The purpose of this book is to present a critically informed contemporary Pentecostal hermeneutic rooted in Pentecostal identity, in its stories, beliefs and practices. As Pentecostals began entering academic communities of higher learning, their interpretive methods became both mainstream and modernistic as they adapted the historical critical methods, or the so-called scientific hermeneutic. The proposed hermeneutic contained in this book desires to move beyond the impasse created by Modernity, instead pushing Pentecostals into the contemporary context by critically re-appropriating early Pentecostal ethos and interpretive practices for a contemporary Pentecostal community. The Pentecostal hermeneutic is a three-way interaction for theological meaning between the Holy Spirit, the Pentecostal community and sacred Scripture.

The Latter Rain Covenant! Who ever heard of it before? Of course we have read about "The Days of Heaven on the Earth," in Deuteronomy, but who has seen that those days were to be introduced through the spiritual outworkings of this Covenant? What a wonderful God. No man could have thought these lectures out; they bear the imprint of Heaven's teaching. How marvelous the BOOK! It's treasures are deep and lie hidden, except to the mind of the Spirit, who reveals them to whomsoever He will. These lectures with the exception of the "Pentecostal Psalm" were delivered in the Stone Church, Chicago, at a Pentecostal convention called in the Spring of 1909 for ten days but which continued under the blessing of God for twenty five days. Prayer as well as reading, will be necessary to a clear, spiritual understanding of these lectures. Language fails to express the blessing they have been to me. By Wm. Hamner Piper, Pastor, The Stone Church, Chicago, IL February 1910 - Chicago, Illinois The book became the classical definitive apologetic for the validation of the Pentecostal outpouring as the fulfillment of the expected "Latter Rain." The publication also received a high recommendation from Vicar Alexander A. Boddy of Sunderland, England. Boddy was an Anglican Vicar who was baptized in the Holy Spirit and is considered one of the founders of Pentecostalism in Britain. Boddy wrote in the introduction for Myland's The Latter Rain Covenant and Pentecostal Power, "There has been much literature issued of late in connection with the Baptism in the Holy Spirit, but nothing more scriptural or more satisfying has been printed than this remarkable book by Pastor D. Wesley Myland, which I now warmly commend to God's people everywhere. Boddy went on to write that Myland's book, "Should be found in every Pentecostal home," Because, "It is an invaluable work of reference on the all-important subject of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit."

Volumes one and two of Revival and Awakenings (part of the End-Time Series) explore what is a real revival and a spiritual awakening. Prophetically, it delves into what God has been saying for a long time, which is that the Lord will sweep the earth with revival in the end times which will ignite many followers with His holy fire. What will this revival look like? This is the big question, and one would rather say it will not be a singular event, but a sequence of Godly movements across the globe that will be infectious, contagious and real. In an awakening, the Holy Spirit gives unbelieving people - who are dead in their trespasses and sins -a new awareness of their needs. A revival is connected to the people of God and it is when those who are in churches - those who are professing believers - are ministered to by the Holy Spirit in such a way that they are renewed in their devotion to the Lord. The time is ripe for the one final great harvest, yet this calls for the revived church, full of the fire of the Holy Spirit, to go into the fields, to awaken the lost and the forgotten and broken, and to bring them into the loving embrace of a God who is full of compassion, grace and mercy. This is the time of spiritual latter rains, and now is the time to welcome the embrace of a God who is real, alive, and who calls us all into His arms to reflect His beauty and greatness. It is not God’s Will that any soul should perish, but that all men should come to the knowledge of God and be saved. God is calling on all believers to cast their net in the deep for the harvest of souls.
