0:00Darkness is not an affirmative force.
0:03It simply reoccupies the space vacated by the light.
0:06This is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
0:11It should be uncomfortable for a believer to live as a hypocrite.
0:15Delivery people out of the bondage of mainstream media.
0:18And the philosophies of this world.
0:20God has called you and me to be his ambassador.
0:24Even in this dark moment.
0:26Let's not miss our moment.
0:28And now the Hamilton Corner.
0:31Good evening, everyone.
0:35Welcome to the Hamilton Corner.
0:37My name is Abraham Hamilton the third broadcasting live from Constitution City, Texas.
0:44I am in the home of Rick Green, founder and president of the Patriot Academy, also co-host
0:50of At the Core, heard right here on American Family Radio each day in the afternoon.
0:56I am so delighted to be here and the broadcast for you live here.
1:00We are here because I voter guide, which is a division of American Family Association
1:05action, a F.A. action is having their meeting.
1:10Excuse me here on campus.
1:12And so my wife is involved in some translation things there.
1:15She's in studio, so I'm looking over there.
1:17And so that's why we're here.
1:19Man, I am so excited.
1:21I have to tell you being here has been the only word I can use to describe it has been inspirational
1:28For me, we're planning to have our brother Rick green in a few moments starting in the second segment to have a conversation with him
1:34The things God is moving in him to do the vision he has for Patriot Academy
1:38The things that God has moved him to do in the run up to
1:43The 250th anniversary of the United States of America, which if you're unaware the Declaration of Independence is the birth date of
1:50of our nation I have said many times that the vision,
1:54the charter for the United States of America,
1:56is in fact the Declaration of Independence.
1:59Our Constitution is the implementation vehicle
2:02for the vision articulated in the Declaration.
2:04Great tragedy has befallen our nation
2:08because there have been efforts to navigate
2:09our Constitution estranged from our Declaration of Independence.
2:14So we're gonna get into all of that
2:16as we progress throughout the program today.
2:17At this very moment, many of you,
2:19if not most of you are making your transition from your part time jobs, where you generate
2:24an income to your full time jobs, where you cultivate an outcome.
2:28And as you do so, I want to remind you as we do on a daily basis to do so on a daily basis
2:33to do so with intentionality, understanding the primacy that God places on family.
2:40What goes on in your house is far more important than what goes on in the White House.
2:45The purpose of that statement is not to minimize or to denigrate what transpires in the White
2:50House, but it's simply to accurately punctuate what goes on in your home.
2:55Simply put, you are directly responsible.
2:57I am directly responsible for the things that happen in my home, for the things that happen
3:01within my control.
3:02I am directly responsible for that.
3:05And all too often, many people have, so to speak, gaze into the sky.
3:10Sky, sky, sky.
3:12and what's going on in Washington, Washington, Washington.
3:15And we don't even know what's on our teenager's cell phones.
3:20That's a problem.
3:21That's a huge problem.
3:22But by God's grace, you and I will be a part of reversing that.
3:26And we take full advantage of the opportunities we get to
3:29in our homes, starting in our homes
3:31that we refuse to be manipulated by national headlines,
3:34international headlines, but we will live locally,
3:37executing our King's Commission starting first
3:39in our home and working outward from there.
3:43And this, just in case you thought,
3:44I forgot, I haven't forgotten.
3:46We still have my man, 100 grand, Mr. Bobby,
3:49ha-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra.
3:51Behind the board, but he's not with me here
3:54in Constitution City, unfortunately.
3:55But you gotta come, you gotta come, man.
3:58It's quite a sight to be here.
3:59And we have produced extraordinary, often imitated,
4:01never duplicated the real Jay Mac
4:03is making sure we can bring the video
4:08portion of the program to you as you can see. We're in Rick Green's
4:11tavern. We're in the tavern and he explains to his audience all the
4:16time that the tavern was a place where during our founding era,
4:19much business was transacted. Communication, articulation of the
4:23views for liberty and freedom. And so he'll be here to explain all
4:27of that. I am delighted and really it is a privilege and an
4:31honor for me to be broadcast from these grounds. I am confident
4:37that as we go forward, Constitution City, Texas,
4:40home of the Patriot Academy will be a critical outpost
4:47for the execution of God's will for our land going forward,
4:50and so I'm delighted to be here.
4:52As we do on a daily basis, we are going to now turn
4:55to the word of God.
4:55If you're new to the program, welcome.
4:57Especially to those in Des Moines, Iowa,
5:00the listening area, KJMC, 89.3 FM.
5:03That's the newest station added to the ARF R fold.
5:06we are glad to have you. But each day we start the program, we do so by turning to God's word,
5:11because we want to make sure that our hearts and minds are lined accordingly with God's word
5:17before we endeavor to navigate the issues of the day. All too often people attempt to address
5:22the issues of the day by setting God's word aside, which is frankly how we've gotten to where we
5:28are as a country. It's like we have become the person described in scripture, the man that's
5:35It's a hearer only of God's word, but not a doer.
5:39It's forgotten what sort of man he ought to be,
5:42but we're gonna turn to the Lord's word.
5:45And today we're gonna start in the Gospel recorded by Levi,
5:47also known as Matthew.
5:49Matthew chapter 16, verses 13 through 18.
5:52Matthew chapter 16, verses 13 through 18
5:55is where we're gonna begin the program today.
5:57And I'm gonna read the text and then kinda dig into it
5:59a little bit and this is what God's word says here.
6:02Now, when Jesus came into the district
6:04of Caesarea Philippi, he was asking his disciples,
6:08who do people say the Son of Man is?
6:12And they said, some say John the Baptist,
6:15and others Elijah, but still others Jeremiah,
6:20or one of the prophets.
6:22He, meaning Jesus said to them,
6:24but who do you say that I am?
6:27Simon Peter answered, you are the Christ,
6:31the Son of the living God.
6:33And Jesus said to him, blessed are you, Simon Barjona,
6:38because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you,
6:40but my Father who was in heaven,
6:43I also say to you that you are Peter,
6:46and upon this rock, I will build my church,
6:50and the gates of Hades will not overpower it.
6:56This portion of scripture is profound
6:59for a number of reasons.
7:02Chief among them, Jesus communicates with clarity,
7:08no ambiguity whatsoever,
7:11concerning his articulation of the destiny
7:14for what he describes as his church.
7:19The gates of hell will not prevail.
7:22The gates of Hades will not prevail against his church.
7:26In the process of doing so,
7:28Jesus being a wordsmith refers to Simon,
7:31who's almost like a nickname referred to as Petros or Rock,
7:35and a bit of a wordplay when Jesus says,
7:38flesh and blood has not revealed this to you.
7:40But my Father in heaven has revealed this to you.
7:43Notice the term this has translated into English.
7:45You see the tones and tenses in the Greek.
7:47You see it very clearly.
7:49Flesh and blood has not revealed this to you.
7:53And upon this revelation, Peter, I will build my church.
7:57Jesus was not saying that Peter was the rock.
8:00all throughout scripture, Jesus is the chief cornerstone
8:04from the Hebrew scriptures, the messianic prophecies,
8:07of the stone of stumbling all throughout the New Testament,
8:10Jesus is consistently described as a chief cornerstone.
8:13The rock that the church of Jesus Christ is built upon
8:17is the revelation that he is in fact Messiah.
8:20He is in fact the promised Messiah.
8:22He is the fulfillment of Deuteronomy 18.
8:24He is Yeshua Hamashiyok.
8:27Peter is not the rock.
8:29He's using word play there.
8:31That describing Peter, Petros,
8:34but he said, but on this rock,
8:35the revelation that I am Messiah,
8:37I will build my church.
8:39Great misunderstanding has unfolded.
8:43Frankly, bad doctrine has unfolded
8:45because of a mischashrul of this one portion of scripture,
8:49but the rock is the fact that Yeshua is Messiah.
8:52There's no longer any need to look for Him for He has come.
8:56We are approaching the time and frankly,
9:00it really really bugs me that we kind of drive by,
9:02thanksgiving in terms of celebrations of holidays
9:05in our country, even because of the commerciality
9:07concerning Christmas and all of these things.
9:11And December 25th is not his birthday
9:14and all this kind of stuff.
9:16The fact is, Messiah was incarnated.
9:19He is the incarnate Messiah who lived a sinless life, died,
9:24not for his own sin, but for the sins of humanity.
9:29And the reality of the incarnation has his greatest efficacy in the fact of the resurrection.
9:35The incarnation is what leads to the crucifixion of the spotless lamb as foreshadowed by the Passover.
9:44And the spotless lamb that was crucified for the sins of the world,
9:50Intumned, resurrected on the third day as the Scriptures foretold that the entirety of the gospel punctuated,
9:59or should I said, fulfilled in the resurrection? Well, the incarnation is a vital component of that.
10:05And as we have the wonderful opportunity to celebrate the incarnation of Messiah on our national holiday schedule,
10:13following Thanksgiving, there should be a seamless flow from Thanksgiving into the
10:19worship-filled town where we regard the Holy One in full reverence and awe and
10:26appreciation for the incarnation. But the destiny that Jesus proclaimed here is
10:31very clear it is unambiguous that the gates of Hades will not prevail against
10:36the Lord's Church. I've talked before about the reality that gates are defensive
10:41structures they're meant to keep an advancing affirmative force out. It is Hades
10:46that is on the defense but what often we fail to recognize and y'all know I say
10:51it all the time darkness is not an affirmative force but it merely reoccupies
10:54the space that is vacated by the light but one of the unique things I won't say
10:58unique things one of the features of darkness however it has a good
11:01marketing team and the ubiquity of the darkness is often conflated with the
11:06potency of the darkness but Jesus said the gates of Hades will not prevail against
11:11his church. And so what I'm driving towards with this is a simple reminder of the fact that
11:15this is what Jesus said. This is not the opinion of some talking head on some television network.
11:20There's not somebody on talk radio given their opinion. This is what Jesus said about his church.
11:25And I've been saying lately consistently, we can if we will. If we would recognize that as Jesus
11:32commanded his offspring to execute his commission, he commanded us to do so upon his authority.
11:38His authority is the authorizing force for us executing his commission.
11:43And it is upon his authority that we advance in expanding the Lord's kingdom being established
11:49in the hearts and minds of people.
11:51And the Lord has blessed us, who are citizens of this great nation, to inherit a nation to
11:57where our founding charter recognizes that man's rights that are inalienable, that inalienability
12:03is directly due to them being given to us by the Creator.
12:07This is a pre-political observation.
12:11And with this pre-political observation,
12:13we can, if we will, if we would recognize
12:17who we are in Christ Jesus
12:20and respond to what He called us to,
12:22not responding on our own zeal and our own emotion
12:26and our own humanistic natural potency,
12:28but we respond in humble submission
12:30and obedience to what Jesus commanded us.
12:34You know, I said previously,
12:36of regressive force in our country,
12:38forces in our country, tries to wield terms
12:40like Christian nationalism to cause the Christian
12:44to be afraid in our country to live according
12:46to what we profess to be true.
12:48You know, and to try to destabilize and entire
12:51and swath the members of the Lord's bride in our nation.
12:53And then the Crescent News Network let the cat
12:55out of the bag that had an old girl on TV
12:57who finally defined what she meant by Christian nationalism.
13:02She said, oh, can you believe it?
13:04these people actually believe that rights come from God and not from government.
13:10Yeah, kind of like Thomas Jefferson wrote our declaration.
13:15Yeah, kind of like our nation was founded upon.
13:17And we've become so, we've drifted so far away from where we were formed to be, that
13:24you even have people like Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia that will say, oh, rights don't
13:29come from God, rights come from government.
13:32And this is a sitting US Senator that was a former candidate for the Vice Presidency.
13:39I highlight that to show how far a field we've fallen.
13:42And for those that would say, well, you know, Abraham, the Kingdom of God is establishing
13:49the hearts and minds of people who says that has any relationship to government.
13:57And I would simply say, very simply, the same God who is described in Acts 17, that he determined
14:05the boundaries of our habitation.
14:06He determined the times in which we would live.
14:08And he did so so that men should seek God.
14:11And he expects from us and our day in the 21st century in the nation where he's planted
14:15us to be and do no less than the Apostle Paul did in his day.
14:18That it was the Apostle Paul's knowledge of the civic appellate process as a Roman citizen
14:24that led to the gospel invading the upper echelons of Roman society.
14:29It is how we got the concluding salutation of Paul C.
14:33Pissle to the Philippians when he says,
14:35the saints of the Lord Jesus Christ greet you, including those in Caesar's household brothers
14:41and sisters, we can if we will.
14:44God has ordained you and I for this moment.
14:48With all of the craziness swirling around us, let's not miss our moment.
14:52Jesus said the gates of Hades won't prevail against his church.
15:00A discipleship minute with Joseph Parker,
15:03not being alert, making unwise decisions,
15:06moving without a sense of urgency,
15:08any and all of these actions in wartime
15:11can literally cause someone to get killed.
15:14Psalm 91 is a unique weapon in scripture
15:17that addresses many of the perils in life.
15:19Using this weapon daily helps us to be prepared
15:22from many of the attacks.
15:24The devil may utilize consistently against us.
15:27Our encouragement to you is to pray Psalm 91 every single day
15:33over yourself and over your family.
15:35Because remember, in the dangerous crazy world
15:37we live in, no one can protect you.
15:39Like the Lord, King Lord,
15:40anointed so fresh with a spirit of grace and mercy
15:43that would empower us to be warrior minded believers
15:47who are absolutely every day, praying Psalm 91
15:50as well as putting other weapons to work
15:52Fruitfully and wisely in Jesus name we do pray. Amen.
16:04Shining light into the darkness. This is the Hamilton corner on American family radio.
16:10Welcome back to the Hamilton corner. Abraham Hamilton III here. I'm delighted as I've already mentioned I am in the honorable Rick Green's Tavern
16:18the former Texas state legislative
16:21legislator
16:22founder and president of Patriot Academy also one half of the at the core hosting dynamic duo
16:28I'm speaking of none other than my brother in Christ man a man who I respect and revere
16:34Also who we share the same bar my first bar admission was in Texas by the way. Yeah
16:38Is none of them than Rick Green we are at in his studio on his campus that the Lord has entrusted his stewardship
16:46It is a pleasure and an honor and I've already said it has been such an inspiration to me just to be here
16:59we do here and always glad to be on the program with you.
17:02Oh man.
17:03Just occurred to me.
17:03You're the third and I'm a second.
17:05So you know, because I'm junior.
17:07Yeah.
17:07And my son is the third.
17:08So yeah, I was just talking about that.
17:10So yeah, my dad likes to think that means he gets to be called ACE.
17:15And that's a new one for me.
17:17Now I want to start with this because I introduced today's show
17:21broadcasting live from Constitution City, Texas.
17:25What is Constitution City, Texas?
17:27what can the audience here learn about that phenomenon?
17:30Yeah, we decided that we wanted that be an actual municipality.
17:34We're in an unincorporated area of the county.
17:36So you can form a new municipality if you have enough people
17:39in the geography and everything, and you do everything, right?
17:42And we just thought it'd be cool.
17:43First of all, just from a marketing perspective,
17:45it sounds cool, right?
17:46It does.
17:46It's the constitution in, the constitution city, Texas.
17:48But also, we've got students that come here year round,
17:51and it gives them a chance to participate in city government,
17:53to actually do real government, not just do the legislative
17:57you know, simulations that we do, but actually be a part of serving on the council or in some way
18:03just, you know, monitoring or at least figuring out here's how city government works, here's how
18:07you interact with the county and the state, and it's just a really good practical applied civics
18:12lesson for the people that come here and our students here. But I just love the idea that once we get
18:16independence all built, you go to study the Constitution and independence all in Constitution City, Texas.
18:21Oh, that's fantastic. Well, since you mentioned that, well, let's talk about that,
18:25of the vision that you have to really construct,
18:29reconstruct, I should say, independence hall right here
18:32in Constitution City, Texas,
18:33as part of the vision you have for this place.
18:35Yeah, you know, the main goal here,
18:37we can do it in metal buildings, whatever, you know,
18:39is just to bring people here and study
18:41and actually get fired up and get equipped
18:44and then go back home and be good citizens,
18:46just be good salt and light wherever they live.
18:49So we don't have to have something like independence hall,
18:52but that's my favorite room in all of history.
18:53I mean, I love Independence Hall and being able to step back in time.
18:57And I know from experience of taking people there and teaching the
19:00Constitution in that room, you just learn more.
19:02Whenever you feel like you're a reliving history, you pay attention more.
19:07You know, there's something about it.
19:09And so it's going to be the crown jewel of the campus.
19:12And the reason is to give people that chance to step back in time, do some
19:16real study and go home inspired to be like the fountain father.
19:20It's fantastic.
19:20While we were here, and I mentioned earlier that the iVotogai team
19:23having this training session right here. My wife and I were just wandering around the committee room.
19:29Yes. Yes. And we stumbled on a class that was actually taking place at the mall. I'm like,
19:34hey, we need to be quiet because they're actually in class. No, you should have gone in and taken
19:37over and done some teaching. You would have been great, man. No, somebody else is teaching. And
19:41this dude's like, you're okay. You're okay. But it's phenomenal what's happening here. Among the
19:45things that have been so inspirational to me are simply those young people that we were able to see
19:50learning the proper understanding of the Founders Constitution, the proper interaction
19:54between the Declaration of Independence and the Founders Constitution. I've said
19:57repeatedly on this program that the vision and mission statement for the nation is
20:01the Declaration, that the Constitution is the implementation mechanism, that there's
20:04no way we can arrive at proper constitutional interpretation if it's severed from the
20:09Declaration of Independence. And here we are now literally a stone's throw just a year
20:13away from the 250th anniversary of that Declaration of Independence. What a neat
20:17It's time to be alive, man.
20:18I mean, we get to be kind of the rebirth of that freedom,
20:21right, that rekindling on the 250th of all of those ideas,
20:25everything that you just said.
20:27I know I shouldn't ask you this on the air,
20:28but you know, actually, you think I'd get in much trouble
20:31with Debbie and I voter if we pulled you out tomorrow
20:33for an hour and gave you some time with the students,
20:35because I'd love for them to hear from you.
20:36No, I don't think so.
20:37We have any problem.
20:38We have one thing to do at 11 in the morning,
20:40but other than doing a devotion to the morning.
20:42Then at 11 I have one deal, but I have a free reign.
20:44Let's talk for you right here,
20:45I just think they're showing the evening again.
20:47Okay, good, good, good, good, because you know, they get to hear from a lot of different people
20:51who had Frank Gaffney here a few weeks ago.
20:53He's the Center for Security Policy Founder and now he's doing some new stuff.
20:57But in fact, we're sitting there talking, I got Frank in front of the kids and I'm asking
21:00him about all kinds of stuff, you know, China and the whole meeting with between Trump and
21:05Xi Jinping.
21:06And he was saying, you know, this could be Reykjavik, this could be where Reagan and Gorbachev,
21:09you know, and Reagan had to say no in order to get to the point.
21:12And he's telling me stories and all of a sudden I realized
21:15as the way that he was telling the story,
21:16I went, wait, Frank, were you at Reykjavik?
21:19And he's like, oh yeah, I was part of that.
21:21I was a sister, you know, I was like,
21:22we're gonna hear from a guy that was in the room.
21:25Yeah.
21:26With Reykjavik and Gorichob.
21:27So anyway, the kids got to hear from Frank
21:29and Daniel Horwitz and all these other people.
21:31So I would be thrilled if you'd be willing
21:33to talk home for a bit.
21:34I'd be honored to do so.
21:35I'd be honored to do so.
21:36Now I tossed the question your way
21:38because I listened as you addressed
21:39that I have a older guy team this morning
21:41and you made a point that is worth echoing, emphasizing, underscoring and highlighting that
21:46250 years usually are a telling time in any nation's history.
21:52What's the significance of 250 years of story?
21:54And unfortunately, it's usually when you fall apart, it's just kind of that cycle of nations
21:59that kind of lines up with the laws of nature and nature as God.
22:01It's the nature of man to get lazy when you have freedom and you've had it good and you've
22:05had success.
22:06And so it's that old meme of tough times make tough tough times make good tough men, tough
22:10men make good times, good times make soft men, and then soft men lead you back into tough
22:14time. So usually at about 250 great civilizations fall apart. And of course we saw that in the
22:20last 20 years, America was headed just like Robert Bork said 40 years ago, slouching towards
22:26Gamora, right? We were starting to crumble because we gave up the principles that made
22:30us strong in the first place. But we've got a real chance here at a resurgence because there's
22:36an interest like never before and because our declaration does give us the philosophy,
22:42very easy to understand if we'll teach it and the Constitution gives us the tools to be
22:47able to revive the Republic.
22:49And I don't know yet.
22:50I'm trying not to be overly optimistic.
22:51You know, if I'm a, you know, glasses half full guy and sometimes I'm too optimistic too
22:55quickly.
22:56So I'm trying to be measured in my analysis, but it feels like right now to me we're in a
23:02a revival and enough people are waking up that we have a really good chance instead of
23:07falling apart at 250 to actually have a revitalization.
23:10And if the Lord terries have another 250 years now, hope it comes back next week messes up
23:14all my plans, but no man knows today, right?
23:16So we have to do our duty and if when he comes back be found working and try not staring
23:22at the sky clouds and hoping he goes back.
23:24So I want to do everything I can to if it's 250 if he's not, you know, maybe a thousand
23:30for what comes back.
23:31I want to make sure I hand my kids and my grandkids a nation
23:33that could last another 250 years.
23:36What are some of those things you mentioned
23:37that may be indicative of a form of revival
23:42that I'll just tell you plainly,
23:44if you don't mind, just get it out of the way.
23:46What are some of the things that you recognize
23:48as principals in the declaration that can aid us
23:50charting our course appropriately to not fall prey
23:53to what is befall in almost every other nation
23:55that comes into you?
23:56That's a great way to do it too,
23:57is like the declaration we can say, okay,
24:00we owe these truths, well, we know in Second Thessalonians
24:03that if you aren't a lover of truth, if you hate truth,
24:06then God sends the delusion,
24:08and then you end up making a lot of really stupid decisions.
24:11Seems like America's made a lot of stupid decisions lately,
24:13right?
24:14And we definitely see a lot of delusion in the country, right?
24:17So just that part of the deck arts,
24:19just coming back to say, we love, we want truth.
24:22We're gonna have civil discourse to find that truth,
24:24and then we're gonna hold on to it,
24:25we're gonna stand for it, we're gonna fight for it,
24:26that alone is a great sign of revival.
24:30And I think there is a big chunk of that happening
24:32in the country right now.
24:32I think there's a lot of people that have become,
24:35and even this new generation,
24:37they're kind of sensitive to being gas-lighted.
24:40They're sensitive to deception.
24:43They want you to be blunt with them
24:44and be honest with them.
24:46And so that to me is a sign of revival.
24:48I think loving liberty and being willing to work hard for it.
24:52Like we were joking about this morning,
24:54it's not a redistribution or a guarantee of happiness
24:56It's a pursuit of happiness.
24:58I think those are signs that we wanna be the two servants
25:01that really worked hard.
25:02They weren't the wicked and slothful servant
25:04that just took it for granted or was lazy,
25:06but they were willing to go out there and risk.
25:08And so all of those things are good signs.
25:10But I think I will say there's a danger here
25:12in that we do another Jesus revolution kind of revival
25:15where we don't do discipleship.
25:17You know, get a lot of people walking the aisle,
25:19walking the beach and making the decision,
25:22but then we don't disciple all nations
25:25and teach them to obey everything that he commanded.
25:27So I'm hearing a lot of people with the same warning right now,
25:30which tells me that's a good healthy sign
25:33that we're going into this with eyes wide open
25:34and saying, you know, there's a lot of hard work
25:36that's required in a revival if you want it
25:38to be a reformation and see our true great awakening
25:41where at the end of the day people act different
25:43and you see a difference in the culture.
25:45Yeah, one time I did a program on one of the concerns
25:50when you have zealous evangelism without disciple making
25:55because following the second grade awakening,
25:58it was the actual genesis of many of the, frankly, cults
26:01that we have now, it followed the second grade awakening.
26:04We had fervent zealous evangelism,
26:06but it was not accompanied by discipleship.
26:09And you saw all kinds of things
26:11starting to follow from that.
26:12And the simple reality is,
26:15the whole adage would have you wrought old Benjamin
26:17from one of your favorite rooms,
26:18your favorite room in all of history,
26:20a republic if you can keep it,
26:22The founders understood that the structure was put in place,
26:26put in place, but there had to be another vehicle
26:29to cultivate the type of populace to sustain that.
26:32And that mechanism, frankly, is disciple making.
26:35As John Adams put it, our governmental structure
26:38is only adequate for one kind of people.
26:40But the kind of people that are needed for our government
26:42structure can't be produced by our government.
26:44That's right.
26:44Ooh, that's good, man. Yes.
26:46So you don't get moral and religious people
26:48from government schools that are void of morals
26:50and religion.
26:52you do not, and in fact, to the delusion you refer to,
26:55we have now a juriscedent now on the highest court
26:59in our land who publicly stated she was conveniently ignorant
27:03of what a woman was.
27:04How do you have that and have something that you sustained
27:07that is based and that's enduring upon truth?
27:10So I was stirred by what you shared this morning.
27:14And again, you hit a string on my heart
27:17when you talked about the decorations relationship
27:20to the Constitution, approaching the 250th anniversary
27:23of that hallowed document.
27:26How do you think our nation should approach that?
27:29Man, more than just celebrations,
27:31but we wanna have a lot of celebrations.
27:33Our goal is 5,000 celebrations on July 4th next year.
27:35That's one fourth of the communities in America
27:38that are 500 or more people.
27:40But doing that celebration with an understanding
27:42of what we're celebrating.
27:43Even on that day, which I'm hoping we do a lot more work
27:46between now and then, but even on that day,
27:48reading through the declaration.
27:50actually having a blown up copy of the decoration and having everybody come up and sign and pledge
27:54their lives fortunes in a sacred honor so that they spend the whole year of the 250th between the
27:58you know july 4th 2026 and july 4th 2027 actually live in this thing out and studying these things
28:04so i think the key is is is civic literacy you know most all of our problems are biblical and civic
28:09ignorance and they can be solved with biblical or civic literacy but we have to we have to teach
28:14these things and i think we have a real good a very good chance at that because so many people
28:18talking about it, we just have to keep hammering at it and give people easy tools to dive in.
28:23The technology is going to help with that. The White House is even helping with a lot of this,
28:27pushing out a lot of these education programs with PragerU and with Wall Builders and all these
28:33different organizations. So the opportunities there, I think the right energy is there to do it.
28:38I guess you could say it this way, the bricks are there for us to rebuild Liberty with and the mortar
28:42and the right mindset is there as well. We just got to see if enough people are going to be willing
28:46to do the hard work because freedom's not easy. It takes hard work. And I said we can if we will.
28:52The will part has been much of the question and you mentioned biblical and civic ignorance
28:58being increasingly problematic. One of the unfortunate realities that biblical and civic
29:03ignorance tends to move faster than biblical and civic literacy. Yeah, it's harder to. And frankly,
29:09it is harder. But I was talking earlier from Matthew 16, the authority and the potency
29:17of the move of God's people, which Jesus said,
29:20the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it,
29:23is that we're not operating merely in humanistic,
29:27in humanistic potency.
29:29That's right.
29:30But that we have access to something even divine,
29:31and you asked the question this morning
29:33about evidence of America's founders being Christian
29:37and you shared from memory, much of Benjamin Franklin's speech
29:43that day, and the context of it is so profound
29:46that I'd love you to share.
29:47We have a couple minutes where we had to break that he as the elder,
29:5281 year old Ben Franklin,
29:54who had already been through Independence Hall during the Revolutionary
29:57Area and the Revolutionary War.
29:58But now as the Constitution of being drafted,
30:00he drew a line of comparison that highlighted a bit of negligence that
30:05had transpired just in that short time between 1776 and 1787.
30:08Would you share a little bit about that?
30:09Yeah. And I would say everybody out there listening, if you're over 60,
30:13you need to be a Ben Franklin to some young patriots in your life.
30:16You need to be willing to remind them of what God has done.
30:18Almost a Psalm 78 thing where we're saying,
30:21hey everybody, we need to be reminding the kids
30:23and teaching kids what God did in our nation.
30:25Even for generations yet to be born.
30:27Yes.
30:28That's a Psalm 78 talks about it.
30:29Yes, exactly.
30:30And for Franklin, it was like you said,
30:31it's only 11 years.
30:32I mean, we're talking a decade here.
30:33And they had already forgotten what God had done for them.
30:36And so he gives us great, elegant speech, quotes 11,
30:38Bible verses and wakes everybody up,
30:40basically shakes them out of their slumburns,
30:42says we can't do this without God.
30:43And Washington said what was amazing about that moment
30:45was they broke, they went to church, they prayed together,
30:48and it broke the conflict that was keeping them
30:51from being able to reach an agreement
30:53and actually come to terms.
30:54So even to your point about the supernatural side of this
30:57and God intervening in this, I believe he will do that.
30:59If we'll take these steps, he'll do that.
31:01But we've got to be willing to step out right now.
31:04We've got to be willing to fill this vacuum.
31:06Where so many people in the church receded from the arena.
31:10And if we do that, I think we can be the Franklin's,
31:12you know, be willing to say,
31:14Hey, don't forget what God did in our nation.
31:16We cannot do that.
31:16In fact, one of his lines was,
31:18have we now forgotten this powerful friend?
31:20Do we imagine we can succeed without his assistance?
31:24I know we can't succeed without his assistance at all.
31:27And I believe he's willing,
31:29his laws of nature and nature is God's say,
31:31if we call on him, if we follow his laws,
31:33the blessings will be on the other side of that.
31:34So that's our opportunity here at the 250th.
31:37Yeah, and you pointed out that how Ben Franklin said
31:39in that speech, every day in this room,
31:42while the bullets are flying.
31:43Yeah.
31:44in this room, we cried out to the Lord and bring it all those proclamations they did in those
31:49early Continental Congresses, the governors, even the presidents in the first 50 years of
31:55our country, I mean they were constantly saying get on your face man, prayer, fasting humiliation
32:00is what they call the nation too. These were public acts. These were from official government
32:06positions saying to the people we need to be that moral and religious people. Yeah.
32:10And then during the constitutional convention at the early parts of it. He said we have not even once
32:16Sawed out this divine friend that helped us previously with all of the acts of providence the the smog on one day
32:22The ice melting on another day the lack of vision for the for the red coat another another day
32:26That evidence is of divine providence enabling the the revolutionary founders to be victorious then how then?
32:34Can it if a sparrow can't fall to ground without his awareness? How can an empire arise?
32:38and it led to a prayer meeting right there in the end of it's hall that changed the course
32:43of our nation's destiny and from that came our Constitution.
32:46You'll listen to the Hamlet's in the corner.
32:48My guest is Rick Green, more from Constitution City, Texas on the other side of this break.
33:01Coming up this weekend on the stand radio, Alex McFarland and Bert Harper join us to talk
33:05about Bible prophecy and the return of Christ.
33:08It's hard for me to believe anybody with look at scripture, it's like God's through with
33:13a nation of Israel.
33:14It seems to be we're reaching that point in history as the Bible says that the times of
33:19the Gentiles have been fulfilled.
33:22Not completely, but we're getting there.
33:24The Stand Radio, Saturday's at 4 in Sundays at 8 PM Central on AFR.
33:30Jerusalem, O Jerusalem, how many times I would have taken you under my wings.
33:35They had everything that was necessary for them to know Jesus and follow Him and they
33:42went their way.
33:43I think for nations, for individuals, there is a day that you have to make the decision
33:49to respond to the Lord, and it might be that the door of opportunity after that shines.
33:55Exploring the word weekdays 3PM Central on AFR.
34:00What if health care could be more than bills and bureaucracy?

35:05Hamilton Quarter Podcast and One-Minute Comment Terrets are available at AFR.net.
35:10to the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
35:15Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton the third here
35:18with the founder, president, visionary for Patriot Academy, none other than Rick Green
35:23also. One half of the dynamic duo that hosts at the core on American Family Radio.
35:28One of the things that you offer through the Patriot Academy is a constitutional
35:32defense training course.
35:35Would you just speak to that a little bit to let people know what's available here and
35:38then why do you find that to be something that's intrinsic to what you offer through
35:42Patriot Academy?
35:43Yeah, you know, I became really passionate about this when I got a whole
35:46Proverbs 27-12, a wise person for seized danger and takes precaution of simpleton or a fool,
35:51walks blindly on and suffers the consequences and then put that in the context of our culture
35:55today where, you know, there's six million violent crimes a year in America and it's getting
35:59worse in a lot of our blue cities and if you're not prepared to defend yourself, then your family
36:03will be a victim and I just, I didn't want my family to be a victim and, and if I was the
36:07I was a guy in the legislature when I was in Texas legislature.
36:09I mean, people would joke about that and I passed all the gun legislation, I passed all the
36:13god legislature.
36:14That was just my stick.
36:16But I didn't carry my weapon because I wasn't trained.
36:18And so even the guy saying I'm pro second amendment, I have my bumper stickers and everything,
36:22I wouldn't have been ready.
36:23And my son, Trey was only 16 and when he turned 16, somebody invited us to this training.
36:29And I was like, well, I grew up on the ranch.
36:30I don't need any of that.
36:32But I'll go for him.
36:33Bro, three hours into that thing.
36:35eyes were wide open and I realized I didn't know what I didn't know and after four days
36:39of training I felt more competent and confident than ever in my life. It really changed the
36:44way I look, walked, sat and all of it and I just became passionate. So now we've trained
36:5110,000 people through that course, our version of that course. And it's really cool because
36:57we combine the Constitution with the physical training. So we want them to understand what
37:00the Second Amendment is really all about, why this is what the Founders called the first
37:04law of nature that God designed us to defend and that you could sign away your right to
37:09defend but in the moment when your kids being threatened you're going to step up and defend
37:13your kid.
37:14And so we combine that and so you get the physical training but then you also learn the history
37:19of the Second Amendment why this is important.
37:21And also being intellectually ready, thinking through the moral and ethical questions before
37:28you're in the moment because if you're struggling with that in the moment, let's say you got
37:31trained with a weapon or somebody just goes out and buys a weapon and somebody breaks
37:35in their home and then all of a sudden they never really thought about it. Am I willing
37:38to press the trigger and end a life in order to protect the lives that God's put in my responsibility?
37:43If you're struggling with that question in the moment, you're going to end up having that
37:46weapon taken away from you and used on you. It's not the time to be thinking about it. So we spend
37:49a lot of time going through those mental, you know, the moral and ethical questions, the mental
37:55struggle that a lot of people have in that. And then even talking about the criminal and
37:58on civil liability. If you press the trigger, you could very likely be sued by the family
38:02of that person. You could very likely have criminal charges against you. If it depend on
38:06the jurisdiction that you're in and what might happen there. So it's a thorough training so
38:11that by the time you come out of those four days, you're no longer questioning those things
38:15and you're very well trained. You're better trained than most law enforcement actually
38:19by the time you finish our four day course. I've had SWAT officers actually tell me it's
38:23the best training they ever had. And so we've honestly taken a lot of flack over it.
38:27You know, I've lost supporters and donors and people saying, man, we just don't like
38:31the gun stuff or we don't think Christians should do that sort of thing.
38:34So we're actually coming out with a book called the Biblical Right of Arm Self Defense and really
38:37lay in the foundation for that.
38:40But I just haven't been willing to give it up because I've watched these mass murder events
38:43and, you know, people walk around, they're able to walk crazy, people are able to walk
38:47around killing people for five, six, ten minutes before the police are able to get there because
38:51you can't have police everywhere.
38:52It's not their fault.
38:53It's just the nature of this thing.
38:56You need sheepdogs, you need trained good people.
38:59It's not enough to have a good guy with a gun, you gotta have a trained good guy with a gun.
39:02Or as I like to say, sheepdogs with ponytails, I trained good gal with a gun.
39:08And we've seen that, you know, even when you've already happened here in Texas, that awful
39:13event where the guy, you know, killed a lot of kids because the officers waited 77 minutes
39:19to go in, horrible situation.
39:21The next day in West Virginia, guy goes into a party, he's going to shoot up a bunch of,
39:25kill a bunch of people, sheepdog with a ponytail takes her weapon out of her
39:28purse and she puts down the threat before he's able to kill any innocent people.
39:33I would much rather have that scenario than a scenario where a guy walks around
39:37Walmart killing people for 10 minutes before the police can get in there.
39:40So I don't mean to be more bitter or anything like that but it's true in our
39:43churches too, you know we've seen these horrible examples. Yeah and and that one
39:47here in Texas, white settlement, a perfect example if you watch that video,
39:50there's a good guy without a gun. Guy's literally serving communion. Yeah, he's
39:54killed good guy with a gun but not trained. He's trying to get his gun out fumbling around.
39:58He's killed, trained good guy with a gun from across the room, a guy named Jack Wilson, 72
40:03years old, presents his weapon and stops the threat in about 1.8 seconds. It was exactly
40:10what we trained people to do. It's amazing. And I was going to mention that we're now firmly
40:15fixed in the era where the same murderous threats
40:21are finding churches.
40:22Oh yeah.
40:23And people are being made victims
40:27in the place that should be the House of Prayer.
40:29Amen.
40:30It's really jolting to consider that.
40:34How can people find Patriot Academy?
40:35How can people support the work that you're doing here?
40:38You have all kinds of plans and things you're already doing,
40:40the things you want to do to expand.
40:41How can people support that?
40:42Yeah, we're teaching young people,
40:44That's our flagship. That's really what we started 25 years ago was teaching young people,
40:48training them to be good citizens. But now we're teaching people of all ages. We got 30,000
40:51constitution coaches across the country using our constitution classes to do that locally.
40:56We're doing a course on campus, the full one year institute and then one week programs that
41:00people want to just come for a week and get trained. So there's lots and lots of ways for
41:03people to train. If you want to donate to the cause, sponsor a student maybe, whatever you
41:07want to do, patreonacademy.com. If you want to take one of our classes, we give our constitution
41:10Class is way for free.
41:12Even our hang on defense training and that sort of thing
41:14is super cheap compared to what it would cost anywhere else.
41:18We do that because it gets subsidized by donors
41:20because we just want to train as many people
41:21as we possibly can.
41:22But all of it, patreon.com.
41:25Guys, I can't emphasize that enough
41:27for you guys to support this work.
41:31It's one thing to hear about and talk about it.
41:32This is my first time here.
41:34It's another thing to put my feet on the ground here
41:37and walk around and drive around
41:38and to see everything that's happening.
41:40the cottages that are available for people
41:42for the one year program.
41:44Guys, this is good soil.
41:45This is good ground.
41:46And I encourage you to do what you can to support this work.
41:51This is one, I said this in first segment,
41:52you wanna hear it in here then.
41:53This is one of the places that will be a beach head
41:55against the darkness that is mounting in our country.
41:58And I've been talking quite a bit on my show lately
42:00that we have the Marxist Islamianist elected in New York City.
42:04We have, I think the record is 42 Muslim elected officials
42:09It was just last election cycle
42:11we're elected across the country.
42:12We have Dearborn Michigan, Hamtramic Michigan,
42:16the Twin Cities area combined with additional domestic threats
42:21like treating truth as if it's irrelevant.
42:25We have all of these things mounting.
42:28Many in view of all of that would say,
42:33is it too late?
42:35We haven't hit 250 yet, it's 249,
42:37but the barbarian to at the gate, is it too late?
42:42The wolf is at the door and in some places actually in.
42:44The house.
42:45And I for one am never gonna be one to lay down
42:49and give up no matter what the odds are.
42:50I think we do our duty no matter what
42:52and leave the results to God.
42:53Let's pause on that for a second.
42:55Yeah, sure.
42:56Because you're speaking my language.
42:57You know, it is, you know, I remember the old Booby program
43:01kill them all at the paramedics sort them out kind of thing.
43:03But really, I mean, I'm looking at my wife over here,
43:06I've got six children, my youngest is three-oh before this year.
43:08I'm unwilling to voluntarily seed what God is entrusted to our kid.
43:13I think we have to be like Churchill, man.
43:15We're going to fight him on the streets.
43:16We're going to fight him on the beaches, fight him in the air.
43:19And frankly, I think in some areas we're winning.
43:23Last year, if we'd had this conversation, I'd have said, hey,
43:25they own every major institution in America.
43:28We have to start thinking of ourselves as the insurgency at this point.
43:31we're gonna have to be willing to lose a lot of battles
43:36and just stay in the fight and Lord willing, it will turn.
43:39But at this moment, a year later, I'm going,
43:42man, we got a lot of victories happening right now.
43:44Trump's giving us a lot of air cover
43:46and getting the Buddha government off our neck in many ways.
43:48It's all temporary, which is why you gotta have long term
43:50change, not just temporary change,
43:52but I'm seeing some really good things.
43:53And I would say this way, elections are report cards
43:58on how well the church is discipling.
44:01And if we're discipling well, the report card comes out better at the election and then
44:05you get policies that reflect the discipleship of the community.
44:10Salt and lights actually happening.
44:11The chemical reaction of the salt and the meat is actually preserving the meat and then
44:17bringing out the best flavor of the meat.
44:18So if we'll do the things we were talking about earlier, then I do believe we can still win.
44:23I'm an optimistic guy, but I think the data is there.
44:26Now the data is discouraging if you just look at a moment in time and say, like I was talking
44:30to Barna earlier today, George Barnan.
44:32And you talking to Barnan, you go, man, that dad is bad.
44:3511% have a worldview.
44:37I mean, that's really bad, right?
44:38Well, he's down quite a few people in the corner
44:41over the years as well.
44:42He's a friend and he'll have his guitars in the back.
44:45Yes, I was just looking at that.
44:46Why he's dropping a bass line that's not coming
44:48from Motown, if you get what I'm saying.
44:50Oh, that's good.
44:51Oh, man, it's so true.
44:53It's so true.
44:54But I told George today, I was like, okay,
44:56you give me my reality check.
44:57And now I know how hard I need to go work.
44:59but I think just like the founders,
45:01because you were saying it earlier,
45:02all those times where God intervened.
45:05And imagine being Washington
45:07and you're crossing the Delaware
45:10to go take on the people that just kicked your tail
45:12two months ago.
45:13They just mopped the floor with you.
45:15And you're gonna do this in a snowstorm,
45:18you're gonna take on a better force.
45:20It'd be like you and me going and trying to take
45:21on the Navy SEALs.
45:22I mean, these were the Hessian soldiers that were pros, man.
45:25They were the best of the best.
45:27And yet he had been on his knees enough to know,
45:30I can do this if God blesses it, then we're gonna win.
45:33And it turned the whole thing around.
45:35And you get to a point where no nation was willing to help,
45:38his troops had dropped from 25,000 out of 2,500.
45:41I mean, it was bleak.
45:43I don't think we're that bleak right now.
45:45I think we're in a much better position
45:46than Washington was when he did that.
45:48So why not do some moves like Washington?
45:50And take what is, I think, fertile soil out there
45:54where people are hungry and willing to listen.
45:56and let's give this thing our best shot.
45:58And then it's up to God.
45:59You know, I do think God's not done with America.
46:03If I'm wrong, then we do the best we can
46:05with what we got, where we are,
46:06and we're good stewards of what we had.
46:08But if I'm right, then we have a chance
46:10to turn this thing around and not just play defense
46:13and stop the slouch towards comorps.
46:15We have a chance to take ground back.
46:17We have the chance to win communities back.
46:19We have the chance to restore private property rights,
46:22restore the proper role of government,
46:24restore religious liberty in this country
46:26the way the founders, as you and I were talking this morning offline, the way the founders
46:30envisioned it to be.
46:31Man, I think we could have some big victories in the next few years.
46:34We can if we will.
46:35We can if we will.
46:36I love that.
46:37And with all of that, I don't think the scripture gives us the wherewithal to employ a humanistic
46:45calculus concerning how we think it will end to answer the question whether or not we will
46:49obey.
46:50Where obedience is the key.
46:51That's it.
46:52It's the thing about the servants coming in and, you know, does the master just say,
46:56Hey, go ahead and enjoy yourself.
46:58You worked hard today or is it your work's not done yet?
47:00Make dinner, do your thing.
47:01You know, I mean, that's what we mean to be.
47:04We need to be joyful in this fight.
47:05No matter how many hours a day we got to put into it and we got to be more willing to put
47:09more time into it.
47:10I think that's part of the deal.
47:11We've had it so easy for so long, you know, this 40 hour a week American idea of a dream.
47:17No, six days shout out labor.
47:19supposed to be in the fight providing for our families,
47:22defending our families, defending our country,
47:24defending our faith, six days a week out there working hard,
47:27and then on that seventh day, working hard,
47:29worshiping the Lord.
47:30Yeah, and rest is only needed for people who are working.
47:33Yeah.
47:34You don't need rest if you live at rest.
47:36And I think what you describing the human nature cycle
47:40with strong men, weak men, and all of that,
47:42one of the unspoken, I guess you would say,
47:45mortars in that brick, if you will, is when we've been weak
47:49protractively, we lose muscle memory. Yeah. Yeah. We forget
47:55what vigor rigor, an internal capacity to say, you know what,
48:00I'm uncomfortable being lazy. Yeah. I'm uncomfortable being
48:04negligent. I'm uncomfortable being lethargic. We lose some of
48:07that. And unfortunately, the only remedy for that, I had a high
48:10school basketball coach who said this, this profound proverb,
48:15pain stimulates the brain.
48:16That's good.
48:17Yes.
48:18And I think we're experiencing a bit of that until your point that God has blessed us in
48:22our nation with the reprieve.
48:24I mean with this recent, you know, turn of events, President Trump, 45 and 47 and all
48:30that kind of stuff.
48:31And I've been saying it's been beating this drum on my show that guys, that's a reprieve.
48:34We can't misconstrue what a reprieve is a reprieve is not the promised land.
48:38A reprieve is an opportunity to inhale and exhale so you can put your nose to the grindstone
48:42in full view of what has transpired.
48:44I've been reading my own devotional time in the book of Ezekiel when the Lord rebukes the older sister and the younger sister
48:51Ahola and a holaba, you know Judah and Israel and the Lord was even more stringent in rebuking Judah
48:57Because that you watch what happened with Israel
48:59Yeah, and then you go and repeat the same thing. Yeah, like you are exponentially even more wicked for that phenomenon. So
49:06So, let me tell this story quick.
49:10Go, please.
49:11We are at that same point where the reprieve is God's gotten us out of Egypt and he's already
49:17performed a miracle for us.
49:20And now we're standing on the other side and the Egyptians have been drowned and we have
49:23a choice.
49:24Are we now going to go do the hard work of scratching and clawing for every inch of the
49:28promise land?
49:29Are we going to say, oh, it's too hard, the giants are too big, the fortified cities,
49:33and then we get depressed and we all got to die in the wilderness and wait for a
49:36new generation to come along good. That's the choice we're faced with right now.
49:39Rick, that's it man. That's it guys. That is the choice we're faced with. We can if we
49:46will. We need people who are sober minded. You refer to the sons of Isecar before
49:51who understood the times. That was a time of great tension in Israel. Yeah. Saul's
49:56house. House of David. What are we gonna do? But they understood what what needed
49:59to be done and the scripture goes on to explain that a particular amount of
50:03soldiers that were dedicated to fight yes the isacarian answer was armament
50:08preparation to fight your description from the Red Sea being parted to being
50:15faced with the promised land in front of God's people is a great description as
50:20to where we are I pray that the listeners and viewers can hear what God has
50:25saying to them beyond our words and please support the work
50:29PatreonAcademy.com. This is one of the beachheads that I believe God has established for this very moment.
