"'And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.'-Zechariah 13:6
"Yes, long ago Jesus came to this earth - the "house of His friends" - and was mortally wounded. But this would not be the last time His presumed friends would wound Him.
"This book is the story of a time much closer to ours, when Jesus came near again, bringing with Him a priceless gift to present to His church - the full measure of the Holy Spirit in Latter Rain power.
"But though some few accepted it fully with joy, many others chose to wound the Giver by resisting and rejecting His gift. The Latter Rain that might have been was delayed - and waits even yet to resume.
"This story is our chance to learn from the past, to avoid repeating it - it's another chance to welcome the Giver fully and receive His gift with unbounded gratitude."
