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.
0:36Welcome to the Hamilton Corner.
0:37My name is Abraham Hamilton the third,
0:40joined by the Corner contingent right across from me.
0:43This time is produced extraordinary,
0:46often imitated, never duplicated the real J. Mac.
0:49And that is because we are broadcasting live from Pennsylvania.
0:54We are here for the Christian Home School
0:58associations of Pennsylvania's 2026 convention. We're going to be
1:05participating there. I will have the privilege of addressing their
1:08graduating class for this year. And so we're looking forward to
1:12that is just so happens that we have some stuff lined up for today
1:16that just underscores why parents taking on the challenge and the
1:22responsibility responsibility in embracing what God has required
1:26them required of them concerning their children is is the order of the day.
1:32There was a hearing on Capitol Hill that just shows man that that when you when you send
1:39your children to these people, they believe they owned it.
1:46You know, Horace Mann said that we view parents who send their children to our institutions
1:51as having given hostages to our cause.
1:54know and they actually treat the children in that way. Not physically, I'm not
1:58talking about that, but I'm talking about ideologically and spiritually and
2:02we're gonna get into that as we go throughout the show a bit today later on
2:07in the program. We have some other things we're gonna get to first but in
2:10addition to produce extraordinaire the real J. Mac we have my man a hundred
2:14grand Mr. Bobby Rosa man in the board for us so that we can deliver today's
2:19program to you. This is the show where we remind you on a daily basis that what
2:24goes on in your house is far more important than what goes on in the White House. The
2:28goal there is never to minimize or to denigrate the goings on in the White House. Obviously,
2:35those things are important, but to simply recalibrate us to understanding that we are directly
2:40responsible for what we are responsible for what we have direct access to. Of course,
2:48we pray for what happens in the White House. Of course, we participate civically. Of course,
2:52We respond to action alerts, we send messages and things of that nature, but we have the
2:57wherewithal to be the thermostats in our own homes to where we don't merely take temperatures
3:03like thermometers, but we set the temperature in our own homes.
3:06And my encouragement to you is to refuse to allow the temperature in your home to be set
3:11elsewhere, but that you set the temperature in your home.
3:17This is why I describe very moment.
3:19Many of you have not, most of you are making your transition from your part time jobs where
3:23you generate an income to your full time jobs where you cultivate an outcome.
3:29And I want to encourage you to do so with intentionality, understanding the
3:33primacy that God places on the family and welcoming God's view to govern, to
3:39guard and to guide your view.
3:41And we're going to get into this starting right from the beginning with
3:44the scripture, but it's vitally vitally important.
3:47Now we understand the world is going to world, but we must not take our
3:51marching orders from the world.
3:52We must not do so. It is exceedingly grievous to God, first of all, and
4:00secondarily hindering to the body of Christ being what God has called us to be
4:06if we continuously allow the world to dictate to us where we should stand on
4:11various issues. And we're gonna get into it. I'm aware, been paying attention to
4:16the Carmelo Anthony trial in the Frisco, Texas area, Colin County, Texas, and it
4:22It's just, honestly, it's heartbreaking to me to see how easily things or tragedies like
4:31that are consistently utilized to perpetuate the bulkization of our country and kind of
4:42a ping pong, ping ponging of a grievance industry.
4:46You know, you have people calling in the phrase, the wok right, what really is happening is
4:51the Marcus's program is working because our society is being broken down based on these
4:57artificial delineations and you have people who are saying they're conservatives but they're
5:04saying in light of all of the wokeness and the retrograde expressions coming from the
5:09leftists that's what they call them.
5:10Y'all know I call them regressives because regressives is a regressivism is a bipartisan
5:14institution.
5:15to buy partisan initiative, you know?
5:18But you have the radical Marxism and second-way feminism
5:24and all of these things.
5:25And so then you have those on the right,
5:26well, who cares about individual liberty?
5:28Who cares about ordered liberty and constitutionality?
5:31We just wanna have our way asserted,
5:35regardless of constitutional norms,
5:37regardless of ordered liberty, regardless of due process.
5:41No, we just, and it's like, man,
5:42you are a regressive status,
5:44Just like the leftists are regressive statists.
5:47You just have a different flavor
5:48of how you want the state to function.
5:53And so you have this ping ponging
5:56of a grievance perception.
5:58You have people that wanna defend Carmelo Anthony
6:01for no reason other than the skin color.
6:03And what you don't realize is that
6:05that's kind of ideology that creates
6:07the Nick Fuenteses of the world.
6:09And then you have Nick Fuentes' ideology
6:11kind of laundered even into the church
6:14by people posing as pastors or professing to be pastors
6:18like Joel Webb and others.
6:20You know, this dude literally said,
6:22on a national podcast, he's debating
6:27Ruslan and Avery Austin God logic,
6:30and he's arguing that, well, no, it is against God's
6:34normative design to have inter-ethnic marriages.
6:38What?
6:41My boy, do you own a Bible?
6:45Let it all have you have you read this is this is absurd.
6:51This is absurd.
6:54And it's it's having outsized impact.
6:57And some of you listening to me is like, man,
6:59I've never heard this before.
7:00Some, some of the younger, less-melinated men
7:03are being persuaded by the weapons of the world
7:05and the phointazes of the world.
7:08I'm saying, what are you talking about?
7:10Don't you realize that all throughout the scripture,
7:14Miriam and Miriam Moses,
7:16assist had a problem with Moses marrying a Cushite wife.
7:20How did God respond to that?
7:24One of the major tribes of Israel, in fact,
7:26two of the major tribes of Israel, Ephraimimim and NASA.
7:29Do we need to talk about their ancestry?
7:32They're the product of Joseph marrying an Egyptian woman.
7:37God's prohibition in the scripture never
7:40had anything to do with ethnicity, never
7:42had any to do with skin shade.
7:45The thing that God prohibited was his people
7:48Intermarried with people who are pagans whose marriage would turn them away from Yahweh fidelity. That's it
7:55I'm a we can go on and on and on and on and then oh man, I got to get to the Word of God, but
8:05Weapon even says some idiocy like well, you won't find the scripture outright condemning polygamy. That's a lie
8:12First of all God announced his definition for marriage in the book of Genesis for this call shall a man singular be joined to a
8:19A woman singular and the two shall become one flash.
8:23Every time when you have violations of God's definition
8:27for marriage, it was chaotic in Israel's existence.
8:31Then in the New Testament, when Jesus is queried about marriage,
8:34he affirms what was articulated in the book of Genesis.
8:37This is Jesus, the hypostatic union.
8:39For this call shall amen, even though he knows all of the history,
8:43he knows about David in them, Solomon in them, Abraham,
8:46he knows about all the history, yet Jesus affirms.
8:48for this cause shall a man be joined to his wife and the two,
8:54not 25, not the troubles and quadruples and none of that.
8:58And the two shall become one flesh.
9:00What are we talking about here?
9:05To the word of God we go.
9:07Proverbs 28, five, I have more to say about that
9:10I'm sure you can tell.
9:13The Lord says this in the book of Proverbs,
9:14Proverbs 28 verse five, it says this,
9:17evil men do not understand justice,
9:22But those who seek the Lord understand it completely.
9:27If you've been listening to my program for any length of time, you've heard me say,
9:32that cries for justice void of the cross will rapidly descend into the pursuit of vengeance.
9:43Christ for justice void of the cross will descend rapidly into the pursuit of
9:52Vengeance and we are living in an environment to where grievance politics has gripped our country
10:00Across the political spectrum. I
10:04Mention what I said about Joel Webb
10:08Because this dude has literally asked the question if you have a black man a more
10:14a malinated man who is godly, who loves God,
10:17who shares your theology, who's upright,
10:19who's a member of the church where you're serving.
10:23And he wants to pursue your daughter.
10:25Would you be willing to allow her to pursue your daughter?
10:28You know what he says?
10:30Well, I would prefer for my grandchildren to look like me.
10:33And he says, if this is the only options available
10:35in the binary, and if there's a more malinated man
10:40who meets all my criteria, and there's a less malinated man,
10:43of course he'd say, he said black and white,
10:46But if there's a less-melinated man
10:47who meets all my criteria,
10:49I'm going to pick the less-melinated man
10:51because I want my grandchildren to look like me.
10:53Guys, that is touch-thown skin color-based partiality.
10:56And this is coming from a man who presses to be a pastor.
10:59So he's shepherding people and discipling people
11:04and discipling them into what Jesus said,
11:06whoa, to the Pharisees who diverse land
11:08and see the greater gain of prize,
11:10like to make them too full to child of hell.
11:13And he attempted to make his assertion in Avery
11:17And in Ruzeline kept the man and man,
11:18can you support what you say from scripture?
11:19He couldn't do it because the scripture doesn't support that.
11:23I mentioned just a couple examples.
11:25I can go all through two examples.
11:26Do I need to talk about Boaz being joined to Ruth,
11:28the Moabite?
11:32What are we, do I need to talk about?
11:34The ancestor to King David, Rahab the Canaanite.
11:39What are we talking about here?
11:42But guys, these things, these are worthy ideologies
11:45that have, they have been laundered
11:48and coming to the way of the church,
11:50to where you have, and this is a danger.
11:52You have people on both ends of the spectrum attempting
11:56to use scripture as a justification
11:59for the sinful partiality that they're harboring
12:01in their hearts.
12:04Young white men feel alike.
12:05Well, we've been persecuted by the world,
12:07so here's our response, then we're gonna be more worldly
12:11and who cares what the scripture says,
12:12well, we just need to have our governance.
12:16Using Alexander Duggar's reference to a Christian prince,
12:20We just need to have the government to enforce our preferences.
12:25You got Joe Webster saying dumb stuff like,
12:27yeah, this shouldn't be no freedom of speech
12:29in the ambit of so-called Christian nationalism.
12:32Man, this is foolishness, guys.
12:36Then you have people like Jasmine Crockett talking about,
12:39well, that was just a little bitty knife.
12:41Talking about, that's punctured a man's heart
12:44and stabbed him to death through the heart.
12:47What are you talking about?
12:49Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you forgot, eh?
12:51you have to put the shades on, you see,
12:54because the melanin shade is what governs
12:56how you evaluate evidence.
12:57Man, guys, this is not God's way.
13:01And I don't expect the world to lead in this,
13:03but I do expect God's people to reject the foolishness.
13:08Are we, are we, we talk about,
13:10I'm talking about Republicans and name only.
13:12Are we Christians and name only?
13:15That Christianity is just a convenient badge to wear
13:18when it fits my purposes,
13:20but when it actually comes down to applying
13:22God's Word says that, nah, we got to retreat to our tribes.
13:27We have to retreat to, guys, it is bad, man.
13:36It's bad.
13:37And you know the thing that it shows, it shows the lack of gravity that the professing church
13:47has.
13:48And it reveals frankly that the Lord's bride, His remnant is probably a lot smaller than
13:52we think it really, really is.
13:54you get down to brass taxes.
13:56Because you get through the whole thing.
13:58Joe weapons on screen, he used a lot of words,
14:00trying to sound fanciful and sound educated.
14:02But the bottom line was he prefers less-melinated skin shade.
14:06That's what he prefers.
14:08That's what it comes down to.
14:09Skin color, skin shade.
14:11That was the determining factor for him.
14:12And he was upset that, no, I don't want a United States
14:15of America where we don't have a significant quantity
14:19of people with my preferred skin shade.
14:21You know what that's called?
14:22Skin color is partiality.
14:24You know what that's called?
14:25Sin.
14:29But when called to repent,
14:30nah, he don't want to repent,
14:32he's gonna try to use,
14:34you know, word smithing,
14:40to conceal the true malevolent of the sinfulness
14:43of his heart on this issue.
14:46And I pray that the Lord opens his eyes.
14:49This is the Hamilton Corner.
14:52Yeah, we ready to roll today.
14:53Thank you all for tuning in to the program.
15:01A discipleship minute with Joseph Parker,
15:04Spiritual habits are so important.
15:06Being God's Word absolutely every single day
15:09on a pretty regular basis.
15:10I challenge believers to set the goal of reading
15:12at least three chapters in your Bible each and every day.
15:15Why is that important?
15:17Because amongst other things, the Word of God
15:19refers to itself as being the sword of the Spirit,
15:22and that's exactly what it is.
15:23Well, when you're consuming God's Word,
15:25when you're reading and meditating on it,
15:28it's equipping you with the weaponry of God's Word.
15:30The most powerful weapon in the universe
15:33is the Word of God.
15:34And when you're reading and studying God's Word,
15:37it's equipping you to be a better equipped soldier
15:39who knows how to take the weapon of the sword of the spirit
15:42and use it wisely and productively.
15:45As we prepare ourselves for battle on a daily basis,
15:48we can prepare to stand against the devil
15:51and not only just to defend ourselves,
15:53but to do battle with him and to take territory away from him.
16:04This is John McRother inviting you to join me
16:06for Portra So Grace.
16:08If you notice how people tend to compare themselves to others when evaluating their own
16:13righteousness, but God's standard is much higher.
16:17In fact, Jesus said you must be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect.
16:22God doesn't compare you to others.
16:24He compares you to Himself.
16:26And apart from Christ, everyone fails that comparison because we've all sinned and fallen short
16:32of His glory.
16:34But at salvation, God imputed Christ's righteousness to you.
16:39That is, He put it to your spiritual account.
16:43Therefore it's your faith in Christ that made you pure, not your personal achievement.
16:48Let that truth bring joy to your heart and praise to your lips.
16:52This is John MacArthur trusting your lives are portraits of grace.
17:05Shiting light into the darkness, this is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
17:13Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton the third here.
17:18I alluded to this already in the first segment, but I'm going to say it again now.
17:21And I should mention we're broadcasting live from Pennsylvania where we're here for the Christian
17:27Home Educators Association of Pennsylvania's 2026 convention, looking forward to being here
17:33the next few days and pouring it as the Lord would allow me to pour and also to be encouraged
17:38by those who are here.
17:42I'm telling man, I'm just gripped by the consistent and predictable and repeated phenomenon to
17:53where we dehumanize people and are using people like Austin Metcalf and Carmelo Anthony really
18:03as avatars for pre-existing identitarianism.
18:10Just stop for a second.
18:11with the skin shades and the people were reversed.
18:13How would you assess the facts of the case?
18:15Based on what you're aware of.
18:18And the other thing is, it's like,
18:20do we, are we incapable as a society,
18:23a positive for a moment of reflecting on the fact
18:27that both of these young men are bears of God's image
18:31and to mourn the horrors of the tragedy across the board
18:37to where the senseless act of violence
18:41has deprived the Metcalf family of their son
18:45Carmelo Anthony, his family will be forever changed as well.
18:53Sent us to 35 years in prison.
18:56It was a first degree, offense in Texas, in Texas.
18:59The range of punishment potentially is five to 99 years
19:02of war life.
19:04The jury came back for 35 years in Texas.
19:06It's considered a 3G offense because of the Texas
19:10code of criminal procedure where it falls
19:12into the penal statute.
19:14So you're gonna have to serve half of the time
19:16for become parole eligible.
19:21But it's just disgusting to me.
19:23It's disgusting to me.
19:27Because you have Jasmine Crockett saying,
19:30oh, well, that little bitty knife.
19:31What are you talking about?
19:34You know, a deadly weapon is not only the instrument,
19:36but also the manor used.
19:41And you use a knife to stab a person
19:43and stop their heart.
19:44It's certainly a deadly weapon.
19:45I mean, what are you talking about Jasmine Crockett?
19:51And then you have on the other side people saying,
19:52yeah, see, because, you know,
19:54or white men are under assault.
19:56Stop the presses, man.
19:57No, you're not.
19:58You're not.
20:00You're not.
20:01Well, statistically speaking, that happens way more than others.
20:04How often does it happen across the whole?
20:08Guys, this is foolish.
20:09This is foolish.
20:11And so you have a resurgence of things happening
20:15that I thought we were past.
20:20I thought we were past as you have our lighter shade brothers
20:23now making excuses for harboring sinful partiality
20:27in their hearts, harboring it,
20:33Saying things I keep talking about Joe Webb because I just watched one of his stupid videos
20:36not too long ago, he made this statement that 90 to 95% of you know black churches are heretical
20:42and you make such a statement.
20:45Have you assessed all of the churches where you have more melanated people in this country
20:49than are populated by more melanated people?
20:51Listen to show you know I'm saying there's no such thing as a black church.
20:54Stop the presses.
20:55But are you going to ignore the reality of how the whole phenomenon of the black church came
20:58about?
21:00Are we gonna we gonna ignore that we're gonna ignore a limo hings and others and how they were excluded from worshiping together?
21:06That's that's how it started guys
21:08There would have been no such thing as a black church if less melanated Christians
21:13What will in the worship with the more melanated?
21:15More melanated saints, you know the way it happened in the first century, you know when you had the church at Antioch
21:20It would never exist and then on the opposite side you have the perpetual grievance industry or since they conversely
21:29with Jasmine Crock and all these other people are saying that it doesn't matter
21:32what the facts of the circumstances are, it doesn't matter what the context is
21:37that based on skin color we are going to adhere to these marks-driven labels of
21:44oppressor and oppressed based on nothing other than skin color. And frankly I'm
21:49sick of it. I'm not sick of it coming from the world, I'm sick of it filtering its
21:55way in the church. The world is gonna world, I don't expect the world to
22:02understand this. Evil men cannot understand justice. So it's that easy for all of us across the board
22:15to put our Bibles down and to put Christ down. If skin color is the issue, skin shade is arisen.
22:23And so all of a sudden there's a jettisoning of any kind of biblical thought, any kind of
22:28fidelity to scripture, any kind of willingness to worship the Lord, any kind of desire to be
22:33objective and assess things objectively for what they are.
22:37I'm not ignorant of what's happened in this country, but how long are we going to be captive
22:42but what has happened in this country?
22:45I know about red lying and all of those things, but that doesn't govern everything that's
22:49happening now.
22:50I'm just tired of it, man.
22:55I'm just tired of it.
22:56I'm just tired of it.
22:59People continue on.
23:01You can set your alarm or it's coming.
23:04Here it comes.
23:05Somebody about to say lynching.
23:06Here it comes.
23:07Oh, this is a modern day lynching.
23:08Man, I have a friend who not too long ago had a scenario where he's driving a car and I'm
23:15not going to go into all of the details.
23:19But there was an older, less-melinated woman who of our own initiative was walking behind
23:26his car.
23:27And my friend who was more-melinated unbeknownst to him struck the woman with the vehicle.
23:37And I'll be, I'll add this in.
23:39It was in Louisiana.
23:41And there are many people who would have anticipated,
23:44oh, here he goes.
23:46Now, none of this is on the media,
23:48and I'm gonna tell you why I wasn't on the media.
23:51And here he goes, oh, here he goes,
23:54oh, you know, black man strikes white woman,
23:58oh, you know what's gonna happen next, Jeff,
24:00you know what's gonna happen?
24:02My friend called me, we talked, you know what happened?
24:06Nothing, because the woman who lost her life
24:13was contributory negligent in her conduct of her affairs, that my friend had no ability to see her,
24:19not at all. And so when his vehicle struck her, it literally, oh, don't want to say that, was an
24:30accident, an accident. And I'm, I'm, my friend is probably listening to the show right now,
24:43and my friend is saying, man, Abe, listen, I didn't do anything wrong. I'm gonna stand on God's word,
24:47And he didn't do anything wrong.
24:51I won't go into all the details, but it ended up turning up, turning out that my friend spoke
24:55to the family members of the deceased woman.
24:59The family got to learn that my friend was a pillar in the community.
25:02He was a Christian, and it ended up becoming the God moment of grace between my friend and
25:07the family of the deceased woman.
25:11Now I know it right now.
25:12Some of y'all listening to me say, come on, Abe, that ain't happened.
25:15That ain't true.
25:16All right.
25:17Well, I'll just tell you this.
25:18I love God way too much.
25:19It's a lot of y'all.
25:22And also my friend is probably listening to this show right now.
25:29How long you can only stay trapped as long as you allow yourself to stay trapped?
25:39I say long ago, man, I don't understand it.
25:42I cannot reconcile these two contradictory notions where you have people on a Sunday,
25:48they'll queue tight tripping.
25:49I got the victory.
25:51I got the victory.
25:52You know, I got the victory.
25:59then the next day, nah man, I'm a victim.
26:02Like what, pick one!
26:06You can't be perpetually both at the same time.
26:12And I guess what you're hearing from me is just,
26:17I agree for the Lord's bride
26:19because it seems that we get caught up in this.
26:23And so you cannot have a reasonable, objective conversation
26:28about the instances on the facts.
26:32It has to be laden with this oppressed, oppressor dynamic that is a perpetual phenomenon.
26:41While at the same time, saying we want to go forward, I said the same thing when people
26:45were predictably gone berserk after Louisiana versus Kalei Supreme Court decision.
26:50I'm like, man, what do we want to be?
26:51What do we want to be as a people?
26:57Do we want to be the type of people to where we grow beyond the horrors of our history or
27:09not?
27:11to the point, what kind of church will be in this nation? I refer to Acts 17 very often for our Lord
27:19determined before time the boundaries of our habitation and the times in which we would live so that
27:26men should seek God. You think he's surprised by the makeup of our nation? I was talking earlier about
27:38this. Guys, it's not just, it's not just idiotic, it's sinful. It's sinful for Joe Webb in to say
27:46If there's two Christian men equally qualified to marry my daughter, I want to pick the one
27:51with the lighter skin shade because I want my grandchildren to look like me. That's a personal
27:59preference, but it's a preference that is anchored in what the scripture would call partiality.
28:07And when I'm talking about his sinful, sinful, the simple component of it is when he says
28:12that his preferences are because
28:17sameness and skin shade is consistent with God's
28:21quote unquote normative design.
28:24That's just a flat lie.
28:28That's a flat lie.
28:32And I think it's just a coincidence, Joel,
28:35that, you know, Rahab and Ruth, the more by test,
28:40they just happen to be in the lineage of our Messiah.
28:43I think that's just a coincidence.
28:45It's just it's a coincidence that on acts two on a day at Pentecost you have literally men from all over the world
28:52People from all over the world and and as a spirit of God
28:57It's distributed mucks all men
29:01That you have those who are outside the upper room hearing
29:06Our Lord being praised in all of their length. I guess that's just that's just a coincidence. That's just a coincidence guys is sickening
29:15is sickening and I'm addressing this here because there is a CD underbelly in the
29:23various corners of the interweb where you have this returning to partiality but
29:40you're trying to sanitize it but they're trying to sanitize it and it's sickening.
29:48In the Carmelo Anthony case the jury returned its verdict in three hours. I've
29:56I've tried homicide cases.
29:57A three hour verdict on the homicide cases
30:00is a pretty strong statement.
30:04It's a statement from the jury that the evidence
30:07was sufficiently compelling
30:09that led them to reject the self-defense claim
30:13that was asserted at trial.
30:17Now, if you wanna talk to me about details of the trial,
30:21you wanna talk to me about, you know,
30:23bats and challenges during jury selection
30:26that were heard and rejected.
30:28You want to talk to me about evidence presentation by all means?
30:30Let's do it.
30:31But don't come to me talking about where I, you know, I, it is a, you know, I mean,
30:35cause you got on hand, you got this skin shade and on the other hand, you got this
30:38skin shade.
30:39You know, I was going to turn out.
30:40No, I don't know.
30:40I was going to turn out.
30:41I don't know.
30:42No, I don't.
30:44I don't.
30:46From my own personal experiences, from what I've seen in courtrooms, I can tell you
30:50stories, but most importantly, from what I see in the scripture, from what I see in
30:54the scripture, I told you story about my friend.
30:57According to that, Marx's paradigm, my friend would be in Angola prison right now, but he's
31:04not.
31:05He's leading a ministry, leading his family, loving his wife, loving his children, and has
31:10a marker on his staff that even in deep South Louisiana, we have a situation that would have
31:16been probably unheard of years ago.
31:20I'm talking about in the 40s and 50s, maybe.
31:25We have a more melanated man whose vehicle struck a less-melinated woman and she died following
31:32her wounds.
31:33But the police investigation showed that my friend was not at fault, not even criminally
31:40negligent, not even a negligent homicide, nothing because it literally was an accident
31:47and the lady who lost her life unfortunately was at fault.
31:53Someone say, A.B. and I.E., if you can call me what you want.
31:56I'm gonna tell you, like I told those people the first time
31:59I was accused of this insidious insult.
32:03I was, ooh, you're a conservative.
32:05And at the time I didn't know what the word meant.
32:07And I said to them, what I'm gonna say to you now,
32:09you can call me whatever name you want.
32:11But the one thing that I will do and that I know
32:13that Jesus saved me and I have committed my life
32:18to trying to live according to what his word teaches.
32:24And if that's a problem for you,
32:26then I'm sorry that you have that problem.
32:31But that's me and my house, we gonna serve the Lord.
32:33We're not playing these stupid games.
32:35We're not going to be so predictably triggered
32:39and such emotionally infantile people
32:45that you just whispered to Jim Crow up up in arms.
32:51Well you were, they're replacing us.
32:58You know, people that may wanna hear this.
33:03But the first part of God's command to mankind
33:06was to be fruitful and multiply.
33:08I wonder what would happen if we had people in our country
33:11that actually took that seriously.
33:13And we didn't allow so many of our children
33:15to be slaughtered in the womb, Jesse Ridgeway,
33:21and his wife, they were so consumed by the potential
33:27of a Down Syndrome diagnosis,
33:29that they were not interested in allowing their son
33:33to grow to full-term and be delivered.
33:40When we reject God's way, man, we suffer.
33:44And we've been diminished to such a degree
33:47to where though God says children are a blessing,
33:49most people functionally treat and think of children
33:52as nothing other than burdens and impediments
33:55on their pursuit of American dreams.

36:05The Hamilton Quarter podcast
36:07and one-minute commentaries are available at AFR.net.
36:11Back to the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
36:16Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton.
36:19The third here.
36:20The one thing I wanted to point out, this is a stat that has come across my desk a couple
36:25times and resonated with me because we have a young man in our local church who he wants
36:30to be a farmer.
36:31And I was encouraging him and his family is encouraging him.
36:35The high water mark for family owned farms in the United States of America was six and a
36:42half million family farms in 1920.
36:45had like I said six and a half million family farms not corporate farms but
36:53family farms owned in our country in 1920 well as I am talking to you in the
36:58year by Lord 2026 that number has now plummeted to two million family farms in
37:05our country so in a little over a century we have hemorrhaged over four
37:14and four and a half million farms in our nation.
37:18And as you heard me say, darkness is not an affirmative
37:22force, but it reoccupies the space that is vacated
37:24by the light.
37:26What has often happened is the farming enterprise
37:31is not continuing generationally.
37:34So you'll have one family owns a farm,
37:36and then the next generation would decide,
37:39now we're going to do something else.
37:41And don't give me, I understand farming is hard.
37:43challenging but it's such rewarding work and it has almost unrecognizably created a national
37:54security issue because as the number of family farms in our nation has decreased, nations
38:00like China has stepped in and they're providing, you know, pork and beef and other things that
38:10some instances are not necessarily up to the quality of what we should desire in our nation.
38:20And I alluded to this during the program last week. There's a reason why we have
38:28such prevalent iterations of obesity and I'll say it this way, process sugar-related health
38:38conditions. All the way from diabetes to cognitive issues later in life and in many ways, you
38:46know, there's an old adage, let your medicine be your food, let your food be your medicine.
38:50Well, in many ways, we're poisoning ourselves by our consumption habits. And a part of that
38:56is there is a bit more distance between our food and our consumption. And so I wanted
39:03to put that on your radar and to encourage some young people like the young man in our
39:07local church, man, you consider farming. What a valuable and viable way to invest your life
39:16in providing healthy foods for your neighbors to consume for your own personal development
39:24and also for your neighbors. And I know that there's in some sectors of our country, there's
39:30a push in that direction.
39:33I'm thinking about Rory and Becky Groves,
39:37who are on this program.
39:41Several years ago, I got to have them back on
39:44to talk about utilizing land and farming
39:46and things of that nature.
39:46These are things and skills that used to be far more prevalent
39:50in our country and in many ways, we kind of lost that.
39:53And I pray amongst the things, man, that we've learned
39:56or that we would learn as Schmovich has shown us
40:01that if we're going to thrive as a nation,
40:03we cannot be relying upon people who wish us harm.
40:07So in 100 years to have a dearth in family farms,
40:12dropping from six and a half million
40:14to barely hitting two million is gravely problematic.
40:21All right, now I wanna share a little bit with you now
40:23because there was a hearing on Capitol Hill just yesterday
40:28and we get the name of the hearing.
40:35Because the hearing, yes, the hearing was titled
40:45Breaking Trust, a Tax on Parental Rights,
40:49Inappropriate Content and Legal Abuses in America Schools.
40:52And so you had representatives,
40:55buckle your seat belts when you hear me say this,
40:57you had representatives from Loudon County, Virginia,
41:01San Francisco and Chicago who all testified.
41:04And these are places who have had some of the most egregious instances of abuses and rejection
41:14of parental rights that we've seen in the country.
41:17And yet they were there on Capitol Hill and treating the hearing as not an instance to
41:31help the American people and the families that they purport to serve, but really just defending
41:36their bureaucracies. Listen to you and watch clip number three, clip number three, go.
41:42The title of this hearing of the House Committee on Education and Workforces,
41:46Breaking Trust, Attacks on Frontal Rights, Inappropriate Content and Legal Abuses.
41:51It set the premise for the line of questioning the school district leaders were faced.
41:55Committee Chair Congressman Tim Walberg's first question to SFUSD Superintendent Dr. Maria Sue
42:01was about drag queens.
42:03I am really proud to be the superintendent
42:05of San Francisco Unified School District.
42:07What age are students prepared for drag queen story hour?
42:12Well, we welcome all 49,000 students as they are.
42:16Superintendents from San Francisco, Chicago,
42:18and Loudon County, Virginia were grilled
42:20by Republican members of the committee
42:22on subjects like diversity training, restroom policies
42:25for transgender youth, and the rights of religious parents
42:29to opt out of certain curricula.
42:34So you heard the representative from San Francisco and the
42:37congressman's question is very direct.
42:40At what age do you owe San Francisco beer crack?
42:46Dean, it's appropriate for children to be regated with drag queen
42:49story hours and you heard the.
42:54Dodge because they're playing dodgeball.
42:57We're happy to serve all 49,000 of our children.
43:00Not, not you know, as well as I know, drag queen story hour is not
43:03about the children. That's an adult. You have a grown man who comes to read a book
43:10who's dressed up like a woman. That's not. And the administrator wouldn't answer
43:19the question as to what age is appropriate. You know, he had Loudon County where you
43:23had the horrible circumstance where one of the most popular cases where we have a
43:29had a boy who came to school identifying himself as a girl and the school knew
43:33about this and gave him access to the girls intimate facilities and the boy sexually assaulted
43:40one of the female students. Then, under the most apparent allowing county they just transferred
43:45the boy to another school where he repeated the thing. Some of the lesser known violations
43:50because the Loudoun County continued to allow access to intimate facilities by children
43:56who would identify themselves inconsistently with their biology. You had situations where
44:03You had a boy who for three years, three years,
44:07was taking photos and videos of girls in the locker rooms
44:10and in restrooms for three years.
44:15A girl was giving access to a boys locker room
44:18and a harassment claims came from there.
44:23You had the Mahmood versus Taylor Supreme Court case
44:26that said if you're gonna teach these LGBTQIAP plus
44:31all of this stuff, parents have to be notified
44:32and given an opt out what you have schools
44:34understand, and I'm not sure when I'm following that. And it's just seeing this
44:40display of hubris on Capitol Hill, you know, it's like what it's really like, it's a
44:45who gonna check me boo status kind of disposition. Like this what we do who
44:49gonna check me you ain't gonna check me we're gonna do what we want to do. You know
44:54it's like and Bobby you recall his guy's name who ran for governor in Virginia
44:58not too long ago when he said parents have no say over what's taught to their
45:02children, he ended up losing to Glen Yunken. My God, it's his name,
45:07slipped, slipped, slipped my mind at the moment. Ralph Northam,
45:13thank you, because that's how a lot of them think. And I understand
45:23that that's not everybody and not everywhere. But you know, what
45:27is everywhere that our nation has a stasis that the status quo
45:34position is God must be excluded from the cultivation of the
45:38mind at the intentional systematic level. If there are exceptions to where maybe in certain
45:47areas where teachers are able to kind of in a in a on the fringes so to speak and in some
45:55way to risk their career by violating the status quo and to try to sneak God in. Understand
46:03that that is an aberration from the status quo. That is it that is an exception from the
46:08status quo and that is a violation of the status quo.
46:14But the majority normative experience is that God must be excluded to which I just asked
46:22the very simple question.
46:23And this goes to the point of why I'm here in Pennsylvania, in Virginia last week and
46:28in Pennsylvania this week.
46:31How can we execute God's command for his heritage that would be the children he entrusted our
46:40care to be reared in his nurture and admonition if the majority of our children's waking hours
46:48excludes the knowledge of God from the cultivation of their minds.
46:53That is the question I'm asking.
46:56I think the evidence is in what evidence ain't?
47:02Look at our nation.
47:06The government indoctrination system is the only system where 90 plus percent of each generation
47:12of Americans have been subjected.
47:17It's not college folks.
47:20Not 90% of the American population doesn't go to college.
47:24No, let me say that differently.
47:26College does not enjoy the presence of participation
47:30of 90% of the American, 90 plus percent
47:33of the American populace.
47:36There's no other system.
47:42How long?
47:45And I've mentioned this before, the late voting
47:48Ockham said, how long will we continue to send our children to Caesar to have their minds
47:54and hearts cultivated yet act surprised when they come home as Romans?
47:59How long?
48:01At some point we have to recognize that it's not a bug, it's a feature.
48:13One other thing I mentioned on the way out, there's a new study released by researchers
48:19Caitlyn Myers and Ezekiel Hooper of Middlebury College in Vermont.
48:25They analyzed the connection between the release of the iPhone in 2007 and the overall decrease
48:32in fertility since then in a study that was published this month by the National Bureau
48:39of Economic Research.
48:42They go on to chronicle empirically that the rise of, well, the introduction of the iPhone
48:50into our country has contributed to, this is kind of, these are broad strokes from the
48:56study, contributed to a transition in social interaction away from physical interpersonal
49:03interaction toward digital interaction.
49:08and the interaction is through the phone.
49:10So socializing social groups, kinetic interaction is not occurring.
49:18It's happening through the medium that is the iPhone.
49:24There was another study that was published in May by two universities of Cincinnati professors
49:29titled the Collapse of Fertility in the Digital Era who also tracked their study to 2007.
49:37they go on to say the iPhone initially was just made accessible through AT&T.
49:42Then in 2011, it became more accessible through other carriers and they go on to highlight
49:51how those time periods coincide with the precipitous reduction in American fertility.
50:00I'm bringing this information to your attention just to once again,
50:06bring to the foreground when we reject God's way.
50:09We are the ones who suffer.
50:11One of the major things, and this is not specific to fertility,
50:16but the scripture gives us an example in Acts chapter 2
50:20that the body of Christ in the first century gave themselves
50:23to the breaking of bread, to prayer, to fellowship,
50:26and breaking of bread to prayer, to fellowship,
50:30and the apostles' doctrine.
50:32There was interpersonal fellowship
50:34was a vital component of the life of the first century church.
50:38But in many ways, and I am not a cromedient concerning technology,
50:43but I do believe Romans 12 applies across the board
50:46that we shouldn't be conformed to this world, but transformed by the renewal of our minds.
50:52It should be concerning to us that we have so many, you know, churches that say, oh no, we're
51:01digital. We're an online church. How does that comport with the biblical instruction to refuse,
51:13to forsake the gathering of one's selves together.
51:18What I'm saying guys is when we supplant real-time
51:25kinetic interpersonal interaction and replace it
51:28with digital interaction, we're going to lose a vital component
51:33of what God is ordained for us as bearers of his image.
51:37The views and opinions expressed in this broadcast may not
51:44necessarily reflect those of the American Family Association
