SPIRIT OF THE LAST DAYS

"Its provocative content invites, even demands, further research and discussion and evokes a host of historical, theological, ethical, social, and political questions. Further exploration of the central thesis, its implications, its relevance to and acceptance by Pentecostals in the "pew," its significance for the renewal of holiness and miracle in the present, its considerations of the Latter Rain and Liberation theology movements, and the possibility of tertium quid synthesizing this revitalizing vision of eschatology with current apocalyptic perception, are all important paths of inquiry. In all events, the direction indicated can help us recover some of our less appreciated roots, rethink our present, and perhaps find our future. We can pray and hope that these dialogues will guide us to a place that unites ethics and expectation in a transformational present." -Bruce R. Marino, PNEUMA Journal of the Society for Pentecostal, December 2008
