In this age of Gift Centered-ness.
What is the Spiritual Gift that Scripture uses to ready the users of that set of gifts within a gift, for the Latter Rain ?

I will answer my original question, with an open book quiz. Where are the spiritual gifts that are given - listed in this passage of verses. (hint) it is a rare gift with a circulatory system.
Ephesians 4:
1 ¶ I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 ¶ With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; 5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. 7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. 8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. 9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.) 11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: 14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love. 17 ¶ This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, 18 Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart: 19 Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness. 20 But ye have not so learned Christ; 21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus: 22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; 23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; 24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

Mouse,
People have circulatory systems.
Verse 11 talks about people who are conduits of God's ordained spiritual gifts.
SOP via EGW is a facet of part of the oil, the merits of Christ & His Character & the presence of the Holy Ghost, all these things are explained of how to receive them; by Scripture & SOP.
SOP is the unique SDA spiritual gift that Scripture uses to ready the users of that set of gifts within a gift, for the Latter Rain ?
Buy up all of it you can and begin the adventure of using it as a tutorial, like the 40 day private work of Jesus, tutoring His children just before leaving - helping them get ready for the 10 days in the upper room & beyond. So very much beyond. Beyond their wildest and best dreams and hopes - and ours.

Wow, Ed... better me late than never... sorry You say that you think the SOP is the gift that gets us ready for the latter rain?? I'd say that it would be the early rain baptism of the Holy Spirit that gets us ready for the latter rain... cuz this Gift brings ALL other gifts with it God bless
