Editing P'ent'ay (section)

==Beliefs==
Evangelicals in Ethiopia and Eritrea believe that one is saved by believing in Jesus as Lord and Saviour for the forgiveness of sins. They believe in the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, the one essence of the [[Trinity]]. Like all other Christian groups that accept the [[Gospel|canonical gospels]], P'ent'ays also believe in being "[[born again]]" (''dagem meweled''), as it is written numerous times in the [[Gospel of John]], and demonstrated by one's [[baptism]] in the Holy Spirit as well as water baptism. [[Glossolalia|Speaking in tongues]] is seen as one of the signs, but not the only sign, of "receiving Christ", which should include a new lifestyle and social behavior.

Although almost all Evangelical Protestant branches in Ethiopia and Eritrea have one or two theological differences or different approaches in the interpretation of the Bible, all of the four major branches follow the beliefs common to born-again Christians. The four major denominations also exchange pastors (''megabi'') and allow the preachers to serve in different churches when invited ([[full communion]]). All of the four main churches and others also share and listen to various gospel singers, ''mezmur'' (gospel music or [[hymn]]) producers and choirs.
