The Early And The Latter Rain (1856)

The Early and the Latter Rain, written by James Smith and published in 1856, is a religious book that explores the concept of spiritual revival. The book takes its title from a biblical metaphor that refers to the two rainy seasons in Israel, which represent the outpouring of God's blessings and the spiritual awakening of his people. In the book, Smith argues that the church has lost its fervor and needs a revival to renew its faith and commitment to God. He draws on biblical examples and personal experiences to illustrate the importance of repentance, prayer, and faith in bringing about revival. Smith also addresses common obstacles to revival, such as pride, unbelief, and complacency, and offers practical advice on how to overcome them. He emphasizes the role of the Holy Spirit in guiding and empowering believers to live a holy and fruitful life. Overall, The Early and the Latter Rain is a passionate call to Christians to seek God's face and experience the fullness of his blessings through spiritual revival.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
