1. 0:00Darkness is not an affirmative force.
2. 0:03It simply reoccupies the space vacated by the light.
3. 0:07This 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. 0:29And now, the Hamilton Corner.
11. 1:01I'm there and we are ready to rock and roll with today's edition of the program.
12. 1:07Lots of things are happening in the country.
13. 1:11Potentially tens of thousands of international longshoremen, port workers could be going on
14. 1:18strike as of midnight, technically, midnight tomorrow morning, but it's tonight affecting
15. 1:30the influx of goods all over the world from ports as far northeast as Maine, reaching
16. 1:35all the way around the east coast of our country down toward the Gulf Coast of our country as
17. 1:41far as Texas, affecting everything from household goods to fruit to the import of automobiles.
18. 1:50Even this could be a massive phenomenon that radically changes the way of life we have here
19. 1:57in America. We have the tragedy of Hurricane Helene Helene. I'm sorry. Last report I read
20. 2:07prior to coming on the air where the known death toll has exceeded 100 people. You still
21. 2:12have actually over 121. We have still significant around hundreds of people who are unaccounted
22. 2:20for untold devastation throughout the states of Florida and North and South Carolina, Georgia,
23. 2:31portions of Tennessee. It's just tragic, tragic, tragic for our nation. We have our old not-so-friend
24. 2:44lurch.
25. 2:45So the former senator of John Kerry who says what he really thinks when he's around friends.
26. 2:54That would be friends at the World Economic Forum, of course.
27. 2:58It's just not surprising to me.
28. 3:01It's just galling to me how much disdain many people who are American have for our Constitution.
29. 3:07You know, I'm trying to say much except for our first amendment as a problem.
30. 3:15You'll want to hear all about that.
31. 3:18And then we have this wonderful report
32. 3:20from Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
33. 3:23That was delivered to Congress,
34. 3:29specifically to Representative Tony Gonzalez of Texas.
35. 3:33That just shows, you know, not much,
36. 3:34except that there are thousands of criminal aliens
37. 3:39on the non-detention docket
38. 3:41for Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
39. 3:43These are people who have already been ordered
40. 3:45to leave the country.
41. 3:47or they're in the process of being removed from our country,
42. 3:50but dog on it, they're not detained by ICE,
43. 3:54that non-attentioned docket has reached seven million people.
44. 4:00And includes people that have been convicted,
45. 4:03not just charged, but convicted of crimes like homicide,
46. 4:07and assault, and other things.
47. 4:09And then there are scores of others
48. 4:11who have not been convicted yet, but they've been charged
49. 4:14with criminal, with crimes.
50. 4:17They're just here.
51. 4:19Got that news over the weekend.
52. 4:23And of course, the mainstream American provda did their best not to report on it.
53. 4:29It's pretty interesting.
54. 4:30But in spite of all of that, all of those issues are very, very important.
55. 4:36They're not more important than what goes on in your home.
56. 4:38What goes on in your house is far more important than what goes on in the White House.
57. 4:44So as you are making your moves right now, most of you, many of you, if not most of you,
58. 4:49your part time jobs where you generate an income to your full time jobs.
59. 4:54Let us be about our father's business and cultivate an outcome.
60. 4:59Much of what is transpired in America really is the product of the deficiency
61. 5:04in disciple making generation as far as it pertains to you and to me.
62. 5:12It is our distinct honor and privilege to serve our Lord's purposes in our time.
63. 5:17Let us work while it is day to the word of God.
64. 5:19we go. Second Kings, Chapter 7, Second Kings, Chapter 7, verses 3-3-11. This is a very familiar
65. 5:27passage of Scripture. The context for the portion we're going to delve into today is when King
66. 5:34Bennett out of Syria instituted a siege against the northern kingdom of Israel. Things got
67. 5:43so bad it's almost like port workers going on strike. Not really. This was a military siege.
68. 5:50But the whole point of the military siege was to cut off the flow of traffic and of goods
69. 5:57into the capital city of Samaria and in the northern kingdom of Israel and to keep anything
70. 6:04inside of the northern capital city from exiting.
71. 6:10Things got so bad you read the scriptural account and I don't want to be unnecessary
72. 6:14hyperbolic but things got so bad where cannibalism was being practiced.
73. 6:18Go back and read the read the scripture for yourself.
74. 6:22And the scripture tells us there were four men who had been according to Jewish law,
75. 6:28kicked out of the city, made to sit outside of the city because they were lepers.
76. 6:37So you get this picture, you have the city walled on the inside.
77. 6:43The king of Israel is on the inside, hiding his sackcloth under his robes.
78. 6:55The Syrian army is outside the city, camped, encamped outside the city, laying siege to the city.
79. 7:06And the lepers are kind of between them.
80. 7:08And we pick up at verse 3, in 2 Kings 7 verse 3.
81. 7:14And this is what the word of God says.
82. 7:16Now there were four men who were lepers at the entrance to the gate, and they said to one another,
83. 7:24why are we sitting here until we die? If we say, let us into the city, the famine is in the city,
84. 7:33and we shall die there. And if we sit here, we die also. So now come, let us go over to the camp
85. 7:40of the Syrians. If they spare our lives, we shall live. And if they kill us, we shall but die.
86. 7:46So they arose at twilight, just to get right to it as close to sunset, all right, to go to the camp of the Syrians.
87. 7:55But when they came to the edge of the camp of the Syrians, behold, no one was there.
88. 8:00Verse 6, For the Lord had made the army of the Syrians hear the sound of chariots and of horses,
89. 8:08the sound of a great army, so that they said to one another, Behold, the king of Israel has hired against us,
90. 8:17the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Egypt to come against us.
91. 8:20So they fled away in the twilight and abandoned their tents,
92. 8:25their horses and their donkeys leaving the camp as it was,
93. 8:29and fled for their lives.
94. 8:31And when these lepers came to the edge of the camp,
95. 8:33they went into a tent and ate and drank,
96. 8:36and they carried off silver and gold and clothing and went and hid them.
97. 8:40Then they came back and entered another tent and carried off things from it
98. 8:44and went and hid them.
99. 8:45Then they said to one another, we are not doing right.
100. 8:50This day is a day of good news.
101. 8:53If we are silent and wait until the morning light, punishment will overtake us.
102. 8:58Now therefore come, let us go and tell the King's household.
103. 9:02So they came and called to the gatekeepers of the city and told them, we came to the camp
104. 9:06of the Syrians and behold there was no one to be seen or heard there.
105. 9:11Nothing but the horses tied and the donkey's tied and the tents as they were.
106. 9:16And then the gatekeepers called out and it was told within the king's household.
107. 9:23This is an amazing, an amazing portion of scripture.
108. 9:30You have these lepers and I mean, you want to talk about having a broadened understanding
109. 9:37of God's deliverance.
110. 9:38All right.
111. 9:39Want to be clear about several things.
112. 9:41One, I know America is an Israel.
113. 9:44All right.
114. 9:45Two, I know there are things in Scripture that are descriptive,
115. 9:49meaning that the Lord includes them to describe
116. 9:52occurrences in Scripture, as opposed to being prescriptive.
117. 9:55While there are also things that are prescriptive,
118. 9:57meaning that they are prescribed for you and me
119. 9:59to embrace and to repeat.
120. 10:02With all of that said and understood,
121. 10:04there are also principles that God illustrates in Scripture
122. 10:07for us to understand, to introduce us
123. 10:10to an accurate understanding of who He is.
124. 10:14See, when we read Scripture,
125. 10:15We shouldn't look first and foremost to see what is saying about us.
126. 10:20Or even saying to us, we should look first and foremost to what the scripture is showing
127. 10:25us about God.
128. 10:28Here you have this scenario where when things are at a fever pitch in Israel, the most unlikely
129. 10:35source of respite comes through.
130. 10:39Lepers.
131. 10:40Nobody would have expected anything from lepers.
132. 10:45Then you have the lepers taking stock of their circumstances.
133. 10:51We sit here, we die.
134. 10:53We go there, we may die.
135. 10:56But if we sit here, it's a certainty that we will die.
136. 10:59If we go there, it's not necessarily certain that we will die.
137. 11:04And so in that instance, they take, they confer with one another.
138. 11:09Well, right foot, left foot, let's go.
139. 11:15Right foot, left foot, let's go.
140. 11:17And as they are walking, unbeknownst to them, they have no clue what God is doing in the
141. 11:25ears of the Syrians.
142. 11:27No clue, but the Scriptures gives us that peak.
143. 11:30Verse 6, the Syrians here, the sound of horses and chariots bearing down on them and is such
144. 11:39an imminent reality to them that they stop everything in the middle of what they're doing.
145. 11:45You can envision fires burning in furniture,
146. 11:49not literal furniture like we have,
147. 11:50but like beds still there and certain proteins
148. 11:54being still roasted and edges on the run,
149. 11:58leaving everything left gold, silver, and everything.
150. 12:01And when they arrive at the Syrian camp,
151. 12:04much of their surprise.
152. 12:07Oh snap, nobody's here.
153. 12:12Now think about this, remember, theirs was famine.
154. 12:14It's not just that they were lepers,
155. 12:16it was famine in Israel.
156. 12:23So they are eating food, gathering stuff.
157. 12:25They don't know what they're hiding stuff.
158. 12:27Then all of a sudden, wait a minute.
159. 12:31We're not doing right.
160. 12:33And they had a real awareness
161. 12:35that we should not enjoy all of those ourselves.
162. 12:37We need to report this and report it immediately.
163. 12:40Now the thing that I wanna focus more on is verse three.
164. 12:45Why are we sitting here until we die?
165. 12:51I believe one of the things that Lord is showing us
166. 12:55is that he spurs his people by giving them
167. 13:00an agitation, a restlessness, so to speak.
168. 13:03All right?
169. 13:05There's an internal working.
170. 13:08So when he can't attribute it to some like,
171. 13:11you know, Charleston, Heston, come on over here.
172. 13:14Well, you know, James Earl Jones's voice,
173. 13:17thou shalt walk toward the Syrian cab.
174. 13:27Some of you are listening to me
175. 13:29and you're watching the things that are going on.
176. 13:30You know what's happening in your own families
177. 13:32And there's just this, this, this kind of unsettled thing on hand side.
178. 13:38And it's there and it doesn't abate, you know, it doesn't go away.
179. 13:41It's just there and it's there and it's there and it's there and it's there.
180. 13:44And you can't kind of explain it. What I am saying to you is don't limit that to a human phenomena.
181. 13:54You've heard me say on the show, many, many, many, many, many times God has sovereignly ordained
182. 13:58the times in which we would live and where we would live.
183. 14:01with a lot of us in this audience can see all kinds of things happening.
184. 14:06And we know it shouldn't be in this way in all senses.
185. 14:10And what I'm saying is God is not in the business of having his people simply to be spectators
186. 14:17and analysts as to what happens.
187. 14:20He's called us to follow him in obedience.
188. 14:23And as I've been saying and I will continue to say
189. 14:27you and I can never predict the outcome of our obedience.
190. 14:31God gives us the express honor and privilege to obey Him.
191. 14:36Obedience is the prize because of the one who is summoning.
192. 14:42So my encouragement for you this evening is to not limit your assessment of that internal unsettleness to a human phenomenon,
193. 14:50but welcome the Lord to reveal to you, Lord, what are you requiring of me?
194. 14:54And give me the grace to respond to you in obedience.
195. 14:58Sometimes I'm not a very good Christian, and the Lord still seems to love me and do good
196. 15:05things for me. Grace is an outside force that works good in my life, rather than good pouring
197. 15:11forth from what I do. For the law was given through Moses, grace and truth were realized
198. 15:16through Jesus Christ. In my own spiritual life, I'd much rather ask a loving Savior to take
199. 15:22control. I'm Ed Vatagniano, and you can read the rest of, For the Grace of God has appeared
200. 15:28at the stand dot net
201. 15:35shining light into the darkness
202. 15:37this is the Hamilton quarter
203. 15:39an american family radio
204. 15:41welcome back to the Hamilton corner
205. 15:43Abraham Hamilton the third
206. 15:45here please join me
207. 15:47and our audience here in
208. 15:49praying for the people in florida
209. 15:51north and south carolina
210. 15:53Georgia Tennessee that have been
211. 15:55affected by hurricane holland
212. 15:57as I mentioned the
213. 15:59confirmed death toll has
214. 16:01during a briefing today, Homeland Security Advisor Liz Sherwood Randall suggested that there is still as
215. 16:10many as 600 people who have not been accounted for to date. There are areas of the country harder
216. 16:18hit than others, but there is all kinds of tragedy. Some places are still without water. Some places are
217. 16:28still without electricity. This
218. 16:30the storm made landfall as a
219. 16:32category for hurricane. And if
220. 16:36you are able incapable to
221. 16:41provide some material assistance
222. 16:43to people in those areas, please
223. 16:47do what you can. I know that our
224. 16:51friends at our sister ministry
225. 16:53at eight days of hope are on the
226. 16:55ground there already. And I would
227. 16:57suggest that that is a great
228. 16:58place to direct your research resources to primarily because we know them at eight days
229. 17:03of hope we know how they run their ministry. And frankly, I hate to have to say this, but
230. 17:10I would avoid places like Red Cross and others that have been known, unfortunately, to be less
231. 17:14than good stewards of other resources. I'll say it that way. But it's just heartbreaking.
232. 17:23Having survived the directly, the ravages of Hurricane Katrina, you know, my heart goes
233. 17:29out to these people and almost like, man, serious. There's another tropical storm that's
234. 17:37forming right now in Atlantic Ocean, tropical storm Kirk. And this is according to the U.S.
235. 17:43National Hurricane Center that they are monitoring it and attempting to prepare people there depending
236. 17:56on what all transpires there. So just the suffering of the people, man, is what is just
237. 18:05just calling and it's heart wrenching to hear and learn so many of these stories.
238. 18:11They're in many indications of neighbors helping one another, loving one another, serving one another.
239. 18:21And I just pray for the people in that air as well. As you've heard me saying many, many, many times,
240. 18:30I don't go looking for this stuff, but it just continually occurs and
241. 18:37And it's sickening, you know, and I mean sickening, nauseating.
242. 18:47I mean, it that way.
243. 18:49Nauseating to see these things happen over and over and over again.
244. 18:53And when you pointed out, you know, I'm thinking about the brother who called the show last week
245. 18:58saying it, man, I'm talking to people in my neighborhood and talking to people in my community,
246. 19:05my spheres of influence.
247. 19:07And they don't know the stuff that you're reporting on the show.
248. 19:10They don't hear that stuff.
249. 19:12And it is true.
250. 19:15And I know it's true because there are people
251. 19:19that have an entirely, I would say,
252. 19:24evil, demonic, and anti-US constitutional view of the world.
253. 19:34And they see the United States of America as an impediment.
254. 19:37And I was asked, I was on today's issues last week.
255. 19:42And I was asked, why does, why do people like George Soros have such a hatred for the United
256. 19:47States of America?
257. 19:48And the reality is that these people, many of them are globalists, advocates for global
258. 19:52governance, and they see the US as the last square peg that won't go into a round hole.
259. 20:00So in order to have the globalist panacea, they have to see the US brought to heel.
260. 20:08And this is what many people want.
261. 20:09And so you have former Secretary of State, I can't believe it, former presidential candidate.
262. 20:17I mean, this, this, this dude was almost president of the United States.
263. 20:22He participated last week in a, let me give you the formal name for it, or a forum, and
264. 20:30they called it the impact forum at the World Economic Forum.
265. 20:35And it was a panel on green energy and investing in sustainable development.
266. 20:42I'm gonna play the whole thing and then and then I'm going to have to unpack it for you
267. 20:48But where John Kerry gets in front of an international audience and basically
268. 20:54Lament and and
269. 20:57like publicly
270. 21:00Expresses his frustration and even almost exhaustion at the fact that we have a first amendment
271. 21:06And because of the first amendment what he said is that it's it's it's so difficult to govern now and by word govern
272. 21:15And I don't think he means what he, what you think he means.
273. 21:19But I want you to listen to his remarks for yourself and watch the video for those who
274. 21:23are watching the show.
275. 21:24You get to see his body language.
276. 21:25You get to see all of it.
277. 21:27This is John Kerry describing that the First Amendment stands as a major block to the ability
278. 21:34to hammer what he describes as disinformation out of existence.
279. 21:39Clip number one, go.
280. 21:41And it's part of our problem, particularly in democracies,
281. 21:45in terms of building consensus around any issue.
282. 21:49It's really hard to govern today.
283. 21:52You can't, you know, there's no, the referees we used to have
284. 21:55to determine what's a fact and what isn't a fact.
285. 21:57They've kind of, you know, been eviscerated to a certain degree.
286. 22:01And people go and that people self-select,
287. 22:05where they go for their news or for their information.
288. 22:09And then you just get into a vicious cycle.
289. 22:11So it's really, really hard, much harder to build consensus today than at any time in
290. 22:16the 45, 50 years I've been involved in this.
291. 22:20And there's a lot of discussion now about how you curb those entities in order to guarantee
292. 22:28that you're going to have some accountability on facts, et cetera.
293. 22:32But look, if people go to only one source and the source they go to is sick and has an
294. 22:39agenda and they're putting out disinformation, our First Amendment stands as a major block
295. 22:46to the ability to be able to just hammer it out of existence.
296. 22:50So what you need, what we need is to win the ground, win the right to govern by hopefully
297. 22:59having winning enough votes that you're free to be able to implement change.
298. 23:05Now, obviously, there are some people in our country who are prepared to implement change
299. 23:10in other ways.
300. 23:12And that's where we're standing.
301. 23:13So, you're questioning really if democracy can survive unreadily.
302. 23:17I think democracy is a very challenged right now and have not proven they can move fast
303. 23:25enough or big enough to deal with the challenges that we are facing.
304. 23:30And to me, that is part of what this race, this election is all about, will we break the fever
305. 23:37in the United States?
306. 23:40Will we break the fever?
307. 23:45What fever?
308. 23:49Now, y'all know I'm just an equal opportunity truth teller, but I have the transcript of
309. 23:53his remarks and I want to take my time to walk through some of this.
310. 23:58So he begins the conversation by refusing to identify the unique distinction that the U.S.
311. 24:04as because our nation is not a democracy.
312. 24:09Y'all heard me say this numerous times.
313. 24:10It's a constitutional republic with democratic features.
314. 24:14And I intentionally stressed that
315. 24:16because the efforts to continually describe our nation
316. 24:18as a democracy is an effort to obscure
317. 24:21our representative government
318. 24:23with the unique feature of a constitution
319. 24:28that serves as the ultimate authoritative legal source
320. 24:33for our constitutional republic, that we have the wherewithal to change if we do so, but it requires the persuasion of your neighbor.
321. 24:44But as it is, and I've said this to you before, I'm going to say it again, as it is with all totalitarian, as it is with all anti-constitutionless, what they despise.
322. 24:55What they despise is the diffusion of powers, the separation of powers with the systems of checks and balances that require popular participation
323. 25:03in order to effectively accomplish governmental objectives,
324. 25:07particularly at the federal level.
325. 25:10So he goes on to say, quote, it's really hard to govern today.
326. 25:19Let me go back.
327. 25:21Quote, it is our problem.
328. 25:23It is part of our problem, particularly in democracies,
329. 25:27in terms of building consensus around any issue.
330. 25:30It's really hard to govern today.
331. 25:33End quote.
332. 25:35Question, Mr. Kerry, when you say the word govern, do you really mean govern?
333. 25:43Or do you mean control?
334. 25:46See, when there are diverging opinions, those who are interested in serving the populace with
335. 25:54diverging opinions don't limit the difficulty and control in those opinions.
336. 26:00But you lament your ability to control those opinions because you're not interested in
337. 26:06serving the populace.
338. 26:07He's not what he's lamenting is not a not an issue of governance.
339. 26:13He's lamenting the inability to effectively impose top down government forced control of
340. 26:23the masses.
341. 26:25That is what he's lamenting.
342. 26:28And you think he say that same thing in a speech in the United States of America?
343. 26:32No, see, when you get comfortable, when you get around your fellow South Paws, not for
344. 26:38pitching purposes, but for ideological purposes, then you start saying what you really believe.
345. 26:46He's lamenting the ability to control.
346. 26:49And then he further confirms that because he says, quote, you can't you see the referees
347. 26:54we used to have to determine what is a fact and was isn't what is in effect kind of have
348. 27:00kind of been eviscerated.
349. 27:02Pause.
350. 27:03I don't remember us having a bureau of factual determination.
351. 27:09Do you?
352. 27:10We used to have, you know, the word news comes from North East, West, and South.
353. 27:15We simply going to share it to you what's going on.
354. 27:18And you clear thinking American citizens who ultimately are tasked with the responsibility
355. 27:25of holding your representatives accountable, you determine what is true.
356. 27:29But the reason why he's lamenting the referees, because remember back in the day, there was
357. 27:34unanimous viewpoint in terms of what information the American people received.
358. 27:39tend to forget because of recency bias that the whole Fox News wrestling
359. 27:44barking on drum just started in the 90s. What Lurch is lamenting is that back in
360. 27:57the day it was easier to control because we had limited viewpoints that the
361. 28:02public had access to but that's what he's lamenting but now he's upset quote and
362. 28:13people go and self-select where they get where they go for their news and for
363. 28:17the information in quote what's the problem bro if we just talking information how about
364. 28:25this how about this how about we let all of the information get access to the american
365. 28:33people you know kind of like there's this laptop thing that was discovered and how would
366. 28:41the people vote if that was allowed if the people voting before knew that on the front
367. 28:45end now people listen to this program knew all about the laptop but there are lots of people
368. 28:52who didn't know about the laptop, but they voted.
369. 28:54Then when they learned the laptop existed,
370. 28:55what did they say?
371. 28:58I would have voted on a different.
372. 29:02See, these people are totalitarian.
373. 29:07Don't let the suit and ties fool you.
374. 29:10Just because they don't have swastikas on their arm
375. 29:12doesn't mean they don't have swastikas in their hearts.
376. 29:15When I mean my swastikas, I don't mean merely anti-Semitism
377. 29:20because there are a lot of anti-Semites
378. 29:22who share that worldview.
379. 29:23But what I am talking about, what I am talking about,
380. 29:28is a desire to impose national socialism.
381. 29:36National socialism.
382. 29:39You do realize this with the Nazi stands for in German.
383. 29:43And notice I said impose it.
384. 29:49He goes on quote, so it's really hard,
385. 29:51much harder to build consensus today
386. 29:53than at any time in the 40, 50 years
387. 29:55I've been involved in this, end quote.
388. 29:57Quick question, Marty, Jeff, Bobby,
389. 30:00now I help me, is it the government's job
390. 30:01to build consensus?
391. 30:03Is that the government's job?
392. 30:06building consensus. I've read the Constitution quite a bit. I don't remember seeing the Constitution
393. 30:13say it's a government job to build consensus. And in Article 1, Article 2, no, no. So why is
394. 30:20lurch lamenting in front of a European audience of world economic foreigners? It's much harder
395. 30:27to build consensus than at any time. Oh, so now you're admitting in the time that you viewed as
396. 30:33being so glowing, that was far easier to build consensus for what purpose.
397. 30:40Building consensus is not a governmental objective, but it is.
398. 30:46If you wear shirts, celebrate, and take a bowder.
399. 30:51And then he goes on to letters, say the not so quiet parts out loud, quote, you know, you
400. 30:56know, you know, friends, there's a lot of discussion now about how you curb those entities.
401. 31:08Curp those entities in order to guarantee that you're going to have some accountability on
402. 31:13the facts. See, this is the thing that people feel to realize. We have laws in the United
403. 31:19States of America that prevent defamation. That's why Nicholas Salmon ain't never going
404. 31:27to work a day in his life because he has to. But you notice, but you notice they don't want
405. 31:34to use those laws because you know what? What often seems to lurch and many of those others.
406. 31:42We have to crush disinformation. We talked last week about that term was coined by Stalin,
407. 31:46and Joseph Stalin in the 90s, I'm sorry, 1920s,
408. 31:52this information we historically understood
409. 31:55all the thing you needed to do to confront a lie
410. 31:57was tell the truth.
411. 31:58But you see what Lurch's problem is,
412. 32:02is that he doesn't want his folks lies exposed.
413. 32:06So when you can say in 2021,
414. 32:10oh, three weeks to flatten the curve.
415. 32:15And then realize, Rhett Row,
416. 32:17scarf lady comes out, yeah, that was a lie
417. 32:18from the beginning, we, you know,
418. 32:20That's how we had to get it started.
419. 32:21These folks are totalitarianists.
420. 32:29Those who place their faith in Jesus
421. 32:31are elevated to an extraordinary position.
422. 32:34As co-heirs with Christ, we share in His inheritance.
423. 32:37The gospel is the ultimate dignity giver,
424. 32:40elevating the unworthy to unimaginable heights.
425. 32:43Our lives should reflect the dignity,
426. 32:45empowering us to extend the same grace and love to others
427. 32:48that has been so generously given to us.
428. 32:51I'm Jordan Shambly, and you can read the rest
429. 32:54of the gospel signifies the undignified on the stand.net.
430. 33:03Hamilton Quarter Podcast and One-Minute Comment Terrence
431. 33:07are available at aFR.net, back to the Hamilton Quarter
432. 33:11on American Family Radio.
433. 33:14Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner,
434. 33:15Abraham Hamilton III here.
435. 33:17Listen, I'm going through these comments the way
436. 33:21that I am because my prayer is that this audience
437. 33:25that your ears perk up when you hear this kind of stuff,
438. 33:27just like mine do.
439. 33:29Like these guys hide or attempt to hide
440. 33:33their utter disdain for the United States of America
441. 33:36as she is constituted and they are actively working
442. 33:43to fundamentally transform her into something
443. 33:47he has never been.
444. 33:49So when you see things like out of control, spending
445. 33:52to where there is no way this is sustainable,
446. 33:55guys that is not an accident.
447. 33:58It is not an accident.
448. 34:01So, Lurch goes on, it's John Kerry.
449. 34:08Quote, but look, if people only go to one source
450. 34:10and the source they go to is sick,
451. 34:13and you know, has an agenda,
452. 34:15and they're putting out this information,
453. 34:17oh, you mean like the American prophet?
454. 34:22You mean like ABC saying,
455. 34:25we're gonna fact check Trump and nobody else
456. 34:26during the presidential debate, that's what you mean?
457. 34:29Nah, that's not what you mean.
458. 34:32That's not what you mean.
459. 34:34He continues quote, our first amendment stands as a major block to be able to just, you know,
460. 34:42hammer it out of existence and quote, wow.
461. 34:52Wow.
462. 34:54Guys, this is evil.
463. 34:57Listen, I am concerned over the bulkiness of America.
464. 35:01Yes.
465. 35:02But my answer to that is not, Hey, you know what?
466. 35:07I mean, that pesky first amendment just gets in the way every time.
467. 35:10Because these people in our country have this thing that they have the freedom to speak what they want to speak.
468. 35:15It's such an inconvenient imposition to what we really need to do, which is hammer it out of existence.
469. 35:22Now, I would ask you, what is the it you think he's referring to?
470. 35:26Well, let us contextualize his statements.
471. 35:29Remember what he said earlier?
472. 35:32It's really hard, much harder to build consensus.
473. 35:36It's really hard. It's hard to govern today.
474. 35:39You know, there's a lot of discussion of the need to curb those entities.
475. 35:43Now, in light of those previous contextual statements, what is it that you think he wants
476. 35:47to hammer out of existence?
477. 35:54It's dissent.
478. 35:57What he wants to hammer out of existence, and what a metaphor to employ, right?
479. 36:03What he wants to hammer out of existence is that pesky American penchant to not just go
480. 36:10along to get along.
481. 36:11You know that thing that resulted in these folks gathering and pinning this letter on July
482. 36:174th, 1776?
483. 36:21You know that pesky pincer that they have to wait a minute.
484. 36:24If something is going wrong to actually say something about it, they're freedoms to assemble
485. 36:30and freedoms to seek redress of grievances against the government and freedom to speak.
486. 36:37I'm concerned about the organization, but my answer is not to crush dissenting opinions.
487. 36:45I have no problem.
488. 36:46I would welcome the opportunity to go on the view, to talk to Joy Reid, to go on all these
489. 36:51shows, but you know what?
490. 36:52They don't want to talk to me.
491. 36:55But I would love to talk to them because I have no problem.
492. 36:59When you have bad ideas and bad arguments that are prevalent, the answer is better argument.
493. 37:05The answer is not to crush their opportunity to speak their argument.
494. 37:10I don't think the answer, but this is the totalitarian answer.
495. 37:17Guys, this is wicked.
496. 37:18Again, suited and tied and sitting around the table
497. 37:21and talking so just like, well, you know,
498. 37:25truly in order to accomplish what we need to accomplish,
499. 37:27we really need to get rid of a couple of billion people.
500. 37:30Just saying it so calmly and casually
501. 37:33when these people despise.
502. 37:35Which is why they say things like,
503. 37:36a basket of deplorables.
504. 37:40Which is why they say things like,
505. 37:41clinging to their guns and their religion.
506. 37:47to the guns of the religion when it's the religion and the use of some guns that allowed us to say we hold these shoes to be self-evident
507. 37:54That we're endowed by our creator
508. 37:57Well golly gee creator doesn't that kind of guys? This is wild
509. 38:06to hammer it out of existence and you don't even recognize that when you
510. 38:16Bobby not we're talking about this during the break as he's making these comments
511. 38:22It is people who share his view of the world that own the majority
512. 38:28of the outlets that access the American people.
513. 38:31For those of you who are listening to this program,
514. 38:33many of you have had to search it out to find it.
515. 38:38You went and just stroll into the airport
516. 38:39and oh, there's no aid on the TV screen, that ain't happen.
517. 38:45The amount of outlets that are available
518. 38:47that offer a contrarian viewpoint
519. 38:50to the prevailing American,
520. 38:52probably the narrative are still the minority.
521. 38:58But this is the thing with totalitarian,
522. 39:02they cannot abide any decent.
523. 39:04hence the reference to Joseph Gerbels and Gerbels Inc.
524. 39:10Because in order to continue to have the trains
525. 39:13filled with people on their way to gas chambers
526. 39:16and the citizens won't say,
527. 39:17you know what it's kind of bad we'll be doing now.
528. 39:20You have to shape their minds with ideas.
529. 39:27And that is what's happening guys.
530. 39:32So then Lurch drops this bomb of conclusion,
531. 39:36which just summed it all up, quote,
532. 39:40I think democracies are very challenged right now and have not proven they can move fast
533. 39:46enough or big enough to deal with the challenges they are facing.
534. 39:53Now, I'm not married to Teresa Hines, heiress of the Checha Fortune, shout out to my man
535. 40:06butter doing life in the box.
536. 40:11I'm not married to Teresa Hines.
537. 40:14But I can't read.
538. 40:18Now, in order for the United States federal government to be involved in anything, how many
539. 40:23people doesn't require to participate?
540. 40:26You have in the House of Representatives, you have 435 representatives, and in the US Senate,
541. 40:33you have 100 senators with the presidential evaluation to veto or not to veto.
542. 40:39Oh, that's 536 people to have to participate in order to do anything.
543. 40:43Do you think the Founding Fathers created our federal government to be a rapid responder
544. 40:49to anything? No! It's meant to be a deliberative entity. Why? Because the
545. 40:55founders understood Jeremiah 179 and that a
546. 40:59privative to human heart and the founders created a federal apparatus that
547. 41:02was never meant to respond quickly because the sinfulness of man's heart is
548. 41:06fickle, easily inflamed, can be aroused by the
549. 41:10Megagery and so they created a diffuse system of government with separation of
550. 41:14powers with checks and balances that requires deliberative consideration.
551. 41:21It's supposed to be a rapper responder.
552. 41:24Oh, but what can move more swiftly and efficiently?
553. 41:28A centralized Politburo.
554. 41:32So then what do you do if you want a centralized Politburo?
555. 41:34Well, I'm just glad you asked.
556. 41:36You work incrementally and surreptitiously
557. 41:39to get the government to be,
558. 41:40to get a monopoly on the training of the hearts
559. 41:42and minds of American subsequent generations.
560. 41:44I mean, you don't want them reading things
561. 41:45like the Declaration of Independence
562. 41:46when you see that the government's arrived
563. 41:48is just power from the consent of the government.
564. 41:50And if government does exceed the boundaries of its scope
565. 41:52in his just function, then the citizens have a right to cast off those restraints.
566. 41:56Or we don't want them reading that.
567. 41:59We don't want them reading that.
568. 42:01So what we do is we use government to infiltrate the system of training the hearts and minds
569. 42:05of America's subsequent generations, and so that they forget things like the Declaration
570. 42:09of Independence.
571. 42:10And they are conveniently ignorant of what the separation of powers is supposed to be.
572. 42:15And because of their ignorance, we can take more and more and more of their freedoms,
573. 42:21and they won't even know what's coming.
574. 42:25And the next thing you know, you have a populace that is saying, man, we need the government
575. 42:29as the answer to any question.
576. 42:32Oh, there's a float over here.
577. 42:33We need the government to respond.
578. 42:34Oh, there's some people hungry over here.
579. 42:35We need the government to respond.
580. 42:36Oh, we need a building over here.
581. 42:37We need the government to respond.
582. 42:38We need the government to go.
583. 42:39The government, the government, the government.
584. 42:40The government, the government.
585. 42:41Whoa, slow down.
586. 42:46The uniqueness of the United States of America is that the prize within the nation is her
587. 42:53people.
588. 42:54We are a people, unlike people before us, that we don't look to the government for everything.
589. 43:04But over time, remove civics from the educational discourse, remove economics from educational
590. 43:10discourse, tax the people to point them to government as the end all be all.
591. 43:19Replace God with government.
592. 43:23And then you could say stupid stuff like this, man, what a government ain't moving fast enough.
593. 43:27The government ain't never been made to move fast, chief.
594. 43:30And if there's any rapid response from any government
595. 43:32or entities, it's supposed to be the government
596. 43:33that's closest to the people.
597. 43:37Now we can't have them understanding that.
598. 43:43So let's dumb them down, make them dasau,
599. 43:50get them to the place where they don't have the capacity
600. 43:55to ask the question that the four lepers asked.
601. 43:58Man, we see what's over there with those Syrians.
602. 44:03And we see the feminists behind us in the city.
603. 44:07Why do we sit here?
604. 44:10We used to understand as a nation
605. 44:11that the first place that people would go to
606. 44:13when they considered the need for charity,
607. 44:14is that they would go to the church.
608. 44:17That used to be a collectible understanding in America.
609. 44:21Now things are so top-to-tirpy,
610. 44:23we have people in government
611. 44:24that are seeking ever so feverously
612. 44:26to shut the church down.
613. 44:28Oh, well, there's a threat of a virus.
614. 44:31Wuhan flew is running a mutt.
615. 44:32Keep the strip clubs open, keep the liquor joints open,
616. 44:35keep the big box stores open,
617. 44:36but shut the churches down.
618. 44:40The churches don't know up from down,
619. 44:41so the churches are eager to,
620. 44:42oh, oh, oh, to love my neighbor.
621. 44:46I have to, I have to buy the government.
622. 44:50Do you see?
623. 44:51And this is what Lurch is
624. 44:53starting with in front of the world economic forum.
625. 44:59Governments aren't moving fast enough nor big enough.
626. 45:03No, you know why?
627. 45:04Because our nation we constructed
628. 45:05so that the federal government to apparatus
629. 45:07was supposed to remain small.
630. 45:09You know, there's this thing, you know,
631. 45:10ninth and 10th amendment to US constitutions.
632. 45:12Maybe I, to the US constitution, maybe I'm interested.
633. 45:15But I remember distinctly reading,
634. 45:17Any powers not expressly given to the federal government in this document.
635. 45:23If it ain't in here, the feds can't do it.
636. 45:27Any rights, any powers not enumerated herein are expressly reserved to the states and the citizens.
637. 45:38Hey, that's in there? Yup. So you?
638. 45:44You mean to tell...
639. 45:47Wait, everything that they're supposed to be doing from Capitol Hill is supposed to be...
640. 45:53Yes, yes. This is why what I'm saying to you, when the scripture says that we are rushing
641. 46:08out against flesh and blood, but against spiritual wickedness in high places,
642. 46:12spiritual wickedness can be presented in a suit and tie.
643. 46:15It can wear suit and ties.
644. 46:30When you see, lurch on the world stage lamenting the ability to build consensus and to curb
645. 46:41entities that allow pesky information to be distributed that we don't want distributed,
646. 46:49you are looking at the moderation of the same ideology that drove a Joseph Stalin that drove
647. 46:58drove a Vladimir Lenin that drove a pole popped that drove my
648. 47:05mouth say tongue that drove tegevada that drove Fidel Castro that
649. 47:12drove the the Nicaraguan rebellion that drove the Venezuela
650. 47:20Hugo Chavez it continues to rear its ugly head because it's the
651. 47:25same ideology folks. It's the same mindset. But thanks be to God, you and I can never predict
652. 47:36what the Lord would do with our obedience. And I know some of you might say, man, but it's so, look,
653. 47:43look, I don't see a way out of this. Did you think those lepers saw that? Wait a minute,
654. 47:51the famine will end. You read the rest of the account, not only did the famine end, the famine
655. 47:55ended that day, but it began with the lepers. Well, it began with the Lord telling Elijah,
656. 48:02It's gonna go down.
657. 48:04And then as the Lord saying that to you,
658. 48:05Lycia, the leprosy, why sit we here?
659. 48:09Why, why, why, why we sit here?
660. 48:10Why are we gonna keep sitting here?
661. 48:12We see what's going on over there
662. 48:13and we know what's going on behind us.
663. 48:14Why don't we get up?
664. 48:18I'm saying the same thing to us.
665. 48:20Why do we sit here?
666. 48:21Why don't we get up?
667. 48:22Tell the truth, man.
668. 48:24Share with people gently, lovingly.
669. 48:26One of the main things we need to do.
670. 48:28It's to share information with people.
671. 48:30They might get mad, they might get upset,
672. 48:31but eventually truth prevails.
