Christian denominations have variations in their teachings regarding the Holy Spirit. A well-known example is the Filioque controversy, the debates centering on whether the Nicene Creed should state that the Spirit "proceeds from the Father" and then have a stop, as the creed was initially adopted in Greek (and followed thereafter by the Eastern Church), or should say "from the Father and the Son" as was later adopted in Latin and followed by the Western Church, "filioque" being "and the Son" in Latin.〔''The Holy Spirit: Classic and Contemporary Readings'' by Eugene F. Rogers Jr. (May 19, 2009) Wiley ISBN 1405136235 page 81〕 The majority of mainstream Protestantism hold similar views on the theology of the Holy Spirit as the Roman Catholic Church, but there are significant differences in belief between Pentecostalism and the rest of Protestantism.〔''Encyclopedia of Protestantism'' by J. Gordon Melton 2008 ISBN 0816077460 page 69〕 The more recent Charismatic movements have a focus on the "gifts of the Spirit", but often differ from Pentecostal movements.〔''Encyclopedia of Protestantism'' by J. Gordon Melton 2008 ISBN 0816077460 page 134〕 Non-trinitarian views about the Holy Spirit differ significantly from mainstream Christian doctrine. ==Roman Catholicism== According to Roman Catholic theology the primary work of the Holy Ghost is through the church. According to the Encyclical of Pope Leo XIII Divinum illud munus: "''...the indwelling and miraculous power of the Holy Ghost; and the extent and efficiency of His action, both in the whole body of the Church and in the individual souls of its members, through the glorious abundance of His divine graces. Through the Church's sacraments, Christ communicates His Holy and sanctifying spirit to the faithful."'' Around the 6th century, the word ''Filioque'' was added to the Nicene Creed, defining as a doctrinal teaching that the Holy Ghost "proceedeth from the Father and the Son." While the Eastern Catholic churches are required to believe the doctrinal teaching contained in the ''Filioque'', they are not all required to insert it in the Creed when it is recited during the Divine Liturgy. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Holy Spirit (Christian denominational variations)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
