Zusammenfassung:The main aim of this article is to present the most important elements of the process of global pentecostalization of Christianity as a new Reformation, and to analyze selected phenomena of religious life, characteristic for new forms of understanding and experiencing the Christian religion in the planetary dimension. Pentecostal religiosity is characterized by speaking in tongues, miracles, exorcisms, healings, television evangelism, and megachurches. You must understand now the origins and growth of Pentecostalism, looking not only at the philosophical and theological aspects of the movement, but underlining also its enormous influence on the social and political life in many countries of the world.
