The doctrine of the "Trinity" was debated and finally confirmed at the Council of Nicea (325). From what I gather from my United Pentecostal friends is that they reject this common Christian doctrine, rather believing in the "oneness" doctrine. This comes from the statement by Jesus saying "I and the Father are one." They are adamant about the divinity of Jesus though and quite much so. Therefore I would say that they do not have an Arian-based belief system, only one that they believe was based on a pre-Nicean Christian belief. The Arians believed that Christ was "the firstborn" (see St Paul's writings), so naturally this type of Christology would be derived. So again, no. The UPC are adamant supporters of the divinity of Jesus, not his subjugation neither creation by God and therefore, not Arianists.
