Communist China is beginning to rapidly increase its footprint in the Caribbean as it seeks to dethrone the United States as the world’s leading superpower. Just a couple hundred miles away from the U.S. Virgin Islands, China has started to take over the paradise island nation of Antigua.

U.S. intelligence agencies have surmised that China is using its commercial and diplomatic presence in the Caribbean for military purposes. China has already used commercial agreements at host-country ports in Asia, Africa, and the Middle East for military aims. This pattern will repeat in Antigua.

The cascading “protests” from Ivy League campuses to university campuses all around the country are nothing more than an importation of Mao Tse-Tung’s cultural revolution, which transformed China into a community nation, to the United States.

Just as Mao’s revolution targeted Chinese college campuses, regressives in our own nation have descended upon American campuses with the same goal in mind.

Soros-funded agitants are using Israel’s efforts to annihilate the terrorists who massacred their citizens and took hundreds captive as an excuse to advance their revolution.

As Obama’s former chief of staff said, you never let a “crisis go to waste.”

“Have you not read that He who created them from the beginning made them male and female.” Matthew 19:5 (NASB95).

Nine states have now filed lawsuits against the Biden administration over its new Title IX rules forcing all K-12, schools, colleges, universities or any organization receiving Title IX funds to allow males to use women’s restrooms, locker rooms, and to compete in women’s sports and vice versa.

The Attorneys General for Montana, Louisiana, Mississippi, Idaho, Texas, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina have all filed lawsuits over the administration’s interpretation of the civil rights law.

It is patently unconstitutional for the Biden administration to unilaterally amend a congressionally passed statute in furtherance of its regressive agenda.

“For this reason a man shall leave his Father and Mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” Matthew 19:5 (NASB95).

Melania Trump pushed for “equality for all” at a $10,000-a-ticket fundraiser for the Republican LGBTQIAP+ group, Log Cabin Republicans and Mar-A-Lago. The group’s sole mission is to normalize the sexual deviancy socio-political agenda within the Republican Party. Mr. and Mrs. Trump seem to be completely on board with this objective.

Former U.S. Ambassador Richard Grenel, who co-hosted the event, wrote on “X” that they raised $1.1 million dollars at the event.

There’s an unapologetic effort afoot to redefine conservatism.

Redefined conservatism is not Christianity.

"And He answered and said to them, "Why do you yourselves transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?” Matthew 15:3 (NASB95).

My name is Abraham Hamilton, III and this is The Hamilton Minute.

In Matthew 15, Jesus exposed the Pharisees pernicious wickedness by contrasting their tradition with God’s command. God said honor your father and mother.

The Pharisees tradition was to refuse material support to their biological parents by declaring “Corban. What would’ve have been given to parents is dedicated to God.” Since they functioned in the priestly role, the Pharisees’ “Corban” declaration simply meant they kept the money for themselves.

Heart conditions can be revealed by how we treat our parents, especially as they age.

God’s command rivals our culture’s tradition.

"Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it.”  Genesis 1:28 (ESV).

According to the most recent reports provided by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), researchers looked at fertility rates for women of all age groups and ethnicities and found the nationwide rate was 16% lower than what is needed for a population to replace itself.

There has been much discussion about the demographic winter in various European countries.  Well, that demographic winter has reached the United States.

The first command God gave mankind in scripture was “be fruitful.”  But, man has the penchant to fancy his own ways over God’s.

Rejecting God’s ways always carries severe consequences.

“What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood is crying to me from the ground.”  Genesis 4:10 (ESV).

According to the World Health Organization, abortion was the leading cause of death worldwide in 2018.  As of December 31, 2018, 41.9 million babies were murdered in the womb last year.

That is more than the 8.2 million people who died from cancer in 2018, more than the 5 million who died from smoking, and more than the 1.7 million who died from HIV/Aids in 2018 globally COMBINED!!!

Thomas Jefferson once said, “I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that his justice cannot sleep forever.”

LORD, please strengthen us to abolish this wickedness!

For you formed my inward parts.  you knitted me together in my mother's womb.

According to a recent study published by the Christian Post, 76.3 percent of all abortions are obtained by "God-fearing women."

With 68.7 percent who identify themselves as Christian women, and 18 percent of all abortions obtained by self-discribed

born-again or evangelical women.

A corresponding Care Net study found that many women with unplanned pregnancies go silently from the church pew to the

abortion clinic, convinced the church would gossip rather than help.

America's greatest need is repentance.

When the hearts of the American people turn to God, everything else will be impacted.

"But ye [are] a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people” 1 Peter 2:9 (KJV).

Hannaniah, Mishael, and Azariah weren’t the only Jewish exiles in Babylon.  They weren’t the only people under Nebuchadnezzar who knew that YHWH expressly prohibited worshipping graven images.

Yet, they are the only three recorded in Scripture who refused to bow down and worship the golden statute.  Though they were an extreme minority they refused to go along to get along with the Babylonian culture.

The way of Christ-following may be in the minority today, it is nevertheless The Way.

Resolute is the disposition of the fully persuaded. In this modern day Babylon, be one of the three.

“And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.” John 12:32 (ESV)

My name is Abraham Hamilton, III and this is The Hamilton Minute.

Full weaponization of the federal government to crush a political opponent, politicians and a political party that bill themselves as pro-life while refusing to actually do what’s in their power to stop the killing of little babies, the successful and unrelenting advance of Regressivism…

All of these are signs that our national condition is not merely a natural phenomenon.  It is spiritual.

Civic engagement without spiritual engagement produces political roller coasters.  National course correction will only come by national repentance.  We must elevate Him.

When their mom passed the Landau brothers of NJ had a garage sale to clear out their mom’s house, but they decided to keep a few things including mom’s old creepy painting of a woman passed out in a chair and two men trying to revive her.

Fast forward to their estate auction and the brothers found themselves fielding bids from France and Germany for the painting.

Turns out it was a long lost Rembrandt that ultimately sold for $1.1 million.

A trained eye spots value where others don’t.

"From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth…”  Ephesians 4:16 (KJV)

My name is Abraham Hamilton, III and this is the Hamilton Minute.

It's not by chance that Jesus refers to his Church as “The Body.”  Just as it is with our physical bodies every member has a distinct role and function to fulfill.

Unfortunately, in the era of celebrity Christianity we’ve reduced the concept of ministry solely to what occurs in what is often little more than Sunday productions and performances.

The key to thriving in God’s Kingdom is understanding that every member in The Body of Christ is vital called to ministry.

They said to each other, "Did not our hearts burn within us while He talked with us on the road, while He opened to us the Scriptures?"

These words were shared between Cleopas and his companion on the seven mile walk from Jerusalem to Emmaus as Jesus, in resurrected form, used the Hebrew scriptures to reveal himself to them as the Messiah.

There are at least 109 distinct biblical prophecies the Messiah has to fulfill. The mathematical probability of such a feat occurring is astoundingly absurd.  Yet that absurdity is satisfied in Jesus the Messiah.

Come let us adore Him.

“Then Saul clothed David with his armor. He put a helmet of bronze on his head and clothed him with a coat of mail.”  1 Samuel 17:38 (ESV)

40 days of twice daily taunting from Goliath sent Saul and the Israelite army reeling in fear.  But David’s passion for YHWH, conviction, and full persuasion stirred King Saul.

When people are on fire for God it often provokes others to glob on to that fire.

But we must be careful to resist the well-meaning overtures of the flame-less by-standers.

Saul meant well, but his armor couldn’t help.  It would only slow David down.

"Salt [is] good: but if the salt has lost its savour, how will it be seasoned?” Luke 14:34 (NKJV)

Matt Walsh wrote a piece for the Daily Wire where he said, "The contemporary American Christian is the most open-minded person to have ever existed.  He’s so open minded you can hardly tell he’s Christian, or has a mind at all…

He has for a long time been open to the idea that marriage isn’t permanent and sex isn’t meant exclusively for marriage.  He’s basically open to whatever notions are popular…

He is open, and where he is not open, he is silent."

“Your land is desolate, Your cities are burned with fire, Your fields strangers are devouring them in your presence; It is desolation, as overthrown by strangers.” Isaiah 1:7 (NASB95).

The state of Michigan is pushing a program offering to pay its citizens $500/month to take in aliens. The program, called the Newcomer Rental Subsidy, is set to provide housing outside of state shelters for “refugees.”

The monthly payments would be available for up to one year, totaling $6,000.

The state of Michigan included this in its state budget and seeks to use Michigan tax payer money to house aliens.

Thanks to the Biden administration, every state has become a border state.

Jonathan Haidt, a social psychologist at NYU-Stern, said the rise of smart phones are directly attributable to the decay of Gen Z and the rise of mental illness.

He said,

All of a sudden, boom, in the blink of an eye, childhood became about sitting down and looking at a screen, hour after hour, year after year. And that I believe is the major reason why rates of mental illness go skyrocketing around 2012, 2013.

The very concept of social media, “desperately fighting for attention,” has been detrimental to adolescents because they’re learning these behaviors during puberty.

“Flee immorality. Every other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the immoral man sins against his own body.” 1 Corinthians 6:18 (NASB95).

There are three full months and 28 days in which the U.S. government celebrates the sexual deviancy social political agenda. Yet, the Biden administration too the one day Christ-followers celebrate the resurrection of our LORD to proclaim it Transgender Day of Visibility. Why?

Because LGBTQIAP+ has become the nationally sanctioned U.S. state religion. It has become America’s golden statue and our government requires everyone to bow to it at every turn.

But, like Azariah, Hananiah, and Mishael, we don’t do the bowing to statues thing over here.

“For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.” Romans 1:25 (NASB95).

In a mandatory course on “structural racism” for first-year medical students at UCLA a guest speaker who praised Hamas’ October 7th attack on Israel led students in chants of “Free, Free Palestine” and demanded they get on their knees and touch “mama earth” with their fists.

The guest speaker went on to offer a “prayer” benediction for “black, brown, and houseless” people who die because of the “crapatalist lie” of “private property.” That’s a quote.

Did I mention this all happened at UCLA medical school?

Regressivism has even invaded medical training.

“For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord, being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.” James 1:7-8 (NASB95).

My name is Abraham Hamilton, III and this is The Hamilton Minute.

The Apostle James introduces us to the notion of a double-minded man as one who doubts whether God can grant the wisdom necessary to successfully navigate and overcome trials.

The one who remains steadfast, unwavering in their confidence in God, in the face of adversity is able to rejoice in the midst of trials because of the faith produced by intimate communion with God and full persuasion of His unyielding goodness.

The unstable man is “double-minded” as to whether God remains trustworthy at all times and in all seasons.
