather than a means of grace. Consequently, the understanding and significance of communion can vary widely between the two traditions.

Pentecostals are an organized movement: there are specific denominations (such as the Assemblies of God) that officially codify Pentecostal belief (in a nutshell, basic evangelical/fundamentalist beliefs plus an emphasis on the work of the Holy Spirit, through miracles, healings, speaking in tongues, etc). Charismatics are Christians who hold Pentecostal beliefs but belong to churches that are theologically non-Pentecostal. Examples include Oral Roberts (United Methodist), Pat Robertson (Southern Baptist), the late Brian Hathaway (Plymouth Brethren), Bill Subritsky (Anglican), Larry Christenson (Lutheran), Jack Deere (Presbyterian), and Francis MacNutt (Roman Catholic).

What is the differences between apostolic and pentecostal?
Pentecostalism is an umbrella term used in order to refer to groups that came from the early 1900 Azusa Street Revival. Of these groups, the two major terms include Oneness Pentecostals and Trinitarian Pentecostals. Oneness Pentecostals are often referred to as "Apostolic Pentecostals", which is a way used to define their doctrinal beliefs in the Oneness of God and the Acts 2:38 Plan of Salvation. Within this movement, the largest organization of Apostolic Pentecostals is called the United Pentecostal Church International. Members of this organization often carry the title of "Pentecostal", whereas another church that is not affiliated with the United Pentecostal Church (UPCI) but still hold to the same doctrinal beliefs will sometimes carry the title "Apostolic", simply implying their church's independence and no affiliation with any certain organization.
