Most
recently, H.R. selflessly lit himself on fire during a crusade in order
to prove a point about the heat of Hell. He suffered third degree burns
on his face and chest and had to have his left ear replaced. 250 people
came forward that night and gave their lives to Christ because of H.R.'s
inspirational performance.
H.R. used to ride into Freehold Iowa on horseback when Landover Baptist
Church was nothing more than a two-bit church with 51,000 slouchers for
members. He is still known as the last remaining Christian Cowboy, and
carries a Bible and a gun (both legally, praise God!). His crusades are
old fashioned, saw the branch you're sittin' on, hell-fire and brimstone
country preaching. Folks sometimes have seizures or go into convulsive
shock when H.R. preaches on the torments of hell. He is one of the last
remaining Circuit Riders. He knew Billy Sunday, and won souls with B.R.
Lakin. He was there when Bubba T. Gatlin shot a man dead for insulting
Jesus.
You can bet the bottom line that when H.R.Stone comes into town riding
his horse, wearing his gun, tippin' his cowboy hat, and holdin' his 1611
King James Bible high above his head, hollerin' at the top of his lungs
"Turn or Burn!" Rest assured there's gonna be some poor lost soul who's
gonna give his life over to some old time religion real soon, whether they
like it or not. |
