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. 0:28And now the Hamilton Corner. Good evening everybody. Welcome to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton the third.
11. 0:38It's my name joined by the corner contingent right across from me. A man 100 grand Mr Bobby
12. 0:47is in the studio trying to figure out now how can a court keep the federal government from giving a
13. 0:56Grant isn't a grant a
14. 1:02volitional
15. 1:04contribution and and how can you sue to force someone to give you another grant because it gave you one last year I
16. 1:14Gotta have more cowbell
17. 1:16Is that a congressional
18. 1:19fiscal appropriation
19. 1:21Or is it something else?
20. 1:27He's trying to figure that out in the screening room
21. 1:29We have produced extraordinary, often imitated, but never duplicated.
22. 1:34The real J. Mac is in the screening room.
23. 1:38And we're ready to rock and roll with today's edition of the program.
24. 1:43At this very moment, many of you, if not most of you, are making your transition from your
25. 1:47part-time jobs where you generate an income to your full-time jobs or your cultivated outcome.
26. 1:53And as you do so, I want to remind you to do so with intentionality.
27. 1:59I cannot stress that enough.
28. 2:01I mean, today we're going to delve into a perfect example, because we are in the throes
29. 2:08of the seismic shift I've been describing for quite some time.
30. 2:14The quandary, the national quandary is often posited as no longer being a debate about in
31. 2:24terms of political discourse, but it's a contention between good versus evil.
32. 2:28And as I've been saying, but both sides of the debate are saying, the other side is evil.
33. 2:34My side is good, your side is evil, to which we have to ask the question well, by what standard,
34. 2:41you know, and what we're going to get into in a moment.
35. 2:44It is sad to say, you know, the United States Senator from Mr. Rosa's former home state seems
36. 2:53to not just be ignorant of, but he is in his own words, very, very troubled, very troubled
37. 3:00by the suggestion that rights come from God.
38. 3:04Oh, he was a guest.
39. 3:07Could not believe he was stated within the halls of Congress
40. 3:11that rights come from God to which I would just say,
41. 3:18hey, oh, Tim, Tim, hey, there was another dude from Virginia
42. 3:23who wrote something down about that, you know,
43. 3:26probably about July 4, 1776.
44. 3:30Have you read that, brah?
45. 3:33If you haven't, you probably should.
46. 3:36But here's the thing, this cat is in the US Senate.
47. 3:40And you remember, he was a vice presidential candidate.
48. 3:45If he doesn't know, or has become conveniently ignorant of,
49. 3:52this fact, who else has become conveniently ignorant?
50. 3:58And why I stress the necessity of making sure we understand
51. 4:03that what goes on in your house is more important
52. 4:05than what goes on in the White House
53. 4:07is because the society of the United States factory
54. 4:13has continuously produced people like Tim Caine.
55. 4:19This is why it's not over yet,
56. 4:22but the polls are indicating New York City's gonna have
57. 4:24a Muslim communist mayor,
58. 4:30fixed that, put that one together, a communist Muslim.
59. 4:35Oh, I had a minimum of Marxist, you know.
60. 4:38You know, because of the Carter Sellers,
61. 4:40certainly wouldn't want you to do,
62. 4:41well, he's not a communist, he's a socialist.
63. 4:45I broke.
64. 4:48Marks us with that fit you.
65. 4:50Guys, we got to batten down the hatches at home.
66. 4:53We got to batten down the hatches at home.
67. 4:56So a Gallup poll today, I'm not going to go into detail on it during the show.
68. 5:00But just doing research for the show came across a Gallup poll indicating that in utero
69. 5:06baby murder at any stage has become more popular now following Dobbs overturning Row versus
70. 5:13is waiting and playing in the verses case.
71. 5:16We have lots of work to do,
72. 5:18and that's to start at our homes.
73. 5:19To the Word of God, we go.
74. 5:22To the Word of God, we go Joshua chapter 24,
75. 5:25so we're gonna start the program.
76. 5:27Verses 29 through 31.
77. 5:31This portion of scripture describes the end of Joshua's life,
78. 5:43but the Lord provides very poignant revelation for us
79. 5:47describing the circumstances of Joshua's departure, as well as the duration of the lives of the elders
80. 5:53who survive Joshua. And this is what God's word says. It came about after these things that Joshua,
81. 6:01the son of none, the servant of the Lord, died being 110 years old. And they buried him in the
82. 6:08territory of his inheritance in Timnath-Sarah, which is in the hill country of Yifraim on the north
83. 6:15of Mount Gosh, Gosh. Israel served the Lord all the days of Joshua and all the days of
84. 6:28the elders who survived Joshua and had known all the deeds of the Lord which he had done
85. 6:36for Israel. Now, I read that and I rejoice at Joshua's testimony and his enduring witness
86. 6:44the testimony and the witness of the elders who survived him.
87. 6:48This would be people who were contemporaries of Joshua
88. 6:53as they entered the Promised Land and settled the majority
89. 6:56of the Promised Land.
90. 7:00But what do you think the scripture is telling you
91. 7:02by making that statement?
92. 7:03And Israel served the Lord all the days of Joshua
93. 7:06and the days of the elders that survived Joshua.
94. 7:09What do you think the scripture is telling you?
95. 7:10What do you think the Lord is telling us in that?
96. 7:15telling us that the quality of Yahweh fidelity that endured during Joshua's lifetime and in the lifetime
97. 7:31of those who survived Joshua, the fidelity continued. But guess what? It didn't endure thereafter.
98. 7:44It's kind of like he turns into the very next book in the book of Judges and
99. 7:48and where Gideon is being called
100. 7:51and identified as a mighty man of valor
101. 7:54and Gideon's response is,
102. 7:56hoo, almost like, who are you kidding me?
103. 8:00Where are all the miracles which our fathers told us about?
104. 8:06Saying, did not the Lord bring us up from Egypt?
105. 8:09Where's all of that stuff?
106. 8:10And I heard these stories, but I don't see none of that present.
107. 8:15Then if you're familiar with the account
108. 8:18of Gideon's life and his call, you know that one of the first things Gideon had to do in
109. 8:24following the Lord was to tear down the idols in his father's front yard on his homelands
110. 8:33in his homestead's front yard.
111. 8:35He had to tear that down first.
112. 8:36Let you go in a short amount of time from Joshua, one the battle of Jericho, Jericho,
113. 8:48Jericho.
114. 8:50I said, wonder about a love in Jericho.
115. 8:52And the walls came to my land down.
116. 8:55You know, you go from, you know, rehab, say, man, y'all thinking, y'all skated these people.
117. 9:02Man, everybody around has heard, they heard about what your God did to the Egyptians.
118. 9:07And they are all quaking and trembling in fear of you.
119. 9:12And short order you go from that to Gideon's way, where is where's this God that, you know?
120. 9:20I heard, I heard the stories, but where are you at now, no?
121. 9:22I don't see any evidence that we have, we have, we have
122. 9:26extra polls in our front yards now.
123. 9:30How do you go from, and you shall have this book of the law and it shall not
124. 9:34depart from your mouth through.
125. 9:38We found this book in the temple.
126. 9:40We still got a temple now with all kind of shenanigans going on on the inside of it
127. 9:47by all shrines and cult prostitutes.
128. 9:52Oh, but then we came across this book.
129. 9:53There's a book here and I've asked the question, man, how does that happen?
130. 10:01How does that happen?
131. 10:04Guys, we're living through it right now.
132. 10:06We're living through it right now.
133. 10:09We're living through it right now.
134. 10:11And this is why I continue to say our most enduring need as a society is repentance.
135. 10:18Many of you recall there was a time in our nation's history.
136. 10:24I'll speak for myself.
137. 10:26You go outside.
138. 10:30You're a child and you're misbehaving.
139. 10:32All the adults on the block have permission from the parent to bust your tail.
140. 10:37You know, no shade to the gentle parrotors out there.
141. 10:41Yes, shade.
142. 10:46All of the parents, all of the adults.
143. 10:48And if you got home and your parents learned that
144. 10:52Miss so and so down the street had to correct you,
145. 10:56guess what's gonna happen when you got home?
146. 11:01You got another round coming.
147. 11:03But why?
148. 11:04Here's the thing, not just,
149. 11:05not that these things happened, but why?
150. 11:09Why?
151. 11:12Because there was a cultural norm of understanding
152. 11:17that foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child.
153. 11:20The children need discipline.
154. 11:22There was a societal expectation
155. 11:24for children to be respectful to adults.
156. 11:30But that expectation has waned.
157. 11:32And don't, don't, Mr. Stewart, I'm saying,
158. 11:34I'm not here to kind of bang on all the young people
159. 11:37because all the young people come from somewhere.
160. 11:39All the other young people we have now,
161. 11:42they have parents, they have families,
162. 11:44they've come from somewhere.
163. 11:45They have not become the way they've become on their own.
164. 11:48This does not absolve them of their own responsibility,
165. 11:51but it certainly is a similar indictment
166. 11:53to those from whom they have come,
167. 11:57and by whom they have been reared.
168. 12:00It's like the Prophet Isaiah said,
169. 12:02the whole head is sick.
170. 12:04The whole head is sick.
171. 12:09To where we're living in the time period
172. 12:11where people are often surprised to see children
173. 12:13that's obedient to their parents and public.
174. 12:16Surprised to what we have Supreme Court justices
175. 12:19who don't know what a woman is,
176. 12:21or at a minimum won't admit or won't acknowledge
177. 12:24what a woman is in public.
178. 12:28What has happened to where we have
179. 12:33a demonically inspired young man
180. 12:40who is identifying himself as a woman
181. 12:42who's murdering babies in Minnesota,
182. 12:44murdering children in Minnesota,
183. 12:46you have all of these media pundits
184. 12:48going on this apology tour,
185. 12:50apologizing for misgendering the murderer.
186. 12:55Y'all hear what I'm telling you?
187. 12:59And you have some who will mock the notion of praying.
188. 13:03I'm looking at you, Gavinito Nusilini.
189. 13:07You're in a mock prayer?
190. 13:11Guys, we're witnessing it.
191. 13:13And we have lots of people that wanna talk
192. 13:14about the peripheral matters.
193. 13:15They wanna identify things.
194. 13:17Man, crime is out of control
195. 13:18and some of our major urban areas in the major cities.
196. 13:22We have these things that are out of control.
197. 13:23Oh my gosh, we have massing, we have massing,
198. 13:26massive debt and spending.
199. 13:28Do we not realize?
200. 13:29Do we not realize?
201. 13:32The Lord told us in his word that where a man's heart is,
202. 13:34that's where his treasure will be also.
203. 13:36Do we not realize that God cares about the things
204. 13:42he entrust to our care?
205. 13:43How we utilize money says a lot about who we are
206. 13:47and what we believe about God?
207. 13:49Individually and nationally, excluding unfunded liabilities.
208. 13:59We have exceeded $30 trillion in debt.
209. 14:03When the scripture says,
210. 14:04where the borrower is a slave to the lender,
211. 14:09how do we reconcile that?
212. 14:11What I'm saying, folks, is I know to some,
213. 14:14it may sound like a broken record,
214. 14:16but I'm gonna continue mixing this record.
215. 14:18Call me DJ AB Fresh.
216. 14:20Wicked, wicked.
217. 14:20Cause it's not being discussed enough in popular discourse.
218. 14:27And it's important, it's incumbent upon the saints
219. 14:30of the living God to recognize the times that we're in
220. 14:32and know how we are to respond.
221. 14:34That our greatest and most enduring need
222. 14:36as a nation is repentance.
223. 14:38In order for that to transpire,
224. 14:40The people of God must proclaim the truth of God's word publicly, publicly, and commit
225. 14:48ourselves to seeing God's purpose as being fulfilled in us first and then through us.
226. 14:55Lord, may it be so.
227. 15:00A discipleship minute with Joseph Parker.
228. 15:03In the tragic abortion debate today, with people who say that they love the Lord on both
229. 15:08sides of the issue, who is right?
230. 15:11A bigger question is, who decides what is right or wrong?
231. 15:15Who decides what pleases the Lord and what does not please him?
232. 15:20God does.
233. 15:21God tells us his perspective and thoughts.
234. 15:24He tells us what is right and what is wrong in his word.
235. 15:28In the present cultural landscape, we can actually determine who is right and who is wrong.
236. 15:33We can see who is on the Lord's side and who is not.
237. 15:37It's not a matter of who is God's siding with.
238. 15:40God doesn't take sides.
239. 15:42He gives us his word.
240. 15:44If we line up with this word, we end up on the right side of an issue.
241. 15:49Let's rise up and faithfully stand for life and help end the tragedy of abortion in our
242. 15:53culture and more.
243. 16:05Shiting light into the darkness, this is the Hamilton Corner, an American family radio.
244. 16:11Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton III here.
245. 16:14Let's get right into it.
246. 16:15So today, Riley Barnes, who is a former U.S. State Department official who has been nominated
247. 16:22by President Trump to serve as Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights and Labor.
248. 16:28He was before the Senate, sorry, the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and Senator
249. 16:36Tim Kaine and Senator Ted Cruz are members of the committee, and Riley Barnes provided
250. 16:44his opening statement, opening statement, in which he explained, in fact, no, quoted the
251. 16:54Declaration of Independence, and assert it that rights come from God, not from government.
252. 17:01Now, many of you know, you heard me say on the show many times, if I ever had the opportunity
253. 17:07to host a president to debate, the very first question I would ask, and this is something
254. 17:14that I'm not holding my breath for, of course, but the very first question I would ask, every
255. 17:19candidate is where do rights come from?
256. 17:24the answer to that to that one question will tell me a very large amount of the candidates
257. 17:31worldview. Well, Senator Tim Kane, he is a senator from Virginia, the former running mate
258. 17:39for she should never be president the original, not the remix now. Not a Tim. Some people like
259. 17:49to describe him based upon the hygienic materials that are used by females, but he
260. 17:57to include them in boys' restrooms
261. 18:01in the public schools of the state of Minnesota.
262. 18:05Yeah.
263. 18:08Tim Caine was upset by the remarks.
264. 18:11I mean, I'll give you a quote,
265. 18:13and I'm gonna show you a little bit of a clip
266. 18:14because Ted Cruz took him to task for it,
267. 18:18but I'm gonna read this
268. 18:18because I wanted to pull the transcript of it.
269. 18:21Tim Caine said, quote,
270. 18:22the notion that rights don't come from laws
271. 18:25and don't come from the government,
272. 18:27but come from the creator,
273. 18:29well, that's what the Iranians believe.
274. 18:34And they do it because they believe that they understand
275. 18:36what natural rights are from their creator.
276. 18:38So the statement that our rights do not come from our laws
277. 18:41or our government is extremely troubling.
278. 18:47I think the motto over the Supreme Court
279. 18:49is equal justice under law.
280. 18:52The oath that you and I take pledge to support
281. 18:54and defend the constitution of the United States
282. 18:57not arbitrarily defined natural rights.
283. 19:01I'm a strong believer in natural rights, really Tim?
284. 19:04Let me get back to the court.
285. 19:05I'm a strong believer in natural rights,
286. 19:07But I have a feeling if we were to have a debate about natural rights in the room and
287. 19:11put people around the table with different religious traditions, there would be some significant
288. 19:16differences in the definitions of those natural rights."
289. 19:20End quote.
290. 19:25U.S. Senator from the State of Virginia, y'all, Tim Caine, objecting to the idea that
291. 19:33rights come from our creator.
292. 19:37It's almost as if Tim Cain has never read nor heard of the words penned by founding father
293. 19:45and fellow Virginian, Thomas Jefferson.
294. 19:48Quote, we hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal and that they
295. 19:55are endowed by their creator, not by government, not by government.
296. 20:03They're endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights that among these are life,
297. 20:10liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
298. 20:11And quote, it's almost as if Tim Cana never heard that before.
299. 20:14He never heard that before.
300. 20:19And why is this so troubling, guys?
301. 20:24As I've mentioned to you, the foundation of the experiment,
302. 20:31the American experiment in individual liberty
303. 20:38was an outflow of the Protestant Reformation revelation
304. 20:46and each individual has a responsibility,
305. 20:48not just the ability, but a responsibility
306. 20:54to navigate God's holy word,
307. 21:01that individual liberty, which was an aberration
308. 21:06from the experiences of mankind in human history,
309. 21:10flow directly from the recognition that all men
310. 21:14are made in the image of God.
311. 21:17So when Tim Caine pauses the notion of equality
312. 21:21under the law against rights coming from the Creator,
313. 21:27you are experiencing the civic and legal equivalent
314. 21:33of what Texas State Representative James Tallarico
315. 21:37and the State Legislative, State Legislative Tour
316. 21:40that I talked about yesterday did with the scripture.
317. 21:46The whole notion of equality under the law only comes
318. 21:50from a recognition that rights come from our creator.
319. 21:53Because it is the recognition that all men are made
320. 21:56in the image of God that forms a bedrock foundation
321. 21:59for the American understanding of equality under the law.
322. 22:08What I'm saying to you that nobody was playing,
323. 22:11you know, my country, Tiz of the in the background,
324. 22:14but for Tim Caine to say this,
325. 22:15it is one of the most un-American statements
326. 22:19that could be uttered.
327. 22:22And you have to, and for me to make that statement, guys,
328. 22:24that this, that is a bold thing for me to say
329. 22:29because we have some crackpots that have said
330. 22:31all kinds of un-American things.
331. 22:33But when I say un-American, you literally have Tim Kaine literally ripping the rug beneath
332. 22:38the very bedrock consideration of our founding.
333. 22:42That mankind and specifically the American citizenry noticed that we're not subjects.
334. 22:47The American citizenry enjoys equality under the law because all men are made by their
335. 22:53creator with equality in his image.
336. 22:59So recognizing that those image bearers rights are pre-political, which means that the image
337. 23:06bearers rights exist in a predate the formation of the modern state is as foundational to our
338. 23:14nation as a foundational consideration to our nation as we have.
339. 23:20But we have a United States senator sitting right now, one of them 100, one of them 100
340. 23:31with the responsibility of providing advice and consent to the president's
341. 23:35nominees to ratify treaties with foreign nations. You want to talk about
342. 23:46the hollowing out of America. This is the philosophical and civic version of
343. 23:50what's happened in many of America's factories around our country where you
344. 23:55know the manufacturing base has been shipped overseas but I would have not
345. 23:59want to remind you who shipped those who shipped that manufacturing base overseas.
346. 24:02See Abraham Lincoln said it.
347. 24:06It wasn't fear of some foreign power coming to overthrow our nation, but the most potent
348. 24:13threat that we face as a nation is domestic.
349. 24:16So we have a United States Senator because of his regressive commitments and the insanity
350. 24:22that his political party is and today who's really willing to give the whole heave hold
351. 24:28to the bedrock understanding that our rights government is not the genesis of our rights.
352. 24:39rights come from the creator. I'll give you a snippet of this tussle in Congress today.
353. 24:46Listen to and watch clip number two, clip two, go.
354. 24:49The notion that rights don't come from laws and don't come from the government that come
355. 24:55from the creator, that's what the Iranian government believes. So the statement that our
356. 25:02rights do not come from our laws or our governments is extremely troubling.
357. 25:08So Senator Kane said in this hearing that he founded a radical and dangerous notion that
358. 25:15you would say our rights came from God and not from government.
359. 25:22I've just walked into the hearing as he was saying that I almost fell out of my chair because
360. 25:28that radical and dangerous notion in his words is literally the founding principle upon which
361. 25:35the United States of America was created.
362. 25:39If you do not believe me, and you made reference to this, Mr. Barnes, then you can believe perhaps
363. 25:46the most prominent Virginian to ever serve Thomas Jefferson, who wrote, in the Declaration
364. 25:55of Independence, we hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal,
365. 26:04that they are endowed by their creator, not by government, not by the Democratic National
366. 26:13Committee, but by God.
367. 26:15Guys, I know this is not going to grab the biggest headlines, but you remember I asked
368. 26:26the question, how long can a nation persist when its elected officials publicly pledge
369. 26:34their loyalty and allegiance to other countries?
370. 26:38You remember old girl who said, you know, she was first,
371. 26:42you know, before she was American,
372. 26:44she was Guatemala and I believe that's what she said.
373. 26:48When we had people that are in our government,
374. 26:57and they like hesitate at the notion that,
375. 27:03say, bro, government doesn't create, right?
376. 27:07Government's highest efficacy.
377. 27:09These are things we used to know guys.
378. 27:10This is why we used to read
379. 27:12George Washington's farewell address in school.
380. 27:19The U.S. Constitution was written to be consumed, understood,
381. 27:23digested and debated around America's dinner tables.
382. 27:30I did a radical thing in my con law class that I taught last school year.
383. 27:38That before we got to the Constitution, we have to read the declaration of
384. 27:41independence. Why? Because the declaration of independence is the vision statement
385. 27:45for the nation.
386. 27:46The U.S. Constitution was created to implement the vision from the Declaration.
387. 27:54And we have a U.S. Senator who was trying to be our Vice President,
388. 27:59who said it was very troubling to him to hear that a nominee dare suggest that our rights come from
389. 28:11God. Guys, oh guys, guys, this is U.S. Senator. We have entire public school districts that you
390. 28:24can't find a student that's proficient in math and proficient in reading. No wonder you have
391. 28:32people who may be well-intentioned, maybe, but they want to vote for a Marxist. There was a time
392. 28:43in our nation's history where if there was a person who was serving in government who would
393. 28:47just suggest that government is the genesis of our rights. I mean, not even that long ago. Do you
394. 28:56Do you remember when Bill Clinton?
395. 29:00I did not know what that was.
396. 29:03You remember in his inaugural address,
397. 29:04one of the things he said,
398. 29:06the era of big government is over.
399. 29:09Remember that?
400. 29:10That was a Democrat saying that.
401. 29:15Guys, this is further evidence.
402. 29:19I'm gonna say it again.
403. 29:21Further evidence, but we have exemplified for us in scripture.
404. 29:26How do you get from a coming across the water on dry ground?
405. 29:34come, how you get from manna by day, pillar of cloud by day, pillar of fire by night.
406. 29:42Oh, the Israelites served the Lord during the days of Joshua. Yes. And even the elders who
407. 29:47survived Joshua. Oh, but when you got past them, what happened? Oh, I understand. Look,
408. 29:57at him, he said, but he didn't mean it. Oh, listen, I get it. Certainly I don't believe Bill Clinton
409. 30:02believed that, but he had to say it. Why did he have to say it? Because of where the American people
410. 30:09Listen, I know Bill Clinton was a miscreant through and through, corrupt, biblically speaking,
411. 30:17corrupt internally, through and through.
412. 30:20But he had to say things like that because of where the American people were.
413. 30:25That's what I'm saying, because of the where the American people were.
414. 30:29Guys, we have bred and circus ourselves to the place, to where there's a willing forfeiture
415. 30:41of what the U.S. has become.
416. 30:42And I've explained before the cycle of nations and the way things work, that we become such
417. 30:51a materially successful and wealthy nation that we have the luxury of abandoning our
418. 31:02founding.
419. 31:04And when I say our founding, don't think I'm just talking about, oh, say, can you?
420. 31:11I'm talking about being anchored on the rock, being anchored on the rock.
421. 31:18I most enduring need is repentance, man.
422. 31:21If we continue as we are,
423. 31:26if we misunderstand this reprieve that God has given us,
424. 31:30we misconstrue it as bad as things were.
425. 31:37In the previous four years, I shut it to say,
426. 31:44shut it to say what we could be facing thereafter.
427. 31:52And listen, I don't say that from a position of fear,
428. 31:54not at all, because God appointed us for this time.
429. 31:57Understand Act 17,
430. 32:01but we need to understand where we are.
431. 32:04We need to understand where we are.
432. 32:05We need to understand the urgency of the moment.
433. 32:08I'm greatly concerned that we don't have a sufficient amount
434. 32:10of urgency for the moment that we're in.
435. 32:15We have to be about our father's business, man.
436. 32:18Because these types of things persist.
437. 32:26Pastor Carl said we have a little bit of time,
438. 32:28but not much.
439. 32:32If you have a Bible, don't just have it, read it.
440. 32:37Because it will often read like front page news.
441. 32:44The government is not the genesis of rights.
442. 32:46Rights flow from the Creator, and they are intrinsic to those who are made in His image.
443. 33:01God is at work and He's calling His people to rise in truth.

459. 34:00John MacArthur's Memorial Service. This is David Wheaton, host of the Christian World
460. 34:05View. Internationally known Pastor John MacArthur entered Heaven in mid-July at the age of 86.
461. 34:13His memorial service was recently held at Grace Community Church in Los Angeles where he
462. 34:17be pastored for 56 years.
463. 34:19It was not so much a celebration of life as a worship service to God for the grace and
464. 34:25gifts he bestowed on MacArthur's life in ministry.
465. 34:29MacArthur often stated that he so admired the Apostle Paul.
466. 34:33They shared the same mission for to me to live as Christ and to die as gain.
467. 34:39Here are most recent programs with guest Matt MacArthur, eldest son of John MacArthur,

472. 34:59The Hamilton Quarter Podcast and One-Minute Common Terrets are available at AFR.net.
473. 35:10Back to the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
474. 35:15Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton the third here.
475. 35:18As I mentioned earlier, Florida Surgeon General, Dr. Joseph Lidapo, announced today, along
476. 35:24with Florida's Governor Ron DeSantis, that it will be the first in the nation to move to
477. 35:32end all vaccine mandates.
478. 35:35Listen to a watch clip number one, where Dr. Lidapo makes the announcement clip one.
479. 35:40Go.
480. 35:41What I'm most excited about is an announcement that we're going to make that we're making
481. 35:48now, which is that the Florida Department of Health in partnership with the Governor is
482. 35:55going to be working to end all vaccine mandates in Florida law.
483. 36:01All of them, all of them, every last one of them, every last one of them, every last one
484. 36:21One of them is wrong and drips with disdain and slavery.
485. 36:28Who am I as a government or anyone else?
486. 36:32Who am I as a man standing here now to tell you what you should put in your body?
487. 36:40Who am I?
488. 36:43What your child should put in your body?
489. 36:47I don't have that right.
490. 36:49Your body is a gift from God.
491. 36:55body is a gift from God. Florida continues to try to lead the nation in freedom. This is
492. 37:04oh boy. What is audience is sharp. Pamela says, so when is the lawsuit going to roll out?
493. 37:09Boy, I'm telling you, y'all are sharp boy. Y'all know what's going to happen. You know
494. 37:14it's going to happen. You know what's going to happen. So the government can give you
495. 37:18all kinds of things and mandate them. But when they say we're not going to mandate anymore,
496. 37:22Now you're gonna sue.
497. 37:23Hehehehehe.
498. 37:24Well I applaud Dr. Laudapo, I applaud Governor Ron DeSantis.
499. 37:29With this I find it very interesting that this is happening at the exact same time that
500. 37:33the CDC is having its study of the effects of, or should I say the study of vaccine related
501. 37:41injuries.
502. 37:43I find it very interesting.
503. 37:47I find it interesting that it's happening as you have this kind of, I guess I'll say,
504. 37:52in the CDC, that flies in the face,
505. 37:58and what, at a minimum, nearly a half century of orthodoxy.
506. 38:04It's very, very interesting.
507. 38:05And the whole notion, we have mandates and things like this,
508. 38:10the presumption is that government cares more
509. 38:12about people's children than the parents do.
510. 38:15That's a presumption.
511. 38:18You know, we have to have a government
512. 38:19because we have to protect children from their parents.
513. 38:22know, and obviously I'm keenly aware in a fallen world, you have all kinds of
514. 38:26exceptions that are horrible exceptions, but they are just that the exceptions, you
515. 38:32know. I have someone trying to argue with me when I talked about my commitment to
516. 38:41discipling my children in a home and advocating for parents to take the
517. 38:45responsibility of training and teaching their children at home. And I was like,
518. 38:49Abraham, don't you know some parents and beautiful children?"
519. 38:53And I said, yeah.
520. 38:56Have you ever heard of a circumstance where a child got abused at school?
521. 39:02That never happens, right?
522. 39:06That never happens.
523. 39:08So if I can show you the exponential amount of cases where children were abused at school
524. 39:13by teachers, by coaches, by administrators, by fellow students, would you then join me in
525. 39:18advocating for the closure of the government schools?
526. 39:23Y'all know how that went.
527. 39:25Y'all know how that went.
528. 39:26So yes, there are exceptions, but the exception should never be treated as if they're the rule.
529. 39:35You know, because I just happen to know that there are certain people who say,
530. 39:39well, they're not your children.
531. 39:39They're our children.
532. 39:42So what now?
533. 39:44And you very often have the very people who are advocating to control my children,
534. 39:48your children, not always, but often,
535. 39:51these people who don't even have their own children, but they're going to tell you what to do with yours.
536. 39:54So I applaud Florida. I applaud Governor
537. 40:00Ron DeSantis for letting parents choose
538. 40:03what's best for the children. If the
539. 40:04parents want their children to get these
540. 40:06shots let the parents do it but the
541. 40:08government shouldn't make them. That's
542. 40:15that's a simple concept but I know it's
543. 40:18a big deal for them to come out and say
544. 40:20that forthrightly. I know for a fact the
545. 40:23big pharmaceutical companies are not
546. 40:24happy with the state of Florida. Oh I
547. 40:26knew that. Oh I knew that but it's the
548. 40:30right course of action. It's the right course of action. Then you have this little diddy
549. 40:37on the other side of the pond and I'm sharing this for several reasons. One, the regressive
550. 40:45ism that transpires on the other side of the Atlantic, often forecast what you'd expect
551. 40:50it to happen or at least what many want to see happen in our own country. And to show
552. 41:00just how you can have former bastions of,
553. 41:05I would argue, emago day intrinsic freedoms
554. 41:08to be encroached upon very quickly.
555. 41:10What am I talking about?
556. 41:12You have this Irish comedian,
557. 41:15I have his name here, Graham Linahan.
558. 41:18Now this has nothing to do, I'm not a fan of Graham Linahan.
559. 41:22I don't know his worldview, I don't endorse his worldview.
560. 41:26But anybody who's arrested for making jokes
561. 41:34on the artist falling on his Twitter.
562. 41:37That's a problem.
563. 41:38Graham Linnahan was in Arizona,
564. 41:41but he lives, but he's Irish, you know.
565. 41:43And he flew back to the UK, flew into London,
566. 41:47and was arrested at Heathrow Airport by five,
567. 41:51by five armed police officers.
568. 41:59I'm sure there's nothing these police officers
569. 42:01are gonna be doing in Europe.
570. 42:02I mean, in London in particular, right?
571. 42:04There certainly is not, there aren't any roving gangs
572. 42:07that are abusing young ladies in public in London.
573. 42:11Certainly that's not happening.
574. 42:13Or they're taking the Shawshank Redemption to the streets.
575. 42:20The London shanks are abounding.
576. 42:23Well they slice and then dice and they nut nice
577. 42:25and all on the streets of London.
578. 42:26But they're gonna spare five police officers
579. 42:30to show up to arrest a comedian.
580. 42:34And here's the thing, for three posts he made in April
581. 42:40In April, listen to a brief report on this.
582. 42:45Clip number three, clip three, oh, and that's part of it too.
583. 42:48He dare, he had the audacity to take on the trans gang in his jokes.
584. 42:55So that gets you a night in the pokey.
585. 42:58Listen to and watch clip number three, clip three, go.
586. 43:00Comedian Graham Lenaham was arrested at Heathrow Airport in the UK, over past social media posts
587. 43:07he made on transgender issues.
588. 43:09The 57-year-old said that five armed officers arrested him after he flew into the U.K. from
589. 43:16Arizona.
590. 43:17In a statement, police said the man in his 50s was arrested on suspicion of inciting violence.
591. 43:23This is in relation to posts on X after being taken to police custody.
592. 43:28Officers became concerned for his health and he was taken to hospital.
593. 43:32Linahan responded to the arrest saying, I was arrested at an airport like a terrorist, locked
594. 43:38in a cell like a criminal taken to the hospital because the stress nearly killed me and banned
595. 43:44from speaking online, all because I made jokes that upset some psychotic trust-dressers.
596. 43:50To me, this proves one thing beyond doubt the UK has become a country that is hostile
597. 43:55to freedom of speech.
598. 43:59Even the head of the Metropolitan Police Department in London are saying, yeah, we need to make
599. 44:07some changes. We shouldn't have to dedicate manpower to arrest somebody because they're
600. 44:13making jokes on social media. Now, how much do you think progressives in our own country
601. 44:30would love to see the exact same thing happen? I mean, if you have roving bands of sexual
602. 44:40assaulters or they won't be arrested in London. But the comedian cracking jokes. Five armed
603. 44:52police officers, what are they going to do? He's going to knock knock a comedian in the
604. 44:57police officer get off the airplane. Like this is absurd guys. This is this is I'm sorry.
605. 45:05This is so stupid. But these folks can't these folks can't be bothered to deal with
606. 45:13the knifing that's happening all over London. But they're going to arrest the comedian at
607. 45:17at the airport.
608. 45:19Now I'll go back to my question.
609. 45:20How much do you think that some of the same folks,
610. 45:24you know the same people, oh yeah, no I'm going there.
611. 45:27Oh boy, I'm telling you I love this audience boy.
612. 45:30The same people who,
613. 45:33they don't want to debate mRNA technologies.
614. 45:35They just, if you mention it, shut it down.
615. 45:37You can't speak about it.
616. 45:38The same people, hey, Mark Zuckerberg's with your,
617. 45:41with your gold chain and your new throw.
618. 45:43Listen, there's something that's coming and it might,
619. 45:46wink, wink.
620. 45:47It smells kind of like the rubles.
621. 45:55It's Vladimir all over Vladimir.
622. 46:00The same people.
623. 46:02Oh, the laptop, shut it down, shut it down, shut it down.
624. 46:06I said, how long do you think,
625. 46:08or should I say it better?
626. 46:11How much do you think there are people in our country
627. 46:13that would love to do that?
628. 46:15I know it's a fact because I saw all of the glowing pieces
629. 46:18when the Chinese social credit score is made popular
630. 46:20and how so many of the talking heads
631. 46:23at the New York slimes and all the many
632. 46:25of the other lying outlets are saying,
633. 46:26oh, we need to adopt some form of system similar to that.
634. 46:31You know, remember the people are saying that we should,
635. 46:34we should lock everybody up who refuses to take the shots.
636. 46:38Remember that?
637. 46:40And then I remember how all these things,
638. 46:41aw, shucks, let bygons be bygons.
639. 46:45Okay, we were wrong, but yeah, no.
640. 46:52be beware of the connection between those with a penchant for censorship and totalitarianism.
641. 47:08Beware, beware. Now this guy, I don't know much about him, this comedian, I from what I understand
642. 47:16that I'll just say this way, we do not share worldviews, okay. But the idea that he needs to
643. 47:22to be arrested for cracking these jokes and to think to think like, okay, he can't crack
644. 47:29jokes in a society and he can't question, okay.
645. 47:39So why are we doing this thing called biological males and females?
646. 47:44Like, isn't that an oxymoron?
647. 47:47We have a society that is saying that you cannot assert truth publicly.
648. 47:52Guys, what kind of society is that?
649. 47:57You can't, you know, you have the first amendment considerations in and of itself.
650. 48:00Yes.
651. 48:02But then when we know for, and as you've heard me say numerous times, the reality of sex, human
652. 48:10sex, mayowness and femianess is ascertainable, identifiable, and evident at the cell you're
653. 48:19learned level, at the cell you learn level.
654. 48:22If we cannot say that publicly, what kind of society do we have?
655. 48:29If we cannot say that there's a difference between a woman and a dude who thinks he's
656. 48:37a woman, what kind of society do we have?
657. 48:41How can we have a society that is steeped in virtue if we can't even tell the truth publicly?
658. 48:53No one is advocating for being hostile or mean or anything like that, but we've got to
659. 49:01We have to be able to tell the truth.
660. 49:04We have to be able to tell the truth.
661. 49:07What I mentioned earlier, but our audience,
662. 49:09I love our audience here because they understand,
663. 49:12y'all could try that if you want,
664. 49:14but we've had a second amendment in America
665. 49:16for a very long time.
666. 49:19And so I have that and understand that,
667. 49:21but I just wonder how far will we go?
668. 49:24How far are we willing to go?
669. 49:27I certainly do not want chaos.
670. 49:30I certainly do not want violence and that, not at all.
671. 49:36But if we have a society that wants to literally lock people up
672. 49:42for certain true facts,
673. 49:46literally want to jail people, isolate people,
674. 49:52concentration camp people,
675. 49:54because you trying to operation warp speed me,
676. 49:57but I'm not so sure I wanna be on a warp speed.
677. 50:02And so while I'm pondering and researching,
678. 50:04you wanna lock me up because I don't agree?
679. 50:08Guys, a seismic shift is afoot.
680. 50:12We need to understand the times that we're in.
681. 50:15and also we need to understand what we are to do in those times.
682. 50:22Make no mistake about it.
683. 50:24Make no mistake about it.
684. 50:26God remains on the throne.
685. 50:30Let's live for the glory that came man.
686. 50:33Y'all have a great evening.
