Background: A growing number of studies have begun to emphasize differences between Pentecostals and Charismatics (P/Cs), on the one hand, and Evangelicals, on the other. Yet few of these studies have considered differences in transnational missions. Purpose: This study explores the extent to which P/C and Evangelical organizations vary in their transnational outreach, both in terms of what they do and where they operate. Methods: To examine these differences, I explore data on transnational American Protestant mission agencies using descriptions of trends over time and time series logistic regressions. Results: Although both P/Cs and Evangelicals tend to be concerned with otherworldly soteriological issues, I find that P/Cs are even more likely to engage in otherworldly types of activities that allow for the propagation and proliferation of the Gospel, especially with respect to evangelism and the publication and distribution of Christian literature. In addition, although both P/C and Evangelical agencies gravitate towards countries where the percentage of Protestants is low, P/C agencies are comparatively less active in countries with the lowest percentages. However, there is little evidence of differences between P/C and Evangelical agencies’ ministries when it comes to countries’ varying levels of development. Conclusions and Implications: The study concludes with several implications. First, although many differences may be more salient when distinguishing Evangelicals and P/Cs together from other Protestant traditions, there are sufficient important variations between the two former traditions to warrant treating them as analytically distinct, at least with respect to their organized transnational activism. Second, at the same time, non-findings in the study also suggest that differences between Evangelicals and P/Cs are not as pronounced at the organizational as compared to the individual level. Finally, the study reflects on the limitations of the data with recommendations for further research.

新教跨国主义中的多样性：五旬节派/灵恩派和福音派使命的范围和范围的差异

背景：越来越多的研究开始强调一方面是五旬节派和灵恩派 (P/C)，另一方面是福音派之间的差异。然而，这些研究很少考虑跨国使命的差异。目的：本研究探讨了 P/C 和福音派组织在其跨国外展方面的差异程度，无论是在他们做什么和在哪里运营方面。方法：为了检查这些差异，我使用随时间变化的趋势描述和时间序列逻辑回归来探索跨国美国新教宣教机构的数据。结果：虽然 P/Cs 和福音派都倾向于关注超凡脱俗的救赎问题，我发现 P/Cs 更有可能从事超凡脱俗的活动，以促进福音的传播和扩散，尤其是在传福音和基督教文学的出版和分发方面。此外，尽管 P/C 和福音派机构都倾向于新教徒百分比较低的国家，但 P/C 机构在百分比最低的国家相对不那么活跃。然而，当谈到国家不同的发展水平时，几乎没有证据表明 P/C 和福音派机构的部委之间存在差异。结论和意义：该研究的结论有几个意义。首先，虽然在将福音派和 P/Cs 与其他新教传统区分开来时，许多差异可能更为突出，两种以前的传统之间存在足够重要的差异，值得将它们视为在分析上截然不同，至少在其有组织的跨国激进主义方面是如此。其次，与此同时，研究中的非调查结果也表明，与个人层面相比，福音派和 P/C 之间的差异在组织上并不明显。最后，该研究反映了数据的局限性，并提出了进一步研究的建议。
