"Latter Rain” Falling in the East: Early-Twentieth-Century Pentecostalism in India and the Debate over Speaking in Tongues [Elektronische Daten] [Gary B. McGee] Looking back at the events that led up to the Azusa Street revival in Los Angeles, California, the foremost revival of the century in terms of global impact, eyewitness Frank Bartleman announced that the "revival was rocked in the cradle of little Wales ... ‘brought up' in India” and then became "full grown” in Los Angeles, California. To the Pentecostal "saints,” as they commonly called themselves in America, the appearance of "Pentecostal” phenomena (for example, visions, dreams, prophecy, glossolalia, and other charismatic gifts) in India confirmed that what the Old Testament prophet Joel had foretold about the "latter rain” outpouring of the Holy Spirit in the end times (Joel 2: 28-29) was being fulfilled simultaneously in other parts of the world. As one songwriter put it, "The latter rain has come, / Upon the parched ground ... The whole wide world around.” Copyright © American Society of Church History 1999 Church History: Studies in Christianity and Culture Cambridge University Press 68/3(1999-09), 648-665 0009-6407 68:3<648 1999 68 CHH https://doi.org/10.2307/3170042 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.2307/3170042 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 100 1- McGee Gary B. professor of church history and Pentecostal studies at Assemblies of God Theological Seminary NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- Church History: Studies in Christianity and Culture Cambridge University Press 68/3(1999-09), 648-665 0009-6407 68:3<648 1999 68 CHH CC0 http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0 nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-cambridge
