| Harold Horton Recordings |  Dr. Harold Horton | | Brief Biography: Harold Horton was one of the giants of the Pentecostal Outpouring that took place in the early 1900's. Brother Horton started out as a Methodist minister in England, not believing in healing. Then one of his students took him to a Smith Wigglesworth meeting and Horton was healed of a double hernia. Immediately, he threw out all his sermons and began preaching Pentecost. He left his teaching position at one of England's prestegious universities to spend most of his life teaching at Howard Carter's Hampstead Bible School in England. He helped Howard Carter write his classic book, "Questions and Answers on Spiritual Gifts." Dr. Harold Horton also taught elocution--public speaking and proper word pronunciation--to English actors and other public speakers. You'll no doubt notice his precise pronunciation of words in this recording. Lester Sumrall befriended Horton in England and writes in his book, Pioneers of Faith, "Because of his enthusiasm concerning the baptism of the Holy Spirit, he was known affectionately as "Hallelujah Horton." | Recording Description: | This recording is one of the greatest treasures we have on this website, but if you are not careful, it will go right over your head and you'll say, "How dull!" You'll miss the whole thing. Please read the following biography to prepare yourself to get the full effect of this tremendous recording. |
This sermon was first preached by Horton at the Assemblies of God General Council in 1943, with electrifying results. It was not recorded at the time, but it was taken down and reprinted around the world. In this recording Brother Horton is reading the sermon in the same way a college professor would read a lecture to a class. This is not one of those recordings you can pop in the CD player in your car as you dash here and there. It is rich with spiritual insight and wisdom. When you listen to this, you need to focus on it fully and prayerfully. Listen to it as though you are a college student listening to a lecture from a wise professor. In this recording, Horton pours a lifetime of Holy Spirit wisdom into your hearing. Every sentence spoken on this recording is full of insight. Dr. Harold Horton speaks of the centrality of the Cross to every aspect of the Gospel we preach. He says, "There must be no additions of any sort to aid the work of the Cross. The best of the world, added to the Cross of Christ, fouls it." He asks, "Is there not a shameful lack of the supernatural in our meetings today?" Of the gifts of the Holy Spirit, Horton declares, "The nine supernatural gifts of the Spirit are the decorations designed by God to enhance the Glory of the Cross. They are the only decorations permissible." Now, sit down and give your full attention to this Pentecostal masterpiece: "The Naked Splendour of the Cross" Rev.
