ripen the grain for the harvest. This was termed the
latter rain. This course of nature is taken to illus
trate the work of the Spirit in this dispensation.
AVhen, on the day of Pentecost, the great work of the
gospel began, the Spirit was poured out marvelously.
This, with the wonderful manifestation during the
apostolic age, constituted the "early rain." The work
of the Spirit has continued more or less from that
time to this; but as the work of grace shall draw to a
close, a more copious outpouring of the Spirit may be
expected to ripen the gospel harvest for the kingdom
of God. The second coming of Christ is represented
by a reaper coming with a sharp sickle to rea.p the
harvest of the earth. Kev. 14:14. From this ex
pression in James, that the husbandman waits long till
he receive the early and latter rain, and from Hosea
6: 3, where the latter rain is mentioned first, it would
appear that the latter rain was so abundant as to be
accounted two together the latter rain and the first
added to it. If this is so, we may look for more than
the scenes of Pentecost to be re-enacted among the
people of God before the end.
