Outpouring of the Holy Spirit

Outpouring of the

Holy Spirit

Joel 2: 28

“And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those

days will I pour out my spirit.”

INTRODUCTION

the outpouring of the Holy Spirit occurs in the last days at the time of the harvest or gathering together of god’s people

The outpouring of the holy spirit is NOT a singular event & includes the spirit of grace and supplication, the former rain & the latter rain

It is Christ who baptizes us with the holy ghost & fire during the end of time


Spirit of grace & supplication

The spirit of Grace and supplication leads a person to repentance (Zechariah 12: 10)

Though there are saints that are currently obeying the law, god has a multitude of children that are still blind to the truth

This outpouring will open their eyes & cause them to see god for who he is

They will repent from their sins and turn from their wicked ways


The former rain Once a person has repented for their sins & begins to walk in the laws they are then ready for the former rain, which is the time of atonement

This means that god will permanently remove the evil root, which is the knowledge of evil & the desire to sin

He will forgive his children of their sins

God will place his laws & testimonies within the hearts of his children so that they will obey him without fail


The latter rain The latter rain, which is the final rain, includes the gift of immortality

The gift of immortality entails the removal of death from our actual flesh

The latter rain will fall first on the 144,000 as they are the first fruits, the first of God’s children to be delivered in the last days (See class on first fruits)


The latter rain

The latter rain will then be poured upon the remaining saints that are living during that time

For those saints that have already died prior to the last days, they will receive the latter rain at the time of the first resurrection


A look at history to understand the future

There was a great outpouring of the holy spirit upon the apostles during the time of pentecost

Their faith was then stronger than ever and they preached the gospel with power & great miracles

The holy spirit began to spread to other people of all nations and they began to repent for their sins & serve the lord

Eventually Jerusalem was destroyed and the truth fell


a time of darknessWe now live in a time of darkness....a time of famine

This is because the truth has not been heard throughout the world since the fall of jerusalem

Only pockets of people are currently aware of & keeping the truth

Instead, the religious systems of the world have taken over, spreading false doctrine & deceiving the people


A time of light & truth

We look forward to the last days when god will pour out his holy spirit like in the time of the apostles but it will be on a much larger scale

Just as the apostles preached the gospel the truth will be preached again but it will be the everlasting gospel

The everlasting gospel is the teaching of god’s holy laws & testimonies....it is everything that embodies the teachings & principles of our lord & savior


The everlasting gospelWhat makes the everlasting gospel distinct from the gospel preached by the apostles is that it will NOT be trodden down, hidden or mixed with lies

This gospel will finally be effective and make a permanent impact on God’s children

All of those who belong to god will be able to see, hear and understand the word of god

This is because all those that hear & believe will have the power of the holy spirit upon them so that they can in fact change
