In the approach to the 250th anniversary of our Declaration of Independence, it's encouraging to see our nation give attention to reading through the Bible.

1. 0:00Darkness is not an affirmative force.
2. 0:03It simply reoccupies the space vacated by the light.
3. 0:07This is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
4. 0:11It should be uncomfortable for a believer to live as a hypocrite.
5. 0:15Delivery people out of the bondage of mainstream media.
6. 0:18And the philosophies of this world.
7. 0:20God has called you and me to be his ambassador.
8. 0:24Even in this dark moment.
9. 0:26Let's not miss our moment.
10. 0:29And now, the Hamilton Corner.
11. 0:31Good evening, everyone.
12. 0:34Welcome to the Hamilton Corner.
13. 0:37My name is Abraham Hamilton III.
14. 0:39I'm the host of this program joined by the Corner contingent
15. 0:43right across from me, my man 100 grand Mr. Bobby,
16. 0:46Rosa, and in the screening room, produce extraordinaire,
17. 0:51often imitated, never duplicated, not successfully.
18. 0:55That is, anyway.
19. 0:57The Rio J. Mac, ladies and gentlemen,
20. 0:58and we are ready to rock and roll with today's edition of the program at this very moment.
21. 1:04Many of you, if not most of you are making your transition from your part time jobs where
22. 1:08you generate an income to your full time jobs where you cultivate an outcome.
23. 1:12And as you do so, I want to remind you to do so with intentionality, understanding the
24. 1:17primacy that God places on family and welcoming that primacy to, welcoming that primacy to govern,
25. 1:24guide and guard your engagement.
26. 1:27And I mean that with every ounce of sincerity, I can convey to you that we will never out
27. 1:37politic, out vote, out Supreme Court precedent, out social media, out you name it.
28. 1:43We will never out any of that stuff, the deficiencies that abound in the home that persist
29. 1:47through the family.
30. 1:49The family is God's first institution for a reason, for a reason.
31. 1:54of what has transpired in our society is the byproduct of the assault that the family has
32. 2:04suffered.
33. 2:05And that's just the reality.
34. 2:08That is the case.
35. 2:10And if we would welcome the Lord to grasp us, to grasp ahold of us in particular in our families,
36. 2:15in our homes, there's no question as to what could happen in society.
37. 2:21Because before there was ever a modern iteration of civil government, before there was a new
38. 2:25New Testament church, the first institution that got established was the family with marriage
39. 2:34at the center.
40. 2:36And there are lots of things that are happening.
41. 2:38I am, somebody thinks happened in the country.
42. 2:42I'm encouraged by the America 250 Bible reading investment.
43. 2:49America reads the Bible.
44. 2:53encouraged by that. But I pray that that is accompanied by a sincere grasping of what is in the scripture.
45. 3:07Because I'm gravely concerned that the witness of authentic Christ following has been so
46. 3:15diluted, so submerged. I was talking to a friend of mine today, you know, and as I'm reading the
47. 3:23in the scripture and my personal devotions,
48. 3:24I'm studying the book of Judges.
49. 3:26And right at the very beginning of the book,
50. 3:28you have Caleb's nephew, Othniel, who serves as a judge.
51. 3:33He is faithful and serving Yahweh.
52. 3:37And then the scripture says that there was 40 years
53. 3:40of peace following Othniel service.
54. 3:44Then you have Eud, a next judge who serves the Lord
55. 3:49because the Israelites had to succumb
56. 3:51to a more bite oppression because they turned away
57. 3:54from following Yahweh.
58. 3:55Then following Ehood, there was 80.
59. 3:59There were 80 years of peace, 80 years.
60. 4:03And so I'm looking at that, I'm saying,
61. 4:05Lord, that's 120 years.
62. 4:08Two judges.
63. 4:10I'm looking at our nation's history.
64. 4:13We're celebrating the 250th anniversary
65. 4:15of our Declaration of Independence.
66. 4:18The point I'm getting to is it ain't been that long.
67. 4:22It hasn't been that long.
68. 4:24If you plot our nation on a map,
69. 4:27you know, kind of like old school transparency,
70. 4:30you remember that in school?
71. 4:31Yeah, the transparency's had a little light on,
72. 4:32you had to put the transparency on the thing,
73. 4:34y'all know what I'm talking about?
74. 4:35If you overlay the transparency's,
75. 4:38with our nation atop the Book of Judges, man,
76. 4:40we're only about, we're good four judges in tops.
77. 4:46It hasn't been that long,
78. 4:48but look at what's happened in such a short amount of time.
79. 4:54We've gone from, as I've been talking about lately,
80. 4:57You know, the recognition of nature and nature's God and our declaration and these truths that
81. 5:02we hold as being self-evident, that all men are created equal, being endowed by our Creator
82. 5:09within the alienable rights.
83. 5:11We've gone from, you know, our Constitution of Convention when Benjamin Franklin interrupts
84. 5:16it to make a motion for prayer and warns that, man, when we were afraid while we were fighting
85. 5:21Great Britain, we prayed every day in this house.
86. 5:24Now that we've been able to deliberate as to what we're going to be in peace,
87. 5:28how we've forgotten our divine friend and we've gone from that in 1787.
88. 5:34And now we're talking about transgender bathrooms, you know,
89. 5:39genital mutilation for children.
90. 5:42A state says we're going to protect our children from this craziness.
91. 5:45You have people saying, no, you can't protect minors from these mutilation
92. 5:48surgeries and we can't resolve the matter.
93. 5:52So we have to take it all the way to the Supreme Court.
94. 5:53I'm saying, man, the whole head is sick.
95. 5:56That's what I'm saying.
96. 5:56And I love my nation.
97. 6:01This is the greatest nation in the history of mankind.
98. 6:04I say that completely without any hesitation whatsoever.
99. 6:09And while at the exact same time, I will say that our nation has lost our way.
100. 6:16And my concern is that there are lots of people who recognize certain aspects of that.
101. 6:21I think the 2024 election cycle is an indication of that.
102. 6:25We were saying, what?
103. 6:26We got a woman talking about using tax payer dollars to do transgender surgeries on prisoners.
104. 6:32What?
105. 6:34I think people recognize that the rest of this is often off in the recipe, but I don't think
106. 6:39we're ready to acknowledge what exactly is off in the recipe.
107. 6:46We cannot enjoy the blessings of God and sidestep God's way.
108. 6:50And I think the elephant in the room, so to speak, is that I feel like we want a sidestep
109. 6:59the necessary ingredients of confession and repentance.
110. 7:03With that to the word of God we go.
111. 7:05Ezra chapter nine is where I wanna go this evening.
112. 7:07Ezra chapter nine.
113. 7:09And by way of reminder,
114. 7:11certainly the books of Ezra and the Amaya
115. 7:14should be read together.
116. 7:16This is a post-exilic book meaning that it's a writing
117. 7:20for the Jewish people following their return to Israel
118. 7:26after the Babylonian conquest and exile,
119. 7:29which became the Medo-Persian subjugation,
120. 7:33it became the Persians,
121. 7:35and the book of Ezra begins with a recognition
122. 7:38and Ezra's writing and chronicling events
123. 7:42that occurred in the first year of the reign of Cyrus
124. 7:44as the king of Persia.
125. 7:47The book is dated at about 458 BC,
126. 7:51and Ezra was a priest who had to re-instruct
127. 7:56lots of God's Word to His people.
128. 8:02And you come to the near the very end of the book
129. 8:06and Ezra finds that even though these are people returning
130. 8:10to Jerusalem, I'm returning to Judah, following exile,
131. 8:14knowing full well why they were exiled,
132. 8:18he nevertheless found the post-exilic Jewish people
133. 8:22returning to their abominations, returning to compromise.
134. 8:28and Ezra was grieved, overwhelmingly grieved.
135. 8:31With that, we turn to the ninth chapter of the book of Ezra.
136. 8:36The sixth verse is where I am going to start reading.
137. 8:41I'm sorry, the fourth verse.
138. 8:42I think I point the sixth verse, the fourth verse.
139. 8:46And I'm gonna read all the way through the sixth verse.
140. 8:51And this is what Ezra said.
141. 8:55And he's praying, actually.
142. 8:58Then all who trembled at the words of God,
143. 9:00words of the God of Israel,
144. 9:03because of the faithlessness of the returned exiles gathered around me,
145. 9:09this is Ezra talking, gathered around me while I sat appalled until the evening
146. 9:14sacrifice. And at the evening sacrifice, I rose from my fasting with my garment
147. 9:21and my cloak torn and fell upon my knees and spread out my hands to the Lord,
148. 9:27my God saying, Oh my God, I am ashamed and blushed to lift my
149. 9:35face to you, my God, for our iniquities have risen above our
150. 9:42heads and our guilt has mounted up to the heavens. Ezra goes on
151. 9:53in his book to detail with specificity. All of the areas of
152. 9:57sinfulness that he is grieved to concerning,
153. 10:03and lays it before the Lord in prayer.
154. 10:07And when you read this text,
155. 10:08as I'm reading it, it's almost like there's a tightening
156. 10:11in my chest because I'm gripped because I can sense Ezra's
157. 10:15grief as he's writing, because he's writing from a posture.
158. 10:19Like guys, don't y'all realize the stuff y'all are doing now
159. 10:22is a very reason why we were exiled from me
160. 10:24in the first place.
161. 10:29This is why I expressed the concern that I expressed.
162. 10:33And this was toward President Trump,
163. 10:35but this is not limited to him.
164. 10:37Because when you follow the horrendous display
165. 10:42during the Passion Week,
166. 10:46with what Paula White did,
167. 10:48and then you follow that with the picture
168. 10:49and all this other kind of stuff.
169. 10:50And I'm saying, man, this is presenting
170. 10:51a stark reality for me.
171. 10:56Bible Basics 101, God opposes the proud.
172. 11:04We can't afford to be an enemy of God.
173. 11:06And one of the things as I'm considering our own nation
174. 11:10and praying for our nation,
175. 11:11and I believe a lot of people recognize,
176. 11:13man, some stuff is just not right.
177. 11:15Things are off and people want to see some changes,
178. 11:19but I don't think we are quite at the point
179. 11:22where we're ready to face the necessary
180. 11:26confession and repentance.
181. 11:29Guys, our sin has risen above our heads.
182. 11:36We've gone from a society to where,
183. 11:44You know, in our society, chastity was an expectation.
184. 11:47Even you had people doing things that were wrong,
185. 11:49and they knew they were wrong,
186. 11:50they knew they were wrong,
187. 11:51and wanted to keep them secret at a minimum.
188. 11:53Now, we have young ladies talking about body counts.
189. 11:59Young ladies.
190. 12:01We have young men who've been feminized.
191. 12:08You know, there's a scourge.
192. 12:10I mean, it could be the internet,
193. 12:11maybe people didn't know about it,
194. 12:13but I know I'm reading story after story
195. 12:15of school teachers, females that are sleeping with their students.
196. 12:22And I'm saying, this is overwhelming.
197. 12:27Pornography is a booming business.
198. 12:29I've pointed out this dance before that more money is generated in the pornography in this
199. 12:32country than the top sports leagues in our country combined.
200. 12:40You see how Gripdarnation is with NFL football?
201. 12:43Well, you combine the revenue for NFL football and Major League Baseball and National Basketball
202. 12:49association and you just begin to reach what's happened to a pornography in our country.
203. 12:58I was listening to my friends the Asin's podcast and they had a clip of a pastor using
204. 13:03the thing and he slick using imagery from the Playboy bunny to advertise for a Resurrection
205. 13:07Sunday service.
206. 13:13Guys, we will not experience God's blessing by sidestepping the necessity of repentance.
207. 13:24So what I'm saying, I am encouraged by America, we used to Bible praise God for that God's
208. 13:31word is his holy word.
209. 13:37But I'm praying also that our citizen will be gripped by it.
210. 13:41I have a story in my stack and I've been talking about this before.
211. 13:43I just have some data to support it showing their polls that are affirming the trend that
212. 13:48many of us have seen.
213. 13:49Young men are turning to faith in higher numbers than anybody else in our society, reversing
214. 13:55long trend lines of declining, but our young men are diverging, diverging from our young
215. 14:05women.
216. 14:08How do you have a society when the young men have a value system that is far and uncontracted
217. 14:13to the value system of the young women?
218. 14:17The young men have a system that is contrasted from the young women.
219. 14:20How are you going to have a society built and established in that fashion?
220. 14:26Young men are clamoring for purpose, but as they are clamoring for purpose, are they being
221. 14:31met by a robust disciple-making church that can arm them with the truth of God's word and
222. 14:37direct them in the appropriate manner and appropriate fashion.
223. 14:42Guys we need to be like Ezra.
224. 14:46The people of God in our nation need to be like Ezra.
225. 14:50And I pray the Lord would aid us with establishing the appropriate amount of sobriety and gravity
226. 14:55that the moment calls for.
227. 15:00A discipleship minute with Joseph Parker.
228. 15:04A big part of the Christian life is listening to God.
229. 15:07We listen to God by reading and meditating on his word.
230. 15:10We listen by his spirit because yes, God speaks to all of his children every day.
231. 15:15Sometimes what you think is a passing thought to your mind.
232. 15:17Maybe the Holy Spirit speaking to you, giving you guidance, insider wisdom about a matter.
233. 15:22Now by no means am I saying that every passing thought in your mind is the Holy Spirit, not
234. 15:26at all, but often what you might think is a passing thought is the Holy Spirit speaking
235. 15:32to you.
236. 15:33Write down thoughts, ideas, or insights that just come to your mind that you think.
237. 15:38Maybe that's God speaking to you.
238. 15:40The more you're looking for God to speak to you, the more he will speak to you.
239. 15:45Being deliberate about listening for the voice of God is very important.
240. 15:48And remember, you can always hear the voice of God through his word.
241. 15:52Spend more time reading the word of God and the voice of the Holy Spirit in life will get
242. 15:56louder and louder and louder.
243. 16:05lighting to the darkness. This is the Hamilton Corner, an American family radio.
244. 16:10Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton, the third here. Man, so much is
245. 16:22happening. I'm sure many of you saw the horrendous story in Shreveport, Louisiana, where this guy
246. 16:32murdered his own children, his own children. And his wife was critically injured, is grieving
247. 16:54and gripping to hear that and learn something so tragic. And it underscores in my view the
248. 17:06reality of the desperation that we should have in terms of seeking to glorify our country.
249. 17:15Man, we need God in our country so desperately.
250. 17:19A reminder to Virginians that you are voting tomorrow.
251. 17:26Tomorrow on, you want to talk about a bait and switch?
252. 17:31Didn't those bambergers say, hey, I'm not thinking about withdrawing the electoral maps
253. 17:35in Virginia?
254. 17:36No, no, no, no, no way.
255. 17:37We're not doing that.
256. 17:38Oh, what do you know?
257. 17:41We have a new measure before this Virginians concerning, what is that?
258. 17:45Yeah, redrawn, stay long.
259. 17:47We're redrawn, a congressional map lines.
260. 17:49that something which is why I think this is important today.
261. 18:00Speaker of the House Mike Johnson who's actually from the streetport area where there's tragedy
262. 18:04took place kicked off the America Reads the Bible initiative that will be a week long effort
263. 18:18I believe will conclude it's 12 hours a day that is going to conclude Saturday beginning
264. 18:26I mean, it started yesterday and it will conclude Saturday.
265. 18:31Over 500 people coming together,
266. 18:33we have a delegation of folks from AFA participating.
267. 18:38I was invited to participate, unfortunately,
268. 18:40I had a prior commitment by the time I was notified
269. 18:45of the American Reason of Bible effort.
270. 18:47I'd already committed to another engagement,
271. 18:50but we will have others from American Family Radio
272. 18:53and American Family Association
273. 18:55will be participating in it.
274. 18:58And this is right.
275. 18:59This is appropriate.
276. 19:01This is appropriate.
277. 19:04And this is something that should be done.
278. 19:11And it's something that I don't believe has ever been done in our nation's history where
279. 19:15the entire Bible was read from Genesis to Revelation with the national focus and attention
280. 19:27that this has been afforded.
281. 19:30I'm grateful for it.
282. 19:31as we're approaching the 250th anniversary of our Declaration of Independence for this to happen.
283. 19:38But my prayer is that this would not merely be, and I know because I know so many of the people
284. 19:42that are participating in it, I know many of the people who are participating in it are doing so out
285. 19:47of 100% sincerity. I know that. But my prayer is that this won't merely be a moment that is
286. 19:54performative, but that there is a sobriety and a gravity that comes to rest in our nation
287. 20:03in light of this.
288. 20:04I pray that it will be something to Ken,
289. 20:06and you know, some might say,
290. 20:07oh, hey, that's, that's Pine and Scott type of thinking.
291. 20:10Well, so be it.
292. 20:12But I pray it will be a Ken to what Josiah experienced
293. 20:18when the book of the law was discovered.
294. 20:20Think about that in the temple.
295. 20:23Go figure, the book of the law was discovered in the temple.
296. 20:27And Jeremiah, I'm sorry, and Josiah was grieved
297. 20:33When he heard the words of God read aloud to him, the way he tore his clothes and said,
298. 20:44wait, this is what we're supposed to be about?
299. 20:47We have not been living this?
300. 20:53We will carry America, Reads the Bible coverage right here on American Family Radio.
301. 20:58Tune in for that, which will be simply the word of God being read.
302. 21:03I have a clip for you, speaker Mike Johnson kicking off, contributing to the kickoff of
303. 21:10America reads the Bible week. It's clip number five, clip five. Go.
304. 21:14Around the world, we're really grateful to be a part of this. We're here
305. 21:18in the Museum of the Bible, in the nation's capital, on this truly historic
306. 21:22occasion. You all know that this year we're celebrating the 250th anniversary of the
307. 21:26greatest nation in the history of the world. And what we all know and what we cherish
308. 21:30is that the founding of that nation was grounded in the Bible,
309. 21:34the Word of God. And so we're going to celebrate that here on this appropriate
310. 21:38to read through it all together from start to finish.
311. 21:41And it will be, I think the first time anything like this
312. 21:43has happened, at least in the modern era,
313. 21:46but it's certainly appropriate during this time.
314. 21:50Praise God for that, man.
315. 21:53I praise God for that.
316. 21:55Guys, this is what we need.
317. 21:57This is what we need.
318. 21:59I've been sharing on this show,
319. 22:01the scripture teaches us that a war horse
320. 22:03is a false hope for salvation.
321. 22:05You know, I've been sharing on this show
322. 22:08And Psalm 24 example, and David is writing, and after a battle with a contingent that boasted
323. 22:15of having the military inventions and innovations of chariots and boasted of the breath of their
324. 22:24horsemen, 40,000.
325. 22:29The Lord allowed victory to come to David and the nation of Israel.
326. 22:34And it led David to pin in the psalm some trusting chariots.
327. 22:41trust in horsemen, but we trust. Oh, man. And the name of our God. Guys, we cannot
328. 22:49sidestep repentance. I know I have friends, dear friends who I love dearly.
329. 22:55They have such a focus on our national economics, but I have to ask them,
330. 23:01where do you think the idea of private property came from? Where do you
331. 23:06think the admonition about refusing to move to ancient boundaries don't came
332. 23:10from.
333. 23:12George Washington told us in his farewell address, in vain what we indulge the supposition that
334. 23:17morality can be maintained without religion.
335. 23:21And you study George Washington's writings, it's clear he's talking about the Christian
336. 23:24religion, the Christian faith.
337. 23:30And we've become kind of tenderized, you know how you tenderize meat over time.
338. 23:35And I can't, it's like once you see it, you can't unsee it.
339. 23:37I'm looking at the book of Judges and I'm saying, man, there's two judges in.
340. 23:41And the Lord has recorded 120 years of Israel's history with two judges.
341. 23:44Guys, how long do you think we can continue with having in God, we trust our national motto
342. 23:59and practically we're trusting in everything but God.
343. 24:02Guys, the word of God is true.
344. 24:08And I know I may ultimately be alone man crying in the wilderness, John the Baptist style,
345. 24:13you know, but so be it.
346. 24:16So be it.
347. 24:20So be it.
348. 24:22Trump is going to be a participant in this America,
349. 24:24he's the Bible event.
350. 24:27He will be reading from Second Chronicles, the passage
351. 24:31that he is going to read is Second Chronicles chapter 11,
352. 24:34verse, sorry, Second Chronicles chapter 7, verses 11 through 22.
353. 24:40His message will be prerecorded.
354. 24:42His reading will be prerecorded,
355. 24:44but it will be delivered tomorrow evening at 6 p.m.,
356. 24:48Eastern, five central.
357. 24:49So as we begin this show tomorrow,
358. 24:51President Trump's reading will be aired.
359. 24:56And I have to tell you, man, I'm praying
360. 24:58that the Lord would grip him as he reads the scripture.
361. 25:02You know, I suspect that he will have read it before
362. 25:06he goes to the recording.
363. 25:13I pray that he's gripped by it.
364. 25:16The passage that he's going to read includes, you know,
365. 25:21God's if the people of God would confess and repent.
366. 25:29It's included right there in the text.
367. 25:32I mean, I can pull it up, but I pray that he's gripped by it.
368. 25:37And I pray that our nation is gripped by it.
369. 25:42And I know this is kind of a favorite amongst so many different people, you know,
370. 25:51but it was what the Lord presented in Solomon espoused as the temple was being dedicated.
371. 26:03And Solomon was seeking the Lord as to what should happen if the people of Israel fall off.
372. 26:09We have to remember that context.
373. 26:14The text says this, the Solomon finished the house of the Lord and the king's house.
374. 26:21All the Solomon had planned, this is where President Trump will be reading tomorrow.
375. 26:25All the Solomon had planned to do in the house of the Lord and in his own house he successfully
376. 26:29accomplished.
377. 26:31Then the Lord appeared to Solomon in the night and said to him, I have heard your prayer and
378. 26:36have chosen this place for myself as a house of sacrifice.
379. 26:40When, not if, notice that, when I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain or command
380. 26:46the locust to devour the land or send pestilence among my people.
381. 26:51If my people who are called by my name, humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn
382. 27:01from that wicked ways.
383. 27:02Guys, this is where President Trump will be reading.
384. 27:06You want to talk about a golden age for America?
385. 27:11You want to talk about how Mr. Ice Cream man always tried to destroy the country.
386. 27:15Turns out to close the border we didn't need.
387. 27:17The past we have a whole, all we needed was a new president.
388. 27:22You want to have a golden age for America.
389. 27:26Sound this about throughout our nation.
390. 27:29Guys if we want to see a golden age in America, God's people who are called by His name must
391. 27:36pray and seek His face and turn from their wicked ways.
392. 27:41Guys, that's the order of the day.
393. 27:50We can try to speed past confession and repentance in order to enjoy God's blessing.
394. 27:57But if you study the scripture, you know, that is not the way.
395. 28:01That is not the way.
396. 28:03So again, I'm encouraged.
397. 28:04I'm grateful for America, reached the Bible.
398. 28:09Thank you for the team that put it together and Bunny pounds working to put this into place.
399. 28:18But Lord, let it not be a performative phenomenon.
400. 28:28Let it not be a showpiece.
401. 28:29Which again, I'm not saying that it is and I don't think that it is.
402. 28:34I know too many other people that are participating and I know they're sincere.
403. 28:39I'm looking at the things.
404. 28:43Scores of children that are being born out of wedlock.
405. 28:45Did you guys see the video over the weekend and that?
406. 28:48I should have brought this clip out.
407. 28:49I didn't plan to talk about this, which is why I didn't.
408. 28:52But you have some dude, I think he's a songwriter,
409. 28:54a Nashville or whatever.
410. 28:55And he describes himself as a homosexual
411. 28:58and he's with another man.
412. 29:02And they've apparently paid some woman to rent their womb,
413. 29:08to rent her womb so that they could have a child.
414. 29:14And basically the homosexual dude is playing with just a little six month old baby saying,
415. 29:20what do you want?
416. 29:21And the little baby's going, mama, mama, the little baby's going, mama.
417. 29:26And these grown men are laughing at the child.
418. 29:29Then there was no mamas here.
419. 29:30It's like, yo, that's funny.
420. 29:36That's funny.
421. 29:37They don't, they don't, they don't, no, quote unquote mamas and living with them.
422. 29:40So where does this baby get this idea, this little child and forgive me if I have the
423. 29:45the age of the child wrong.
424. 29:48But this child, what did this child learn to cry for?
425. 29:50For mama.
426. 29:53You want to know where it came from?
427. 29:54God, hardwired it into that baby.
428. 29:58Yet these grown men will laugh.
429. 30:01Oh, no mama for you.
430. 30:05No mama for you.
431. 30:10How much talk, how much ink has been spilled,
432. 30:12how much air time has been given,
433. 30:14how, how, how,
434. 30:17don't even need to talk about a civil war that's been fought
435. 30:20to address the Transatlantic Landed Slave Trade,
436. 30:22And now we're gonna bring it back.
437. 30:24We gonna play a rental room for money.
438. 30:31Remember the case out of California
439. 30:34where another homosexual couple hired this woman
440. 30:37to be a surrogate and the woman,
441. 30:40I think drank alcohol or something,
442. 30:41they're like, now I want that baby no more.
443. 30:43You're fired, you gotta kill that baby.
444. 30:45Just like it ain't nothing, like it's like nothing.
445. 30:50And then do we need to talk about?
446. 30:53And then some people are talking about
447. 30:53all his bad strategies, man get out of here with all of that.
448. 30:57Roe versus Wade is overturned?
449. 31:00The abortion rates decrease?
450. 31:01No, no, no, no.
451. 31:02We're opt away from surgical murdering of the children
452. 31:05to murder the children with pills.
453. 31:10And talk about where we are,
454. 31:11a grape who pawned, pinky extended, civilized society.
455. 31:16How?
456. 31:21How was that anything but barbaric?
457. 31:23And then I mentioned earlier,
458. 31:24there's that vergence between America's young men
459. 31:26turning towards faith and America's young women.
460. 31:28They ain't turning towards faith.
461. 31:29You wanna know one of the major reasons why?
462. 31:31Because they know the scripture condemns baby murder.
463. 31:33but they've been, they've been inundated with this notion that women's empowerment
464. 31:38includes you being able to live the civious lives and you want to be just as, as, as committed
465. 31:43to fornication and able to eliminate the natural consequence of physical intimacy.
466. 31:52So because faith requires you to relinquish your idol, a baby murder for, for Chelsea Clinton
467. 31:59prescribed profit and financial remuneration.
468. 32:04And that'll keep you away from the Lord.
469. 32:14Guys, the sin has risen over our heads.
470. 32:17It's risen over our heads.
471. 32:20Remember the stories I've been sharing with you
472. 32:25that deviant people want the right to tell five year olds
473. 32:28about deviant lifestyles, murder.
474. 32:36We talk about crime rates, but we don't talk about
475. 32:38what causes crime.
476. 32:39It's the desperate, it's the disparate and devious
477. 32:42and wicked heart of man.
478. 32:50Repentance is what is necessary guys.
479. 32:52And I don't know if we recognize the urgency of the moment.
480. 33:00Learn university.
481. 33:02That one stereo right there fellas.
482. 33:03That's good.
483. 33:04We're struggling.
484. 33:05The Bumble Bee was called the Humble Bee.
485. 33:08Is that true?
486. 33:09Chicken legs are also called drums.
487. 33:11Yeah.
488. 33:11Yeah, that's not a good ice cream flavor.
489. 33:13They've got some little tiny saddles
490. 33:15that they put on those dragons.
491. 33:17Unfortunately, you know you're out of one
492. 33:19because then they turn around and take your leg off.
493. 33:21Hey Andrew you want to ask it?
494. 33:23I'm also starting by getting on and mist my exit.

503. 34:00Trump, a doctor?
504. 34:02This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian World View.
505. 34:05On his social media account last week,
506. 34:07President Trump posted an AI image of himself dressed
507. 34:11in a white robe and red sash with glowing hands touching
508. 34:15the forehead of a man in need of healing.
509. 34:18Public outrage was swift for the obvious representation
510. 34:21of Trump as Christ.
511. 34:23Trump deleted the post but said the image
512. 34:26simply portrayed him as a doctor healing the nation.
513. 34:29The president has implemented many policies
514. 34:31Christian support, but he and we all need truth tellers
515. 34:35around us reminding us to be vigilant against pride.
516. 34:39As the Bible says, pride goes before destruction
517. 34:42and a haughty spirit before stumbling.
518. 34:45Here are most recent program at thelchristianworldview.org
519. 34:48and then join us this weekend for another topic
520. 34:50that will sharpen your worldview.
521. 34:53Listen to the Christian worldview with David Wheaton,
522. 34:55Saturday mornings at 8 Central on American Family Radio.
523. 35:04The Hamilton Quarter podcast
524. 35:06and one-minute commentaries are available at AFR.net.
525. 35:10Back to the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
526. 35:15Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner,
527. 35:17Abraham Hamilton the third here.
528. 35:18I mean, here's an example of what I'm talking about.
529. 35:21So in Washington, D.C., I'll be there actually later this week.
530. 35:25week. Lieutenant Matthew Mull, it's a 23 year veteran of the Metropolitan Police Department
531. 35:34in DC. There was all kinds of fanfare and a plum to celebrate the first openly homosexual
532. 35:49head of the Metropolitan Police Union, Metropolitan Police Department Police Union, right? And
533. 35:57And now it's, and you know, you're hearing about this, you know, because what's generally
534. 36:03understood to be conservative outlets are covering it.
535. 36:06But the same people that, that, you know, blew the Trump and all that kind of stuff, you
536. 36:10can't hear an area of Pete from them.
537. 36:13And why is that?
538. 36:17Because mall was the product or not, I won't say the product, but he's been arrested.
539. 36:23He's been arrested for child pornography.
540. 36:29He was a product of an investigation and even the local PD didn't even know what's happening because the feds were leading it
541. 36:35There's a sting operation where he had been having extended
542. 36:40explicit conversations with a person he believed to be a
543. 36:4415 year old boy
544. 36:46Mm-hmm. You ever saw saw that show how to catch a predator
545. 36:50Basically they how to catch it how to catch a predator this dude. That's what happened and you know how they arrested him
546. 36:55He showed up at the spot where he was supposed to hook up with the 15 year old boy that he
547. 37:01knew was 15.
548. 37:04Here's a short clip on it.
549. 37:07Clip number four, clip four, go.
550. 37:09Lieutenant Matthew Mall has been on the DC Police Department for 23 years, most recently
551. 37:14assigned to the Special Operations Division.
552. 37:1710 years ago, Mall sat down with News 4 after being elected as the first openly gay chairman
553. 37:22of the DC Police Union.
554. 37:24On Tuesday, Mall was arrested in Harford County, Maryland, and charged with sexual solicitation
555. 37:30of a minor and solicitation of child pornography.
556. 37:34According to these, just-released charging documents, prosecutors alleged that Mall met
557. 37:39who he thought was a 15-year-old boy on Reddit and began a sexually explicit series of text
558. 37:44exchanges that lasted for several weeks.
559. 37:47During which time, prosecutors say Mall sent sexually explicit pictures of himself to the
560. 37:52The person he thought was a 15 year old boy, but in fact was a Hartford County Sheriff's
561. 37:57deputy.
562. 38:00Now, we can play stupid and win stupid prizes if we want.
563. 38:04And let's just be, let's just cut right through the fact and get right to it.
564. 38:08I know it's politically incorrect to point out what's true, but what is true?
565. 38:14That this whole phenomenon of adult males seeking out and abusing minors, I know the
566. 38:23The culture wants you to believe, oh, that's not a feature.
567. 38:26That's just a bug.
568. 38:27But can I tell you something?
569. 38:32That's been a part of homosexual culture.
570. 38:37How long?
571. 38:38People failed to recall how one of the primary participants
572. 38:44in early so-called gay pride celebrations
573. 38:48was the Nambla organization.
574. 38:50And they were allowed to march in the streets
575. 38:53where Harvey Milk was the mayor in San Francisco
576. 38:56because the nambler name was an acronym
577. 38:59for the North American Man Boy Love Association.
578. 39:04I know that makes me uncomfortable.
579. 39:05It makes me uncomfortable even thinking about it,
580. 39:07let alone saying it, but let's be real.
581. 39:17Petarists, you don't even have to really speculate
582. 39:23about it at all.
583. 39:25There's all kind of data that used to be readily available.
584. 39:29But following the book after the ball
585. 39:30and the whole Public Relations campaign
586. 39:32to where you can't find the show
587. 39:33that doesn't include a homosexual character
588. 39:35and homosexual character's always the wisest,
589. 39:37the smartest, the coolest, very rarely did the homosexual character have any negative
590. 39:41features at all in any of this public consumption media.
591. 39:44Guys, that's all programming.
592. 39:47That's all programming.
593. 39:54Who do you think are the ones behind the push to have Petarasty and Petafilia reclassified
594. 40:03as, oh, it's just another sexual orientation?
595. 40:11So you'll celebrate this when they hire them and when he gets the promotion, everything
596. 40:18is a huge deal, but now he's been arrested, soliciting sex from who he thought was a boy,
597. 40:23a little boy. And now it's all everybody. I don't say anything. It's sick, man. It's sick.
598. 40:38It's sick and in light of the bankruptcy that is gripped our nation, generally. And I point out
599. 40:47these things and John Adams warned us. He said, if we continue to have this external
600. 40:51reputation of being this, of being a type of nation where we're virtuous and where we're
601. 40:57all of these things but inside a nation we are rioting and all kinds of immorality our
602. 41:02nation will become the most miserable habitation.
603. 41:04And he said why?
604. 41:05Why?
605. 41:06Because there are no governments that are sufficient to contend with human passions unbridled by
606. 41:11morality and religion.
607. 41:12He said that the unbridened human passions will go through the, go through our constitution,
608. 41:19shred our constitution as a whale grows through a net.
609. 41:28And guys, this is what we're witnessing.
610. 41:31He concluded those remarks by saying,
611. 41:32because our form of government is only,
612. 41:35only effective for religious and moral people.
613. 41:37It is wholly inadequate to the governance of any other.
614. 41:41Why do you think there's such fervent efforts
615. 41:43to turn our government into something else?
616. 41:46And I'm not sitting here saying this is a new effort.
617. 41:48I want you to chart the scope of what has happened.
618. 41:52There's a reason why Woodrow Wilson and the Regressors came in
619. 41:55They say the first thing we got to do, we got to get rid of this idea of appealing to natural
620. 42:01rights and nature's God and this notion of inalienable rights and this idea that government
621. 42:06at its highest effecation be limited.
622. 42:09We got to get rid of that because Woodrow Wilson was applying into the American context,
623. 42:17the ideology of Gramcy that he wrote in his prison notebooks will never be able to overthrow
624. 42:24a society rooted in a Christian foundation.
625. 42:27So in order to overthrow that society must be severed at the root, it has to be entirely
626. 42:33cut from what it was founded to be.
627. 42:36Do you all see what I'm, do you see what's happened to our country?
628. 42:42It's not an immediate robust confrontational broadside is death by a thousand cuts.
629. 42:48Just a little leaven here, a little sleep and a little slumber.
630. 42:52Oh, you believe in the Bible?
631. 42:53That's so passé.
632. 42:54That's so old school.
633. 43:00the intellectually feeble could believe in something so ridiculous. Like what? Like, like,
634. 43:05amoeba tamunkey demand? That's surely grounded in logic. We have our own scientific method
635. 43:15that says that in order for the scientific method to be applicable, that the stimuli must be measurable,
636. 43:20observable and repeatable. And a nobody ever measured or observed or amoeba the monkey demand.
637. 43:25Yet you got all these people running around here, waxing as if they're smart and none of them
638. 43:28never seen it. But you know, because science, you know, the same science, they say, yeah,
639. 43:36let's mutilate children. And then the sweden, the north come back and say, Mm, not bad idea,
640. 43:41bad idea. No, we're not, we're not, we're not, we're not, we're not mutilating babies.
641. 43:45No more. We shouldn't do that. Oh, okay. The same science keeps telling me the Pluto
642. 43:51is and it is not a planet that science don't miss, because you what I'm saying, science
643. 43:59has value, but it doesn't usurped God's holy word. What is, what is, what is wrong with us?
644. 44:04We become so advanced that we have a life-tenured Supreme Court justice that don't know what a woman is.
645. 44:09And as your dacity when a case comes before her,
646. 44:17guys this is how this practically works out. A case comes before her when you have a Katie Charles in Colorado who says,
647. 44:23listen, I'm a counselor. If a child comes to me saying that they have unwanted sexual attraction,
648. 44:27my job is to help the child achieve the child's dreams in consultation with the parent.
649. 44:31But Colorado's saying, nah, you can't do that. No. No. They'll pass along. No. Bad, Katie. Bad.
650. 44:37You can't help a child what trend what it was fluid right gender fluid doesn't it wasn't that I'm trying to flows
651. 44:46It was TLC say don't go chasing waterfalls huh?
652. 44:52Colorado saying you could chase the waterfalls as long as you're chasing in one direction and the case has to get to the Supreme Court
653. 45:01To say if you could help them to go against their nature
654. 45:07And to violate guys or the why can't you help to be consistent with nature and that same Supreme Court justice who don't know
655. 45:14the woman is like, nah, you can't do that.
656. 45:17Man, come on.
657. 45:18Guys, the repentance is the order of the day, man.
658. 45:22I want to give you this data.
659. 45:25And this is the result of a Gallup Pollers release last week.
660. 45:28And basically it's chronicling with empirical data, a trend that many of us have seen.
661. 45:34And with the data showing that between 24 and 25, there was a 14% increase showing 42%
662. 45:43of young men, between the ages of 18 and 29 years old, that they find religion to be
663. 45:48very important to them in their lives, which is a diversion from the trends that proceeded
664. 45:54in the years following.
665. 45:56And here's the thing, this upward trend in religious religiosity is largely not occurring
666. 46:02in any other demographics, not at the same rate.
667. 46:06The only other demographics that are experiencing an increase are all in men.
668. 46:11So the men ages 18 and 29 have experienced their 14% increase, where 42% of men ages 18
669. 46:19to 29 years old are saying religion is very important to them.
670. 46:23Men ages between the ages of 30 and 49 saw a 5% increase over the same time span, time
671. 46:30span, and men ages 50 to 64 saw a 3-point increase.
672. 46:36That's not happening among our women according to the data.
673. 46:38It's not happening according to our women.
674. 46:43have young men, for example, 21-year-old Mr. Goobser explained that, quote, what I'm really, what
675. 46:51I was really looking for and what I'm still looking for is purpose. That's what he said,
676. 46:55look of a purpose. Now, there's a reality that our society has become overtly hostile
677. 47:00toward men using extreme examples of abuse and then papering all of masculinity with that,
678. 47:09describing masculinity as a whole, as toxic. It's like, man, come on, man, don't be stupid.
679. 47:15But you have just identified are things that are extreme in abuses.
680. 47:23But that's not the way that most men function.
681. 47:25Not even remotely close.
682. 47:27But it's a part of a demonically inspired, a feminization of society to try to push masculine
683. 47:33into the margins.
684. 47:34You know, except unless you have women become a more masculine, of course, that's all cool,
685. 47:39you see.
686. 47:41from the cut of the pants all the way to.
687. 47:50You know, it should be, as you said,
688. 47:53man, I can't even lift up my head.
689. 47:56I'm so ashamed of what we become.
690. 47:58Do you realize some of the top podcasts
691. 48:00in our country are women talking about
692. 48:03the nasty stuff that women do sexually?
693. 48:05Do you realize that?
694. 48:07Do you realize that?
695. 48:08When I did the show on On On, what's her name?
696. 48:11I used to encourage remarks, she cast her shoes on.
697. 48:12One of those nasty podcasts.
698. 48:16You know, she would never be present at the remix.
699. 48:18She couldn't find a way to any podcast, but somehow she was able to create a fake studio
700. 48:21in a hotel in DC to go on the same nasty podcast.
701. 48:25Why do you think all these people go on the same nasty podcast because it's popular?
702. 48:28Because it's popular.
703. 48:35You have men who have been rendered, they call some of the men in our society in sales,
704. 48:46involuntarily celibate, that's what they call them.
705. 48:50In the basement with the video games and the pornography, wasting away, and then having
706. 48:55society tell us, tell men that you're toxic.
707. 48:59The best thing you could do is come out
708. 49:01and to be a testosterone-laden female.
709. 49:03That's what we need in society.
710. 49:11I talk to young men, this is anecdotal, of course,
711. 49:14this is not the product of any study,
712. 49:16but I talk to a young man, to several young men,
713. 49:18and one of the young men, I always tell them to say,
714. 49:19man, you do realize it's your job.
715. 49:20If you recognize that God is calling you to be a husband
716. 49:23and you want to be a husband, it's your responsibility
717. 49:25to prepare yourself and be fortified in such a way
718. 49:28so that you would not compel your wife
719. 49:30to have to work outside of the home
720. 49:31generate revenue for your family.
721. 49:33I'm not trying to tell you what you need to do.
722. 49:35God will lead you to work out your family as you need it,
723. 49:37but you need to be prepared to carry the responsibility
724. 49:39for your family.
725. 49:41You should have thought of looking at his face like,
726. 49:42what, are you serious?
727. 49:44When we used to understand, I was like,
728. 49:49you know, you wake up in the morning,
729. 49:50you have some eggs, that's some OJ, men provide.
730. 49:55They used to be used to understand that.
731. 50:00Guys, our nation is in a far more desperate condition
732. 50:02than I believe the majority of us recognize.
733. 50:05I think a lot of us recognize that some things are off,
734. 50:07but we don't recognize why it's off.
735. 50:09That's what I'm driving toward.
736. 50:12We want to trim around the periphery
737. 50:15of the challenges without coming face to face
738. 50:17with the fact that it is a mere Lord standing
739. 50:20in the need of prayer.
740. 50:24The sin has eclipsed our heads, folks,
741. 50:28and we cannot expect the world to lead
742. 50:29in communicating the necessity of us turning
743. 50:33to our Lord and repentance.
