Explaining the 'latter rain' teaching

Taking questions from the live chat.

Today's Time Stamps:

0:00 - Intro
1. 0:21 [Cover-Up Culture Update} Do you have an update on the cover-up culture exposure project?
2. 15:42 {Un-Learning Without Deconstructing} For those who used to be a part of Bethel, what advice would you give to those who are deconstructing things learned there without losing faith? I attended their ministry school years ago.
3. 22:22 {Inter-Faith Marital Conflicts} My wife is Catholic, but I have an issue with our kids going to mass due to it being a propitiatory sacrifice. Am I doing more harm (by causing strife in the marriage) than good by not exposing them?
4. 24:55 {Who Was Theudas?} Who was Theudas in Acts 5? Is it a contradiction?
5. 31:20 {God’s Will & Our Choices} Some people pray for God to remove a potential partner from their life if they aren’t the right fit. I’ve tried this, too, but God doesn’t always remove the partner in question. Why is that?
6. 34:35 {One of Mike’s Favorite Verses} What is your favorite Bible verse and why? P.s., I liked your cat video.
7. 37:47 {Adam & Eve Clothed with Lamb?} Do you think God used a lamb to clothe Adam and Eve in Genesis 3? Paul says, “Put on the Lord Jesus Christ,” the lamb!
8. 41:07 {How to "Test All Things"} 1 Thessalonians 5:19-21 says to "test all things," but gives no context as to what the testing looks like. I am a Bethel alumni who doesn’t want to throw away prophecy. I need to know how to test all things.
9. 49:30 {Third Temple: Location?} For third temple prophecy, is the location specified? Does it HAVE to be the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, or can it be built somewhere else in Israel?
10. 54:02 {Mental Illness vs. Demonic Possession} What is your opinion on whether or not the spike in mental illness in this world could potentially be demon possession?
11. 57:07 {Non-Competitive Evangelism} I do a lot of evangelism, in an older tradition that has not focused on evangelism for a long time. How do I evangelize without it feeling like it’s a competition with newer, trendier churches?
12. 58:58 {Parents & Adult Children’s Sin} How should parents of adult children respond to a son or daughter's sinful lifestyle? If your daughter lives with her boyfriend, should you have them over for dinner together?
13. 1:01:13 {Earning vs. Receiving God’s Love} How do I go from trying to earn God’s love, to just receiving it?
14. 1:03:44 {How to Depend on The Spirit} I know that as believers, we live life through the Holy Spirit and He gives us strength to obey God. But how do we depend on the Holy Spirit's strength? What does that look like lived out?
15. 1:06:17 {Finding Meaning & Contentment} I feel spiritually empty despite recent financial blessings. I’m not lacking, yet discontent. What gives life meaning, and would serving or evangelizing help fulfill me?
16. 1:10:27 {Why Didn’t Jesus Come Sooner?} If Jesus was always God’s “Plan A,” why did He wait? Why not reveal Jesus sooner?
17. 1:14:57 {Explain the Latter Rain} Can you explain the “Latter Rain” in Joel 2:23-29 from a biblical perspective? This seems to be a root of a lot of all this cover-up culture.
18. 1:25:20 {Handling Injustice: Work vs. Church} How should injustice/unethical actions in the workplace be handled in comparison to how we handle sin in the church?
19.1:26:39 {Fig Leaves & Fig Tree: Connection?} Was the fig tree cursed because it was fig leaves that Adam & Eve covered themselves with?
20. 1:28:08 {Romans 13 & Corrupt Government} Many preachers use Romans 13 to promote supporting our current governmental leadership. Yet those same preachers were anti-Biden or anti-Democratic when he was in office. How do we walk that out rightly?

I think these Paul Cain tapes are now in the possession of the "prophet" Chris Reed.
