It is some type of organization, but not like what normal people think of as Protestantism. Some are independent and "fellowship" with people of the same esoteric teachings. Others have their own organizations like the UPC and AG.

I think we can all agree that the core is speaking in tongues? I would also like to understand the differences in the other section like the Gifts of the Spirit. Do they all believe in getting NEW revelations apart from historical Christianity in some direct contact with the Holy Spirit? How? What is absolutely common to all Pentecostals and Charismatics?
