made it clear that it belongs to that committee to decide whether a Church is a Pentecostal Church or not. The case of Trollhättan Church is an example to show that a Church was deprived of its right to marry members without having considered themselves to have ceased being a Pentecostal Church. Actions taken in any form against private individuals or Churches, who for some reason have been questioned, are also alluded to in the documents, but need to be more thoroughly examined. The documents make it clear that the Pentecostal Movement does not have or wish to have anything to do with denominational organization. On the other hand however, the examination performed shows that the leaders want to have the functions a denomination presents to its cooperating Churches, e.g. concerning Publishing Houses and social activities, foreign missions, schools, marriage rights, administrative organs for economical contributions from the society etc. The examined administrative organs are an expression for this. This dualism between on the one hand the resistance against the central organizations in their relation to the local Churches and on the other hand the expressed will to benefit from their function, needs to be a subject for further study.
7.3 The history of the central Organizations The origin of the administrative organs discussed in this study, differs. But the common denominator for them should be according to what Pethrus said of the blueprint, that they express ‛the spiritual unifying powers‛ and for ‛visible apostolic links of succession.‛ It is furthermore mutual that it is not the independent local Churches who have united themselves in these organizations, but these organs in question have come to life in different ways, but the common aim for them all is to serve the Swedish Pentecostal Movement. In this way the SFM was created in its capacity as an independent organization in the way that God appointed three men to make up the SFM, the Philadelphia Publishing House was created, a personal initiative which was later handed over to the Philadelphia Church in Stockholm to serve as a mother Church for the whole Pentecostal Movement, as was the case with the Evangelii Härold, and the SFM, the Kaggeholm and the Preachers Fund. In the 60's the Philadelphia Church formed a foundation on behalf of the Swedish Pentecostal Movement to which the Kaggeholm school was handed over. The Dagen started as a company on a private basis, as well as the LP Foundation as a foundation. 80
