1. 0:00Darkness is not an affirmative force.
2. 0:03It simply reoccupies the space vacated by the light.
3. 0:06This is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
4. 0:11It should be uncomfortable for a believer to live as a hypocrite.
5. 0:15Delivery people out of the bondage of mainstream media.
6. 0:18And the philosophies of this world.
7. 0:20God has called you and me to be His ambassador.
8. 0:24Even in this dark moment.
9. 0:26Let's not miss our moment.
10. 0:28And now the Hamilton Corner.
11. 0:33Good evening, everybody.
12. 0:34Welcome to the Hamilton Corner here on American Family Radio.
13. 0:37And those of you who are watching on NRB TV or the podcast listeners, live radio listeners.
14. 0:43Thank you all for tuning into the program.
15. 0:45I'm elated to be with you this evening.
16. 0:47So you say there's a debate tonight, eh?
17. 0:49This is a little bit something going on.
18. 0:51Abraham Hamilton III is my name.
19. 0:53I'm host of the program.
20. 0:54I'm joined by the corny contingent.
21. 0:56As usual, right across from me, my man, 100 grand, Mr. Bobby.
22. 1:00her S. Uh, though he is relocated away from Virginia, he is celebrating, when some Sears
23. 1:06is announcement that she's running for governor there, oh, yes, he's running for governor in
24. 1:11the state of Virginia and we have, in the screening room, produce extraordinary or often
25. 1:15imitated, but never ever ever duplicate it, not successfully. Of course. The real Jay
26. 1:20Mac, ladies and gentlemen, and we are ready to rock and roll with today's edition of the
27. 1:24program at this very moment, many of you. If not, most of you are making your transition
28. 1:28from your part time jobs where you generate an income to your full time jobs where you cultivate
29. 1:33an outcome. And as you do so, I want to remind you to make your transition with intentionality
30. 1:40before there was ever a modern iteration of civil government before the installation of the order
31. 1:45of priests, prophets before any of those other human institutions. The first institutional day
32. 1:50by God was the family with marriage at the center. And I know when you hear me say,
33. 1:55Wait a minute, income generating is a part-time job?
34. 1:58Yes, I know the lexicon our culture uses,
35. 2:00but I want to encourage you to recalibrate that,
36. 2:03to understand we all have responsibilities,
37. 2:05we have duties, we have bills, we have families to provide for,
38. 2:08but that is not synonymous with our identities,
39. 2:11which is why I describe it as our part-time jobs,
40. 2:13our full-time jobs, our outcome cultivation.
41. 2:17We must, we must, we must remember that we will never
42. 2:20be able to out politic, we'll never even be able
43. 2:23to outchurch deficiencies in the home too many times.
44. 2:26And in too many circumstances, we welcome the world's efforts
45. 2:29to pull and push and pull and push and pull and push.
46. 2:32And we developed kind of a practical hierarchy of investment.
47. 2:35I'm not saying we sit down and think,
48. 2:36you know, the most important thing in my life is this.
49. 2:39But practically what we do, we view often things
50. 2:42that transpire outside of our homes
51. 2:44as if they are the ultimate investments.
52. 2:46And I simply want to encourage you to recognize that that's
53. 2:49false.
54. 2:50You have the opportunity to shape destinies,
55. 2:52to build this nation to literally address eternal matters,
56. 2:57starting right in your own home.
57. 2:59So as you are making your transition,
58. 3:00I know a lot of you right now are in your cars,
59. 3:02you're driving, you're going to different places.
60. 3:05Let today be the day.
61. 3:06If you hadn't done it before,
62. 3:07let today be the day where you're making your business
63. 3:10to transform your home into an altar of worship
64. 3:13with the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.
65. 3:14Let today be the day where you lift up the name of Jesus,
66. 3:18you lead your families in worship,
67. 3:19you open the Lord's Word,
68. 3:21It doesn't have to be a liturgical event
69. 3:25where you have incense burning and candles
70. 3:27and crackling in the background.
71. 3:28No, no, you can take 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes,
72. 3:32sing a hymn together, read the Lord's word together,
73. 3:35pray together, but to make that a regular feature of your day,
74. 3:38if not the central feature of your day,
75. 3:40so that it is normalized in your home to worship the Lord.
76. 3:44In fact, when you gather with the Lord's saints
77. 3:46on the Lord's day for worship,
78. 3:48it really should be a gathering for people to do together
79. 3:51but we have been doing all week before we've gathered together.
80. 3:53So as you're making your way home, let today be the day
81. 3:57that you began this enterprise.
82. 3:59And if you have been doing this for quite some time,
83. 4:01do not become weary in well doing.
84. 4:03You will find your family, your children will tell you,
85. 4:07you know, I'm really grateful that my father was intentional
86. 4:11about gathering us around the table
87. 4:13and opening up the Word of God.
88. 4:14I learned to pray at home.
89. 4:16I learned to trust God at home.
90. 4:17This should be our legacy.
91. 4:19this should be our testimony. Praise God.
92. 4:22Now we'll begin the program as we do on a regular basis,
93. 4:25but I'm excited y'all got to excuse me.
94. 4:27I have two of my favorites in studio with me.
95. 4:29I didn't know they were gonna be here this early,
96. 4:31but I won't tell you they are just yet,
97. 4:33because I want you to wait around for it.
98. 4:34But before we get to that,
99. 4:35we begin the program as we do every day
100. 4:37by turning to the Word of God.
101. 4:39A lot of times you find the world attempting
102. 4:42to offer solutions to problems
103. 4:44the Lord has already given us solutions to.
104. 4:46There's a prevalent feeling actually,
105. 4:48actually have a minor in psychology.
106. 4:49So I know a little bit about this.
107. 4:51There's a popular notion of mental health issues
108. 4:54and mental health things, but what you'll find,
109. 4:57most of the time, I can't say conclusively every single time,
110. 5:01but usually when people have issues
111. 5:04with mental fixations of various sorts,
112. 5:06it begins by focusing on a lie.
113. 5:09Unsurprisingly, the word of God has already given us
114. 5:11the antidote, given us the prescription
115. 5:13before there was a disease.
116. 5:15Philippia chapter four is what we're gonna begin
117. 5:17program today of Philippians 4 verses 6 through 8 very, very simply a very familiar passage
118. 5:24of scripture. But I think sometimes we read too quickly to really allow the gravity of
119. 5:28the Lord's Word to come to bear on us. And Philippians 4 verse 6, the passage begins.
120. 5:34And as I start reading some of you going to start quoting it, but it says it's be anxious
121. 5:38for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving. Let your
122. 5:45guests be made known to sorry guests, let your requests be made known to God and the peace
123. 5:51of God which surpasses all comprehension will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ
124. 5:57Jesus.
125. 5:59Verse eight, finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right,
126. 6:06whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute.
127. 6:11is any excellence and if there's anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.
128. 6:18Dwell on these things.
129. 6:20Now it's important for us to remember, man, the word we've got is so rich.
130. 6:24This is one of the epistles, the Apostle Paul pinned while he is incarcerated in Rome.
131. 6:29I love how this, this epistle concludes and Epistle is just a fancy word that means letter.
132. 6:34When Paul says the saints of the Lord Jesus' household greets you, including those among
133. 6:40Caesar's household. He could only articulate those words because what we seem to us as a horrendous
134. 6:46circumstance, Paul viewed it as a gospel imperative and operation to where it was through his incarceration
135. 6:53that he got to proclaim the gospel within Caesar's household. So he was able to make that statement
136. 6:59as a result of what the world may say, man, that's horrible circumstances, but Paul knew he was on
137. 7:03mission. But then he includes this epistle to the church at Philippi, which is the first
138. 7:09Church on the European aspects of the continent.
139. 7:11You may recall Acts chapter 16 talks a little bit about that,
140. 7:14but Paul begins this portion of the scripture that I read by saying,
141. 7:16be anxious for nothing.
142. 7:18Now, why do you think Paul would say that by the Spirit of God?
143. 7:21He's right into Christians in Philippi.
144. 7:23Why would he communicate to believers be anxious for nothing?
145. 7:28Because God is wise.
146. 7:29He knows that though we are believers, many of us,
147. 7:31and those of you who are not believers are tuning in to the program,
148. 7:34you look at the things that are happening around you,
149. 7:36you recognize the uncertainty of environmental
150. 7:39Circumstances, it truly is an incentive for you to recognize first of all that the word of God is true.
151. 7:44But second of all, define safety, salvage, respite, and the eternal King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.
152. 7:50Why would the Lord through the Apostle Paul communicate the believers be anxious for nothing?
153. 7:55Because he knows that though we're in Christ, we have the propensity, the tendency to embrace anxiety of various sorts.
154. 8:04Being believers does not exempt us from navigating life as human beings, but here's the glorious difference
155. 8:11We don't have to navigate life as human beings out of covenant to relationship with God. We can do life in Christ
156. 8:19The Lord said through the apostle Paul to the the cylonians
157. 8:22Do not sorrow as those with no hope. Yeah, we sorrow, but our sorrow doesn't have the same anchor
158. 8:27Nor the same export as those who have no hope
159. 8:30here the Lord is saying to believers because he knows we also face the
160. 8:36temptations to be anxious for anxiety and then the Lord provides the antidote be
161. 8:42anxious for nothing but in everything in the Greek word for everything there is
162. 8:45everything by prayer and supplication but with Thanksgiving now how can you be
163. 8:50thankful while you're praying how can you be thankful while you're supplicated
164. 8:54because the Thanksgiving is not based on your circumstance or even the request
165. 8:58The Thanksgiving is based upon the one to whom the requests are being made, the one whom you
166. 9:03are conferring with.
167. 9:06That is how you can be thankful.
168. 9:09But I want to focus on verse 8.
169. 9:10I'm talking about all these other portions of the text, but verse 8 is what I really want
170. 9:14to focus on because this speaks to a kingdom citizen opportunity exclusively.
171. 9:21When Paul wrote to the believers in Colossae, Colossians chapter 3 verse 1, he said to the
172. 9:24believers, set your affections.
173. 9:27The Greek word for for infections there is fronnao, which means the seat of intellectual
174. 9:32reasoning and emotive capacity.
175. 9:34Set your affections.
176. 9:35If you've been listening to this program for any length of time, you'll recognize that
177. 9:38you've heard me say numerous times.
178. 9:40God has given us emotions, but he has not given us emotions for them to be our leaders.
179. 9:46Emotions are horrible leaders, but they're tremendous followers, horrible generals, but
180. 9:50tremendous foot soldiers.
181. 9:52And as believers, we have the opportunity for the first time in our existence being in
182. 9:56Christ to now tell our emotions what they are to do, what role they are to play, where
183. 10:00they are to sit on the bus of our lives.
184. 10:03This is where you sit.
185. 10:04Set your affections.
186. 10:06The Lord says this through the Apostle Paul leading to the conclusion of this discourse.
187. 10:11Finally brethren, whatever is true, think on these things, whatever is praiseworthy, think
188. 10:19on these things, whatever is honorable, think on these things, whatever is right, think on
189. 10:24these things, much of the problems that arise, and I know it's a popular phrase, our mental
190. 10:30health, because many people allow themselves to feast on, to feed on, and to fixate on lies.
191. 10:37And we don't often recognize it because the lies take root and then the emotions swirl around.
192. 10:42And so the emotions erupt in almost engulf what the root may be, and you're downstream
193. 10:48not even recognizing, man, why am I feeling this way?
194. 10:50Why am I thinking this way?
195. 10:51recognizing that there was a seed of a lie that was planted and you allowed that
196. 10:56lie to germinate. You allowed that lie to take a little bit of root. You allowed
197. 11:00that lie to begin to sprout and grow leaves. But we don't recognize God has
198. 11:05retold us. Lies we should not allow to take root in our minds and our hearts.
199. 11:11What are we to dwell on with our intellectual capacity? What are we to
200. 11:15dwell on with our emotive capacity? Where are we to direct our emotions? We
201. 11:19We should direct our minds and our emotions to what is true.
202. 11:24Whatever is right, whatever is honorable.
203. 11:26So when various stimuli or some sorts come your way, when suggestions come your way, the
204. 11:30first thing we should do is assess them by the Spirit of God.
205. 11:33Wait a minute.
206. 11:34Now, what you say to someone, oh, Otis, you know, from what you say that what you say
207. 11:40that what?
208. 11:41Oh, no, that's a lie.
209. 11:43That's a lie.
210. 11:44But you see, they try to throw a lot of my direction.
211. 11:46Man, I'm showing camp.
212. 11:48I only slammed up good alley-oops.
213. 11:49I ain't catching those wild passes.
214. 11:51You throw a line my way, call me Neo in the Matrix, Dodge.
215. 11:56Dodge.
216. 11:57Whatever is true is where I'm going to direct my mind.
217. 11:59Whatever is honorable is where I'm going to direct my emotions.
218. 12:01Whatever is right.
219. 12:03Whatever is worthy of praise.
220. 12:06Do you realize when you give attention and time to notions, to ideas?
221. 12:12That is a manner, a way that you could be directing praise in that trajectory?
222. 12:19trajectory? No, that's not where we are to be. We have the
223. 12:23wherewithalist believers and wait a minute. And this was such
224. 12:26a fanciful life for the world that never wants to quote
225. 12:29scripture until they quote this out of context, judge not. You
226. 12:33know, if they're from the 17 world, they might say, judge not,
227. 12:36judge not. No, no, believe us have a duty to judge. Psalm one,
228. 12:39walk not in the Council of the ungodly. Psalm one is showing
229. 12:43how believers can be blessed in order to be blessed. One of the
230. 12:46first thing we have to do is identify what is and what is not
231. 12:48Godly. And if something is ungodly, the Lord commands us not to walk in that
232. 12:53council. Guess what you've just done when you obey that text? You have judged.
233. 12:58The scripture commands that simply to judge rightly. That's all. And to make sure
234. 13:02that the judgment that we apply externally is the same metric we apply
235. 13:06internally. We don't have a sliding scale. We don't, I won't apply to Jeff, a
236. 13:10standard of living that I don't apply to me. I don't look at myself and go,
237. 13:13get myself a pass. But then look at Jeff, Jeff, Jeff, look, Jeff, your eyebrows
238. 13:17sideways, man. That's a 45 degree angle doesn't belong there. No, that I had the same metric
239. 13:22of evaluation that I applied to myself as I applied to others. That judgment is not only
240. 13:27something we do for external facing situations, we apply the same thing internally. So when
241. 13:33notions arise, stimuli arise, suggestions arise, thoughts arise, the first thing we should
242. 13:39do, wait a minute, is that true? Is that true? I told you guys before one time, there was
243. 13:44a lady who called into the show and I thought she was calling and come on there. I was taking
244. 13:48in college that day, but she didn't want to come on there.
245. 13:51She just wanted to tell the brother in the screening room,
246. 13:54that OA-Bram, all he does on the air is lie.
247. 13:59He is just lying.
248. 14:00I want to have a dialogue with her.
249. 14:01No way can you show me what you're talking about?
250. 14:03Well, of course.
251. 14:04No, she didn't want to have the dialogue on the air
252. 14:06because she may not have liked what I said,
253. 14:09but what I said wasn't a lie.
254. 14:11So I had the opportunity in that moment to see,
255. 14:13wait a minute, am I gonna let this?
256. 14:14Am I saying that?
257. 14:16No, she's not telling the truth.
258. 14:18So I'm not gonna allow that suggestion to take root.
259. 14:21Again, Neo and the Matrix,
260. 14:23I'm gonna move on to the next thing.
261. 14:25And we, in terms of having mental acuity,
262. 14:28fortification in our thought life,
263. 14:30we have a mechanism to do so when we direct our minds
264. 14:33as an exponent of our worship,
265. 14:35field, devotion and commitment.
266. 14:37Whatever is true, whatever is honorable,
267. 14:40whatever is right, whatever is pure, what about that,
268. 14:44whatever is pure, whatever is lovely,
269. 14:47Whatever's of good repute, if there's any excellence,
270. 14:50or anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.
271. 14:55The Lord empowers us by His grace through His word,
272. 14:58to win in our minds.
273. 15:00Meet Kelsey.
274. 15:01When she found out she was pregnant,
275. 15:03she wasn't sure where to turn.
276. 15:05But after meeting with the counselors
277. 15:06at a pre-born network clinic who loved and supported her,
278. 15:10and after hearing her baby's heartbeat
279. 15:11on a free ultrasound, she chose life.
280. 15:14When a mother looks at her child through a sonogram, it does something to you.
281. 15:27You know, I ended up deciding to keep my son, who is now five years old today.
282. 15:33He's amazing.
283. 15:34He brings absolute joy to my heart.
284. 15:36I could not imagine life without him.
285. 15:39Not only did they help me save his life, they saved my life.
286. 15:44By introducing a woman to her baby on ultrasound, a baby's chance at life doubles.
287. 15:49If you have the means, would you consider a leadership gift to save babies in a big way?

292. 16:13Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner Abraham Hamilton the third here. I am excited to have
293. 16:29in studio. I said it already to my favorites to my right. I have none other than our brother
294. 16:37Rick Green known nationally as America's Constitution coach. He's a former Texas state
295. 16:42representative. Sorry about that. Don't hold that against me. National speaker, author
296. 16:48and radio host. You can hear him here on the American Family Radio Network, hosting
297. 16:53AFA at the core. I don't know your schedule though. Tuesday, Thursday. Tuesday's and Thursday's.
298. 16:58All right. He's the founder. He let some guy named Walker Wahlman do Monday, Wednesday,
299. 17:01Friday. I don't know who that guy is. I don't know either. Maybe did he have ID? We card him
300. 17:06every time. Rick is the founder and chairman of Patriot Academy and elite leadership training
301. 17:12program raising up a generation, a new generation of world changing champions of liberty.
302. 17:18Now I have another guest but I'll wait to give her a proper introduction because I'm gonna
303. 17:22start with Rick and I wanna begin the program with just inviting Rick to share a bit about
304. 17:27Patriot Academy.
305. 17:28What is Patriot Academy?
306. 17:29First of all, man, that opening was fire.
307. 17:31Oh.
308. 17:32I mean, the Matrix, Otis, Philippians all in one segment.
309. 17:35I mean, Hamlet Corner's always better than Hamilton the musical, I'm just saying.
310. 17:40I do have to say, I wish I could articulate like you did at the very beginning.
311. 17:43I've always said it in my country bumping way that even though it's important what's happening
312. 17:48at the White House and the State House, it's not near as important as what's happening at
313. 17:51your house.
314. 17:52And that's essentially what you were saying.
315. 17:53Yes.
316. 17:54You know, we get all just spun up over everything that's happening and we should be engaged.
317. 17:57We should be righteously angry, but we forget the most important.
318. 18:00Are we disciplining those kids and grandkids at home?
319. 18:03Are we actually perpetuating this value system?
320. 18:06Anyway, it was just so good, man.
321. 18:08No, no, absolutely right because, oh man, you got me going already.
322. 18:13The, the, the, the advanced, I'll use the football analogy, you know, the, the moving the ball
323. 18:18down the field, so to speak with a, with the regressive, intentional Marxist overthrow
324. 18:23the United States of America is only as effective as a populace is ignorant to allow it to transpire.
325. 18:31You know, the ever-larging augmentation of the Leviathan state only occurs with a corresponding
326. 18:41ignorance of the American populace. That's the Petri dish where bad government grows.
327. 18:46It does. Civic and biblical ignorance. And if you let that happen, then the virus of bad government
328. 18:50grows as we've seen happen. And I love your language too. I mean, even I said this to a group the other
329. 18:55night, we welcomed them and we were doing this dinner and I started with, we're doing all these
330. 18:59things to stop the global communist revolution. And I said, depending on how that phrase set
331. 19:03with you, we'll tell you whether or not the next hour is going to be miserable or you're
332. 19:07going to join our cause. I mean, because if you recognize what's actually happening, and
333. 19:11that you gave me a softball to give a commercial for Page for Academy and I missed it, but I'll
334. 19:15do it real quick. We're basically a 24 year organization that is designed to help citizens
335. 19:21equip and inspire them to live out their liberty. So we do constitution classes, we teach youth
336. 19:26how to be leaders in whatever arena they're going to be called to, whatever God's brought
337. 19:30them into, whether it's business or politics, entertainment, journalism, whatever it might
338. 19:33be.
339. 19:34And so we're really about getting back to the founding principles and those basic ideas of
340. 19:39limited government, individual liberties, free enterprise and timeless truths.
341. 19:43You know, it's amazing that you're saying that because I'm just, there's so many thoughts
342. 19:49going through my mind.
343. 19:50A lot of people don't even realize the connected between adherence to a biblical worldview and
344. 19:56maintaining this individual, this experiment in individual
345. 20:00liberty that is our constitutional republic. I don't think
346. 20:02people understand that. Like the notion of the social contract
347. 20:05comes out of the Mayflower Compact, you know, the ideas about
348. 20:09individual liberty are related to the Protestant revelations
349. 20:13concerning the individual's capacity to read, learn, and discern
350. 20:16will of God through scripture. Like we don't recognize the
351. 20:18connection between those two ideas, which is why, you know, George
352. 20:22Washington writes in his farewell address, religion and morality
353. 20:25are indispensable supports.
354. 20:26So you can't have.
355. 20:27In vain with that man.
356. 20:29Claim the virtual patriotism
357. 20:30would work to subvert.
358. 20:31I'm telling you, bro, you are.
359. 20:32This is it.
360. 20:33Just this last weekend, we were in Colorado
361. 20:35and David Barton was doing a presentation on Taylor II cities.
362. 20:38And he was showing the difference between Jamestown
363. 20:40and what the pilgrims did.
364. 20:42So in 1619, you've got a professing Christian group
365. 20:46that doesn't actually follow the Bible.
366. 20:48And then in 1620, you get the pilgrims
367. 20:50who are actually biblical Christians.
368. 20:51And as they're trying socialism
369. 20:53and then reading the Bible and go,
370. 20:54Wait a minute, this socialism thing is not what the Bible describes.
371. 20:58So they went from socialism and starving to death to actually being blessed whenever they
372. 21:03went to capitalism and private property.
373. 21:05And anyway, he went through the trajectory difference of having the Bible as the foundation and how
374. 21:10that equals liberty versus without the Bible and not following biblical principles leads
375. 21:14to slavery.
376. 21:15So it is exactly the linchpin that is missing from our culture.
377. 21:20So these people that say they want freedom, they want prosperity, they want due process,
378. 21:24They want all of these things.
379. 21:25They have to understand where it actually comes from.
380. 21:27And that's why even people like Elon Musk are now calling themselves cultural Christians
381. 21:31because they're recognizing, as Ben Franklin did, that the result, you Christians, well,
382. 21:35you sure make good neighbors.
383. 21:37And so they're recognizing the need for that in the culture.
384. 21:39I'm hoping there's an awakening on that right now.
385. 21:41Well said.
386. 21:42It's a host of people claiming cultural Christianity.
387. 21:45And yet people who are, as you say, wisdom chases them, but they've always been much faster.
388. 21:51Like Richard Dawkins would say, well, I love the cathedrals in the Christmas.
389. 21:54but tell me anything about Jesus is that Luke Chris is like,
390. 21:59give me the results, but I don't want the formula itself.
391. 22:02Yeah, I use analogies to plumber.
392. 22:04I want the running water.
393. 22:06That's good.
394. 22:07No, forget the pipes and stuff.
395. 22:10I don't need the pipes and stuff.
396. 22:11I want the water to run.
397. 22:12I'm using that.
398. 22:13I'll be credit the first time.
399. 22:14That's it.
400. 22:15Use the way.
401. 22:16All right, you are here, AFA at home.
402. 22:19You are participating in a wonderful episode.
403. 22:22I'm looking forward to.
404. 22:24What is AFE at home?
405. 22:25Well, we just had a great discussion around,
406. 22:27kind of around the table,
407. 22:28around the nights of the round tables,
408. 22:30what it felt like,
409. 22:31because you had all,
410. 22:32I was just actually humbled
411. 22:34at the great minds that were seated around me.
412. 22:36I tried to stay quiet,
413. 22:37but you know me,
414. 22:38if I couldn't do it.
415. 22:39But it was really just,
416. 22:40okay, where are we?
417. 22:41How did we get into this mess?
418. 22:42And what's gonna happen in a few weeks in November?
419. 22:44And what can we likely expect,
420. 22:46depending on who wins the election?
421. 22:47So a lot of what we talked about
422. 22:48is actually what you were just describing.
423. 22:50And that is, okay,
424. 22:52why do we want to elect people
425. 22:54that will bring back these biblical principles.
426. 22:56And what do we need to do in Washington DC?
427. 22:57As you and I have talked about before,
428. 22:59we've got to return to federalism,
429. 23:00we've got to get the feds out of a lot of these things
430. 23:02in our lives.
431. 23:03And to do that, we have to understand
432. 23:05how the Constitution Republic works.
433. 23:06So even down to the basics of democracy
434. 23:08versus the constitutional republic,
435. 23:10and then also talking for Christians
436. 23:12to actually look at this election,
437. 23:13not as a Trump versus Harris, but a value system,
438. 23:17a value system and a worldview
439. 23:19and a 9,000 appointment army that's gonna go into Washington DC,
440. 23:24what's it gonna look like?
441. 23:24Is it gonna be one that restores Liberty
442. 23:26or is it gonna be one that takes away Liberty?
443. 23:28Because people get caught up in the personalities
444. 23:30and we forget that we're actually voting for policies,
445. 23:32not just a personality.
446. 23:34You know, it's interesting that just before that,
447. 23:35you know, the debate is tonight between
448. 23:37Kamala Harris and President Trump
449. 23:41and miraculously, policies appeared
450. 23:44on Kamala Harris's campaign website.
451. 23:46But it's been reported that they kind of copied and paced
452. 23:51from Joe Biden's 2020 campaign website
453. 23:53because the metadata is clear has the markings
454. 23:55from Joe Biden's 2020 website,
455. 23:57even to the place of having tags on a website initially
456. 24:00that said, give here to get Joe reelected.
457. 24:03Oh, wow.
458. 24:04Yeah, yeah.
459. 24:06What would you do?
460. 24:07But it's a new way forward, Abe.
461. 24:08Come on, it's a new way.
462. 24:10Yeah. I don't know who's been in charge
463. 24:12for the last four years.
464. 24:13I know what to do, Vice President's Mansion.
465. 24:13Pay no attention to it.
466. 24:14You're way forward.
467. 24:15Pay no attention to it.
468. 24:16That's right.
469. 24:17What should people listen for?
470. 24:19Some of the things they should listen for tonight
471. 24:21if they tune into the debate.
472. 24:22And I know some of the audience is going to say,
473. 24:24Abe, that's what we have you for.
474. 24:26You're going to listen to debate and come tell us what happened
475. 24:28because we don't want to do so.
476. 24:29But for those who are listening, what are some of the things
477. 24:31that they should listen for to illustrate for them
478. 24:35or to drive home for them the divergence in values
479. 24:38as they consider how they will engage civically this fall?
480. 24:41Well, normally a debate of this magnitude,
481. 24:44one debate for the presidential nominees
482. 24:47would have a huge huge impact on the election.
483. 24:49I think it's going to be a nothing burger, honestly,
484. 24:52because I think ABC is going to do everything they can to cover up her left wing, you know,
485. 24:57actual positions and what she really believes. And if she's just, if she can stand the whole
486. 25:01time and keep from doing a word salad over the 90 minutes, which would be a miracle, but
487. 25:06the expectations are so low for her. And you know how debates are, it's all an expectations
488. 25:10game. And the expectations are so low for her. I think if she gets a couple of her memorized
489. 25:15sound bites in, that's what we'll see for the next two weeks on the reporting of the debate.
490. 25:20If Donald Trump makes any mistake at all,
491. 25:22that's what we'll see the whole time.
492. 25:23So I think if you can at least glean
493. 25:27a little bit of actual policy,
494. 25:29if he can make her,
495. 25:30even though he's not supposed to actually ask her questions,
496. 25:32I think he has to be masterful about his statements
497. 25:34leading to questions that if she doesn't respond to it
498. 25:37is left in the voters mind,
499. 25:39if he can do that on some of the major issues
500. 25:41like the border policies and the transgenderism
501. 25:44and how bad her vice presidential choice is,
502. 25:47I think people can see a difference.
503. 25:48If that doesn't happen,
504. 25:49and it's just kind of a tit for tat.
505. 25:51I think there probably won't be really a winner
506. 25:52or loser tonight.
507. 25:53It won't be like the Biden Trump debate
508. 25:55from a few weeks ago.
509. 25:56Yeah, and I really just think that debate really was
510. 26:00just a revelation of who many of us who've been following
511. 26:03and who have known Mr. Biden to be all over that
512. 26:06in January when he's inaugurated.
513. 26:07It's not like it's all of a sudden,
514. 26:09he can't put a sentence together.
515. 26:10It's kind of been that way for a while now folks.
516. 26:12Yeah, no, in fact, a lot of us,
517. 26:14I had to eat a little bit of crow
518. 26:15because now I did say there's no way
519. 26:17he'll be the nominee in November.
520. 26:18I said that four years ago.
521. 26:18So I knew he wasn't gonna be the nominee,
522. 26:20but I didn't think he had last a year.
523. 26:21So I had to eat some curro on that.
524. 26:23The fact that they were able to do the weekend
525. 26:24at Bernie's routine for three and a half years
526. 26:26was pretty impressive, unfortunately, for the country,
527. 26:29but they pulled it off.
528. 26:30Yeah, and the thing that's galling to me is,
529. 26:32it seems that there's a collective yawn in our body politic.
530. 26:36And similar to you, Bobby can tell you,
531. 26:38I said it for years ago, he wouldn't be the nominee.
532. 26:39It was just plain, but the fact that we have a person
533. 26:44who has publicly expressed an inability
534. 26:48to campaign for the presidency, yet we have a societal collective yawn considering the
535. 26:53fact that who is running the country now?
536. 26:56Yeah.
537. 26:57Yeah.
538. 26:58That to me is an egregious indictment on both the American proveder reporting apparatus,
539. 27:04but also the American body politics.
540. 27:07There should be a bit more, shall I say, consternation displayed?
541. 27:12Absolutely, man.
542. 27:13And the fact that you can't run for the presidency, so how can you be the president right now?
543. 27:17And how can she not have to answer the question,
544. 27:21why did you tell the world that he was perfectly fine?
545. 27:24Right, the very same, even on the on the profit part
546. 27:27that you're talking about, the very same media
547. 27:29that was saying how perfectly fine he was,
548. 27:31how quickly they switched when it was on display
549. 27:34for the world during the debate,
550. 27:35and yet then it went silent.
551. 27:37And the idea that they're not yet
552. 27:38invoking the 25th Amendment,
553. 27:40I guess it's just, I actually thought,
554. 27:42I mean, again, I've been wrong so many times, I guess,
555. 27:45I thought for sure they would do that
556. 27:47so that she could look presidential by being in the position,
557. 27:50and so that she could be guaranteed to be number 47.
558. 27:53But I guess they're too afraid that she will look foolish
559. 27:56at some point in that process.
560. 27:58She'll be forced to do media interviews,
561. 28:00forced to actually be president,
562. 28:02which would look bad for her,
563. 28:04assuming her performance would be lousy.
564. 28:05It is not only not to be asked a question,
565. 28:08like in the curated propaganda piece done by CNN
566. 28:13in the interview between her and her emotional support governor,
567. 28:16She was 18 of the 45 minutes that we actually got to see.
568. 28:19Yeah. And you really can't say what was the order
569. 28:21of the interview because it was cut and paste.
570. 28:23And yeah, but she was asked by Danabash
571. 28:28and specifically stated before the question,
572. 28:30you were the most aggressive directing this question
573. 28:32to Kamala Harris.
574. 28:33You were the most aggressive in saying that
575. 28:36Joseph Robin Ed Biden was fine.
576. 28:38Do you regret saying that to the American people?
577. 28:41She said no.
578. 28:42Right. Right.
579. 28:43She said no.
580. 28:45And so what is the most obvious follow-up question
581. 28:47to that in the world?
582. 28:49Well, if he's fine, and you don't regret that he's fine
583. 28:51and telling everybody he's fine,
584. 28:53why are you running now?
585. 28:54Wait, what are those words mean follow-up question?
586. 28:56What is that?
587. 28:57Yeah.
588. 28:58Do they still do that?
589. 28:59I don't know if you've just come from Venezuela
590. 29:02and you flew from Aurora, Colorado, but in English?
591. 29:06Yeah.
592. 29:07It means, yeah.
593. 29:09And nobody asking any questions
594. 29:12that everybody is fine with that.
595. 29:13You know, I think though, the good thing is everybody's, everybody's not fine with it.
596. 29:19Average Joe out there maybe.
597. 29:20But those who are intellectually honest are done.
598. 29:23That's why RFK came over, right?
599. 29:24When you watch his interviews and he talks about it, it literally was a switch that flipped
600. 29:28in him whenever he realized the nominee for a major party in the United States is unwilling
601. 29:36to do interviews, is unwilling to go out and be an actual candidate.
602. 29:39And I cannot stand by and let this happen.
603. 29:42He's definitely not alone. I mean, we see so many people coming our way because of that.
604. 29:45So I do think there's major consequences for them doing this, whether or not they pull it off.
605. 29:50And maybe that's their game, right? If we can pull this off and then have the levers of power at that
606. 29:54point, we shut down free speech even more and the tyrannical, you know, move the moves come even faster.
607. 30:01But I'm hoping enough people are going, this just, man, this just doesn't smell right all the way.
608. 30:06And it not only does it not smell right, the things that are concerning me about this,
609. 30:12and I truly, truly, truly pray that it's concerning more of the American populace, because when you
610. 30:17have the combination of things, with this overwhelming amount of information, one of the major purposes
611. 30:23of having an inundation of information, regardless of its merit. A lot of the stuff is silly, some
612. 30:28of the stuff is substantive, but having so much, it keeps people distracted. We often talk about
613. 30:33a pretension spans with children, but adults have the same problem with the pretension spans.
614. 30:36But when you see the coalescing of events, so Joseph Robinette can't run for president,
615. 30:41but he is the Oval Office occupant.
616. 30:44His vice president is running for president,
617. 30:47but she's incapable of talking to the American people
618. 30:51through interviews.
619. 30:53And so what's revealed is that the reason why
620. 30:57there's no need for a functional president
621. 30:59or a functional candidate for the office
622. 31:02is that the apparatus is created a self-existing mechanism.
623. 31:06So we have an unaccountable shadow functioning leadership.
624. 31:10Yeah, not just a mentoring candidate.
625. 31:12We have a mentoring in White House.
626. 31:14Yes.
627. 31:15The entire thing.
628. 31:16And understanding that, well, Congress has not been
629. 31:19functioned for quite some time.
630. 31:20We're being governed by an unaccountable set of bureaucratic
631. 31:24entities.
632. 31:25And these things are just on autopilot.
633. 31:26No matter who's the figurehead,
634. 31:28they are continuing to advance.
635. 31:30It should be alarming.
636. 31:32A lot of it's so hard to believe the coping mechanism is
637. 31:35to check out and not be a part of it, right?
638. 31:37So it's like, we're seeing things right now on our watch
639. 31:40in our generation that we never thought would happen in America, and people have to realize
640. 31:44it is actually happening, and you do have to start paying attention to do something about
641. 31:48it.
642. 31:49My last question, because I'm running out of time, and I'm pretty sure I didn't tell you
643. 31:52about this question beforehand.
644. 31:53So if I need to give more detail, I will.
645. 31:55But I'm pretty sure you've been following Arizona's efforts to pass election integrity
646. 32:00measures.
647. 32:01Yeah.
648. 32:02And they passed a law that had two very simple components of it.
649. 32:04And if you're going to register to vote in the state of Arizona, you have to prove US citizenship.
650. 32:10Imagine what an idea right second component if you're gonna cast an absentee ballot in the state
651. 32:14You have to show proof of citizenship one part was upheld by the Supreme Court the other was not what does that say about our country?
652. 32:19Oh, man. Oh shit, they were broken
653. 32:22It is truly broken and that's why we have to repair the breach
654. 32:25It is it's a monumental effort, but we will not give up we will not step out
655. 32:30We will not curl up in the fetal position. We're gonna pick up the pieces and rebuild
656. 32:33Thank you so much America's Constitution. Oh, it's good to see your brother episode six a F.A at home
657. 32:38Our brother Rick Green is going to be there and my next guest will be there. When is this episode gonna be available on AFA stream October

675. 33:47The Hamilton Quarter podcast and one-minute commentaries are available at
676. 33:52EFR.net back to the Hamilton Quarter on American Family Radio.
677. 33:58Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton, the third here.
678. 34:01I am joining the studio now by another one of my favorites,
679. 34:04dynamic radio host, former long-time Fox News contributor,
680. 34:08former host of Sandy Rios in the morning here in American Family Radio current host of Sandy
681. 34:14Rios 24-7 which you can find wherever you get your podcasts including on the AFR's podcast
682. 34:20network.
683. 34:21My guest now is the inestable, irreplaceable Sandy Rios.
684. 34:28Thank you, A. This is so sweet, you know, it's really sweet.
685. 34:31It's great to be with you.
686. 34:32I missed you.
687. 34:33It's great to be with you.
688. 34:34And by the way, you look so handsome.
689. 34:35Well.
690. 34:36You have a camera though, right?
691. 34:37and sure as beautiful i'm not used to that
692. 34:40now you're good
693. 34:41see there you are right there you're right now i'm on okay i should fix my
694. 34:44makeup
695. 34:45i thought
696. 34:46you know i won't be on camera on podcast and i did on the morning show either
697. 34:50because
698. 34:51i'm a girl you know it's such a pain
699. 34:53and i like to be you know pull my hair and scratch and get mad and put a pencil
700. 34:58by my you know
701. 34:59and i know it doesn't go doesn't play well on cameras up
702. 35:02so when you said something that that unfortunately this day and ages has
703. 35:05become a provocative notion. You said you're a girl. Can you define that for us here?
704. 35:10Oh no, I have to look at a picture. What do you remember Kamala? What she introduced herself
705. 35:17at these events as, I'm Kamala Harris and my pronouns are, I don't know what she'd say,
706. 35:23he, she, they, whatever she said, she went through the whole mantra. And it was, you know,
707. 35:29This is like, you know, the Mad Hatter.
708. 35:33I mean, Alice in Wonderland and just all the ridiculous,
709. 35:36but so I don't want pronouns, but I am a girl.
710. 35:39Yes. And I'm a she.
711. 35:41Wow. Well, I'm grateful that you have clarity.
712. 35:43In marriage to a man, who's a man.
713. 35:46Well, you know, that's provocative too.
714. 35:47I know, I know.
715. 35:49But we've always been, you know, what is that?
716. 35:52There come a time when telling the truth
717. 35:54would be an act of bravery.
718. 35:58Bravery, yeah, yeah, it's a great.
719. 35:59Yeah.
720. 36:00Yeah.
721. 36:01So you're here, similar to our brother Rick, you are a part of AFA at home, episode six.
722. 36:05Yes.
723. 36:06That'll be available on October 17th.
724. 36:08You all were discussing, I was not a part of that.
725. 36:10I missed that.
726. 36:11Sorry.
727. 36:12We missed you.
728. 36:13But you guys are discussing this.
729. 36:17Best way, let me say it.
730. 36:18Grandma say you don't have a nice, I don't say nothing at all.
731. 36:20This unusual election season, you have been on the front lines for quite some time.
732. 36:29You have been a part of battles in DC.
733. 36:30You have been AFAs, woman on the streets, so to speak, for governmental affairs, our government
734. 36:37affairs director for a number of years.
735. 36:42What do you see presented to the American people in light of the choice we are being
736. 36:46forced to make between the divergent views of President Trump and Vice President Kamala
737. 36:54Harris?
738. 36:55Well, there couldn't be more of a difference, really.
739. 36:57It's like so stark.
740. 36:59It's a hurtling off the cliff and just a reasonable worldview.
741. 37:04I think President Trump, really, in many ways is more conservative and actually does conservative.
742. 37:10Things more than any other conservative president I've ever seen.
743. 37:14In spite of the fact that I'm not sure if he's a Christian, I don't think he doesn't claim
744. 37:18it.
745. 37:19I do think when he got shot there was a change in him.
746. 37:21I sense a change now.
747. 37:22But I'm never going to say he certainly hasn't been.
748. 37:25And when he wasn't, he was championing freedom of speech.
749. 37:31Our freedom of speech, our right to worship the way
750. 37:34we wanted to and to defend the churches, life and all of that.
751. 37:39So, and Colin Harris, you know, really hates life.
752. 37:42I have to tell you, she believes in abortion
753. 37:44for all nine months when she was attorney general
754. 37:46in California, that's when the Planned Parenthood videos
755. 37:50were leaked by James O'Keefe.
756. 37:53And no, David Delaidain.
757. 37:56Yeah, and David Delaidain was in California.
758. 37:58And so they broke into his house.
759. 38:02They took all of his devices.
760. 38:04They confiscated all of his tapes
761. 38:06because he had more that were even worse.
762. 38:08We saw some of them where they were talking
763. 38:10about speculating buying a Lamborghini
764. 38:12with the money they would get from selling baby body parts.
765. 38:15You know, eyes, brains, it's just, it's horrific.
766. 38:18Okay, so what does Kamala do?
767. 38:20They break in.
768. 38:21Then she finds David hundreds of thousands of dollars and charges him with a number of
769. 38:25felonies.
770. 38:26He's been in court ever since that broke.
771. 38:27So that's Kamala Harris.
772. 38:28She got an award from Planned Parenthood for all her fine work.
773. 38:32So that's what we're talking about as opposed to President Trump who appointed pro-life
774. 38:36judges and Roe vs. Wade was overturned.
775. 38:38That's simplistic, but I'm just telling you that's the contrast.
776. 38:42So, and of course, Abe, I could go on and on.
777. 38:46I mean, if you want to look at the contrast, well, there is so much at stake.
778. 38:51I know that Christians, and it's nothing wrong with this, but we think of our role in politics
779. 38:55in these moral issues, we have a kind of little box that we do.
780. 38:59It's abortion or the homosexuality used to be that now, it's transgenderism and homosexuality
781. 39:06too.
782. 39:07God hasn't changed his mind.
783. 39:10But on that issue, Kamala Harris believes that we should taxpayer dollars should fund
784. 39:15transgender surgeries for illegal immigrants coming across the border.
785. 39:19My Tim Waltz said I made Minnesota a sanctuary state for transgenders.
786. 39:26And specifically for minors?
787. 39:28For minors.
788. 39:29For minors to get treatment without their parents' notification?
789. 39:31Yes, and then...
790. 39:32And refusing to notify them.
791. 39:33And part of that, part of his initiative was to take custody or the government to take
792. 39:39custody of kids in Minnesota whose parents did not want them to have whatever counseling,
793. 39:48hormone treatment and probably the surgery itself.
794. 39:51So taking away parental rights on that.
795. 39:53I mean, okay, so there's the moral issues,
796. 39:55but Abe, there's so much more.
797. 39:56I mean, you know, I always say that,
798. 40:00the Bible says that if you don't take care of your family,
799. 40:03you're worse than an infidel.
800. 40:05Well, that's an infidel is what the Muslims hate.
801. 40:08It's kind of a term that is old King James, but it's bad.
802. 40:12It's like you're an outcast.
803. 40:13So we have families like you've got a Hamilton family,
804. 40:16and boy, do you have a family.
805. 40:18You get the cutest kids in the world.
806. 40:19And I know there are other Hamilton's that brother,
807. 40:22I don't know if you have brothers and sisters,
808. 40:23but you have a big family.
809. 40:25And we busy your church,
810. 40:26we'll definitely increase your church population
811. 40:29by at least 10%.
812. 40:30And you love your family, you take care of them.
813. 40:34But America is also our family.
814. 40:37It's our extended family.
815. 40:38We are neighbors, we live together,
816. 40:41we are send our kids to the schools, they play together.
817. 40:46It's where we work.
818. 40:48We are a family and we,
819. 40:50it doesn't matter about race or anything,
820. 40:53or even religion, we are an American family.
821. 40:56And so we're in scripture,
822. 40:57could you ever justify that you would not love
823. 41:00and care for your family,
824. 41:03even if they don't have the same last name as you have.
825. 41:05And so I just think we're talking about,
826. 41:09first of all, an invasion right now,
827. 41:12and to be really specific,
828. 41:14If you had someone who was trying to break into your house, I know what you'd...
829. 41:17I don't...
830. 41:18You don't have to tell me.
831. 41:19I'm sure you've got a way.
832. 41:21You're not...
833. 41:22There's no way.
834. 41:23It'll be over your dead body that they will hurt your children.
835. 41:25Okay, so here we have our American family.
836. 41:28And Bruce and I were in San Diego about a month ago, and there were Chinese, single Chinese
837. 41:35men, military age, taking boats, in boats, ramming up on the shore, climbing up an embankment
838. 41:43straight up, but it's a neighborhood.
839. 41:47You see in the video I saw a woman pushing her baby in a buggy.
840. 41:51It's a neighborhood with houses.
841. 41:54These, they're running and black SUVs are picking them up.
842. 41:58They're loading them up and taking them off.
843. 42:00We estimate that there are tens of thousands.
844. 42:04There is a quantifying number on that that my military friends have told me, but it's
845. 42:07like tens of thousands of military men from China in this country.
846. 42:13What are they doing?
847. 42:14I wonder if they just want, are they coming for social security?
848. 42:18I don't think so.
849. 42:20None of us think so.
850. 42:21And so, and then we have Gihadi's coming across the border.
851. 42:24We have Hamas telling us they're going to do here what they did in Israel.
852. 42:29So if you are not concerned about that, then don't vote or vote for Kamala because they're
853. 42:37fine with that.
854. 42:38There's no way they're going to close that border.
855. 42:39I don't care what she says.
856. 42:40remember Bernie Sanders, as you said earlier, said in a speech that she's saying now she
857. 42:46wants the wall. She hates the wall. There's a video clip after a video clip of her calling
858. 42:51that Trump's medieval vanity project. Exactly. And worse. And she just said that, you know,
859. 42:57mocked him. And now suddenly she's saying now that we're what a month out, two months,
860. 43:01I guess, what early voting is already starting in some states. So we're here. But remember
861. 43:06Bernie said she hasn't changed your value. So and he says she's being pragmatic and doing
862. 43:10what she needs to be collected.
863. 43:12So she wants an open border.
864. 43:13She's still the vice president, even though that just doesn't seem,
865. 43:17doesn't seem like she is, does it, Abe?
866. 43:19I mean, she has that title, but what the heck is she doing?
867. 43:22Nothing. We talked about that. Yeah.
868. 43:24So we've got the national security.
869. 43:28We also have the economy.
870. 43:30I think about the jobs report just came out last the end of last week, I think it was.
871. 43:35It's American-born people.
872. 43:39Their job numbers went down like 1.2 million, something like that.
873. 43:43And illegal immigrants gained almost 2 million jobs.
874. 43:48And the Biden administration, whoever they are administration,
875. 43:54now they're boasting that the job numbers are up,
876. 43:57but they're not up for American-born citizens.
877. 44:00And so this I ask people, what are your kids going to do?
878. 44:05for jobs.
879. 44:07The manufacturing is gone.
880. 44:09Small businesses are closing, restaurants are closing.
881. 44:12There are no jobs, there's no professions.
882. 44:15I know lots of people that are very qualified
883. 44:17that can't find professional work.
884. 44:19Now, there's a sector, a lot of people can't,
885. 44:21they've got a niche,
886. 44:23but what's the future for your kids?
887. 44:26When Kamala Harris says that she's for the middle class,
888. 44:29that's an abject lie.
889. 44:33I can tell you right now that communist,
890. 44:35And she is from my communist background, her parents,
891. 44:38her father's a communist, and she's from that background.
892. 44:43Now a lot of people don't know, her father, Mr. Harris,
893. 44:45is a Marxist economics professor.
894. 44:47They try to call her the girl from Oakland,
895. 44:49but frankly, he's a Jamaican Marxist economics professor.
896. 44:53Her mom is Indian.
897. 44:55She lived in, went to school in Berkeley,
898. 44:58then lived in Canada.
899. 45:00She lived in Canada.
900. 45:00She never really lived in Oakland.
901. 45:02So it really goes from Berkeley to Canada
902. 45:06to Howard University back to San Francisco.
903. 45:10Yes.
904. 45:11Yes, so, and there's a lot of connections
905. 45:13other like brother-in-law's and all this stuff,
906. 45:15with Marxism.
907. 45:16But my point is that with Marxism,
908. 45:18one of the chief goals of the Marxist
909. 45:20is to destroy the middle class.
910. 45:23Why would they do that?
911. 45:24Because the middle class is us.
912. 45:26You know, we're the ones who go to church,
913. 45:29we pay our tithe, we support conservative organizations
914. 45:32like AFA, we fight.
915. 45:34We have enough resources that we can act on our principles
916. 45:37that poor people can't, the rich don't want to.
917. 45:40Yeah, and it leads to, it's a touchstone repeat of Marxism
918. 45:44because decimation in middle class is prescribed
919. 45:48because you have to crush any modicum of independence.
920. 45:50That's right, or opposition.
921. 45:52Yes, and it will only come from a broad middle class
922. 45:56because the elite are very narrow, minority.
923. 46:01And so those who are deprived of resources efficiently to be able to assert any level
924. 46:06of independence, then they serve no opposition either.
925. 46:09And so you're able to advance your will unimpeded.
926. 46:13So you're facing an issue of potentially losing your children unless you allow them to have
927. 46:18transgender surgeries, or if you refuse to use pronouns in some states and around the
928. 46:22world now.
929. 46:24Some people are being jailed for that and put in prison.
930. 46:26Britain's terrible right now.
931. 46:28Scotland is too.
932. 46:29But this is what we're facing here in some states here.
933. 46:31Do you want that life?
934. 46:33Your children, you're going to lose control of your children,
935. 46:36and you will lose your resources and pastors.
936. 46:39Your pews are filled with middle-class people for the most part,
937. 46:43and they're going to hit so hard,
938. 46:45your budget's going to go down,
939. 46:47and you're not going to have a future as a church.
940. 46:48You're going to have to let go staff.
941. 46:50I know I'm not really saying anything outrageous.
942. 46:52You have to just think this through.
943. 46:53Some of you don't want to get involved for various reasons,
944. 46:57But you are actually setting about the destruction of your own congregation.
945. 47:02Now that's not a reason to vote, but I'm just telling you these are the realities.
946. 47:07If I can't wake you up with these moral issues, then this is what I need to say to you.
947. 47:12You're not going to have a salary, you're not going to have a staff, you're not going
948. 47:14to have a church building.
949. 47:16Yeah, it is a consistent Marxist-refrained, I'm sorry, regardless of what the discipline
950. 47:26an industry may be because you see like with climate alarmism, the prescriptions in terms
951. 47:29of what needs to be done are the same as economic markets, it seems, right?
952. 47:34The refrain is you will own nothing.
953. 47:37And be, and you'll like it.
954. 47:38And you'll like it.
955. 47:39You will own nothing.
956. 47:40You know, these ideas about eating bugs and getting rid of meat and these other kind of
957. 47:44things, these are not just fanciful ideas.
958. 47:45There are people who are literally articulating that as a prospective future for a people governed
959. 47:52by these types of policies.
960. 47:53Yes.
961. 47:54And you're, they're not going to be eating bugs.
962. 47:55Trust me, it reminds me of Kim Jong-un.
963. 47:57I was in North Korea in 2001.
964. 48:00They were flying in incredible luxury food for him.
965. 48:04He lived in a palace.
966. 48:05They built a gambling casino for him.
967. 48:07He was living in the lap of luxury.
968. 48:09The people were starving.
969. 48:10There was cannibalism.
970. 48:11This is what happens.
971. 48:13It happened to a Stalin in Russia.
972. 48:15He killed millions of his own people.
973. 48:17This was Mao and China who starved millions of his people.
974. 48:20If you think it's going to be any different for us,
975. 48:22You just don't understand history or what's happening here.
976. 48:26So we have to vote.
977. 48:27We can't stop this.
978. 48:28And I want to say one more thing.
979. 48:30Remember that the disciples voted for the disciple to replace Judas.
980. 48:34They prayed and then they voted, but they voted.
981. 48:37They voted.
982. 48:38Ask God to give them the best candidate to be the disciple.
983. 48:41So there's nothing wrong with voting.
984. 48:43It's a responsibility.
985. 48:45So let's do it.
986. 48:46Okay.
987. 48:47Sandy Rios, ladies and gentlemen, 24-7.
