Nick Sandmann has received a settlement from CNN after his $275 million libel lawsuit against them.

The settlement amount is undisclosed, but knowing his lawyers Nick’s nickname now is likely Nicky Rich.

Interestingly, during the suit, CNN initially filed a motion to dismiss, arguing that calling someone a ‘racist’ is not a provable fact and therefore does not rise to the level of libel.

They made this argument in court while CNN talking heads call President Trump and others racist as a statement of fact almost daily on their network.

The argument failed because now, CNN has paid, literally, for their lies.

Delusion Denied

“Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.” Colossians 2:6-7 (ESV).

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

The verses from Colossians I just quoted are immediately followed by:

See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.

The delusion and deception of humanistic philosophy require its prey to become bitter, entitled, and unthankful.

To remain impervious to deception, we must abound in thanksgiving to God.

Thanksgiving empowers us to reject the captivity of today’s grievance culture.

Notice the Pattern
January 13, 2020

“The first to plead his case seems right, Until another comes and examines him..” Proverbs 18:17 (NASB).

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

The “experts” and the talking snakes have been wrong about President Trump since 2016.

The so-called “experts” said the President’s trade war with China would destroy our economy.

“They” said moving our Embassy to Jerusalem would spark unrest.

“They” said moving troops in Syria would result in genocide.

“They said striking Soleimani would lead us to war.

There’s a pattern here, folks.

Regressive opposition to President Trump has nothing to do with principle.  The globalist cabal despises anything resembling an America first agenda, but President Trump is doing exactly what the voters elected him to do.

Disgraceful

“Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts.” Psalm 51:6(a).

Speaker Nancy Pelosi tweeted at 6:31 p.m. Monday night that she was “closely monitoring the situation following bombings targeting U.S. troops in Iraq.”

At 5:40 p.m., however, nearly an hour before Pelosi tweeted her public statement, a Politico reporter tweeted “In a meeting tonight Speaker Pelosi was handed a note telling her VP Pence was on the phone. (Pelosi said) ‘Tell him I’ll call him back.’ Two minutes later, she was handed a note about the air base bombing.”

No time for the Vice-President about our troops, but Pelosi had time for a restaurant grand opening in D.C. at 6:14 p.m.

Disgraceful!

What About John?
January 09, 2020
00:00:59

Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man?”

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

At the climax of the account when Jesus restored Peter’s personal relationship with him, and Peter’s call to ministry, He saw John following them.

Jesus had just predicted that Peter would give his life for the Gospel, when Peter said, “What about John, LORD?”

Jesus responded, “What does he have to do with your calling? You follow me.”

With those words, Jesus hit a consistent flaw of the human condition.  We derive value and self-worth by comparing ourselves to other people.

Your ups, your downs, your failures, your victories were never meant to be compared to other people.

We have been called to serve an audience of One. The only approval you need is His.

Congressional Candor

“For nothing is hidden that will not become evident, nor [anything] secret that will not be known and come to light.” Luke 8:17.

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

MSNBC's Chris Hayes invited TX Congressman Al Green on to his program to defend himself against Republican accusations that Democrats "reverse engineered" impeachment by searching for a set of facts to fit an impeachment narrative.

Instead of refuting that accusation, Green confirmed its accuracy.

Congressman Green said, “Well, the genesis of impeachment, to be very candid with you, was when the president was running for office…”

Well, thank you Congressman Green for confirming what we already knew.  This sham is nothing more than an effort to overturn the will of the American people.

207 members of Congress have signed an amicus brief urging the U.S. Supreme Court to revisit its Roe v. Wade opinion.

The brief was filed in conjunction with Americans United for Life in a case pending before the Court challenging a Louisiana Law that requires a doctor to have admitting privileges at a hospital within 30 miles of the facility where an abortion is performed.

Justice Clarence Thomas has already gone on record indicating his willingness to revisit Roe.  He’s said “when faced with a demonstrably erroneous precedent, my rule is simple: We should not follow it.”

Justice Thomas is right!

Decisive Response
January 06, 2020
00:00:59

“A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” James 1:8.

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

In response to the Iranian-led attack on the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, President Trump ordered an airstrike that killed Iranian Quds Froce leader Quassim Suleimani and the Iranian supported Popular Mobilization Forces leader Abu Mahdi al-Mohandes.

Suleimani drove Iran’s state-sponsored terrorism.

General Mark Milley, Chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, said, “the game has changed.” If the Iranian-backed forces attack U.S. interests again, particularly the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad,

there is sufficient combat power there, air and ground, that anyone who attempts to overrun that will run into a buzz saw.

Living Intercession
January 03, 2020

“So Aaron took it as Moses said and ran into the midst of the assembly. And behold, the plague had already begun among the people. And he put on the incense and made atonement for the people. And he stood between the dead and the living, and the plague was stopped" Numbers 16:47-48 (ESV).

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

Often, when the concept of intercession is raised, we normally think about prayer and we should. Prayer is one form of intercession.

Here, we see another – living intercession.

At the climax of a plague, Aaron runs into the fray, armed with incense, and where he stands, the plague stops. Aaron literally stands between the living and the dead.

May God move us to be living intercessors for our day, and where we take our stand in Christ, the plague stops!

Under God
January 02, 2020
00:00:59

You shall have no other gods before me.

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

In 1954 Americans lived under constant threat of nuclear attack from the USSR.

When American children practiced duck and cover in classrooms across the country, President Eisenhower realized that our pledge had no distinction from any other republic.

After hearing a sermon on February 7th of that year, President Eisenhower signed a law adding the words “under God” to our pledge.

The president recognized the true source of unity, of indivisibility is unwavering submission to the God of the bible.

As we go about our day, let us all remember the only true source of national unity is submission to almighty God.

Go to the Other Side
January 01, 2020
00:00:59

“Immediately He made the disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds” Matthew 14:22.

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

Here Jesus instructed His disciples to cross a lake and meet Him on the other side of it. As they went, they were met by a violent wind storm that halted their progress.

Often in our Christian lives we receive clear instruction from the LORD, only to be met by an obstacle that halts our progress. We must, however, recognize that the onset of a storm does not cancel out God’s instructions.

Halted progress does not equal denied destination.

When Jesus directed the disciples to go to the other side, He absolutely meant for them to get there.

Delay does not equal denial.

Fatherhood Matters
December 31, 2019
00:00:59

Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

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

Statistics show that children who grow up without a father are 5 times more likely to live in poverty and commit crime. They’re 9 times more likely to drop out of school and 20 times more likely to end up in prison. Yet the percentage of children born to fatherless homes has skyrocketed in America. As of 2015, 25 percent of white, 53 percent of Hispanic and 73 percent of black babies are born into fatherless homes.

While Scripture teaches that the weight of raising children in the discipline and instruction of the Lord falls upon fathers, seems like we need a movement that says fatherhood matters.

Saul's Armor
December 30, 2019
00:00:59

“Then David said to Saul, ‘I cannot go with these, for I have not tested them.' So David put them off” 1 Samuel 17:39.

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

As David prepared to face Goliath, Saul tried to outfit David with Saul’s personal armor. But David didn’t have Saul’s armor when he faced the lion or the bear, and David realized he did not need the armor to slay Goliath.

Today, many Christians yield to the temptation to be hipper, cooler, and even a little fuzzy on the clear teachings of Scripture in order to face the Goliaths of our day. But Jesus said, “If I be lifted up, I will draw all men" John 12:32.

We don’t need a cool light show to be an ambassador for Christ. All we need is to offer what we have freely received.

We know the transforming power of Christ because He has transformed us.

Gates are Defensive
December 27, 2019
00:00:59

“I will build My church and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it” Matthew 16:18.

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

What are gates? They are defensive tools used to keep stuff out, to keep an advancing force at bay.

Too often the enemy is successful in putting Christians on defense, when the facts are the Lord established His church as an aggressive, offensive, territory-taking body.

The Lord never meant for us to sit on the sidelines of life or to cower in the corner as a result of the wickedness in our culture.

A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. The light of the world cannot be contained.

The Lord is building His church and the mamby-pamby gates of Hell shall not prevail against us.

The D-Word
December 26, 2019
00:00:59

Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scoffers.

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

One word has proven to be debilitating in our society: the D-word.  Discrimination.

What we fail to realize is discrimination is not automatically a dirty concept. We discriminate against thieves and murderers when we send them to prison. We discriminated against sexual predators by keeping them away from children. And yes, we rightly discriminated against men when we keep them out of women’s restrooms.

According to Psalm 1, we have to discriminate against the counsel of the wicked in order to be blessed. Good thing God isn’t debilitated by the D-word.

Ts Attack

“And if the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.” Matthew 15:14.

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

Gay and lesbian activists, along with their bisexual allies, are about face hostile opposition.

Not from those pesky evangelicals, whom many expect. It will arise from amongst their own regressive ranks.

There is much conversation today in the activist community that challenges LGB orthodoxy and this challenge is coming from transgender activists.

They assert, if gender is on a spectrum, then homosexuality and bisexuality don’t really exist because they can only exist where sexuality is binary.

In transgenderism, lesbianism, gayness, and bisexuality are a ruse, because you can’t really be male or female.

The LGBs are getting trouble from the Ts.

Christmas Bonuses
December 19, 2019
00:00:59

“It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Acts 20:35.

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

Edward St. John, owner and founder of St. John Properties, created a $10 million Christmas bonus money pool for his 198 employees.

Each employee, including the maintenance staff, receptionists, brokers, and executives, received a Christmas bonus check.

The bonuses averaged $50,000 per employee with some bonuses reaching the $250,000 and $270,000 mark.  The bonuses were awarded based on the length of time each person has worked for the company.

The employees cried in exuberant joy saying this bonus changed their lives forever.

What wonderful generosity from Mr. St. John.

I doubt you see these types of Christmas bonuses given in a socialist country.

UK Conservatives

“The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him.” Proverbs 18:17.

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

Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s Conservative Party has won a thumping majority in Britain’s Parliament.

The decisive outcome to a Brexit dominated election will allow Johnson to fulfill his plan to remove Britain from the EU on January 31st.

Despite the English’s media’s predictions to the contrary, the election delivered the largest conservative majority since the Margaret Thatcher era.

Many regressive pundits frothed at prospect of England having its first openly Marxist Prime Minister in Jeremy Corbin predicted and Corbin’s election indicated what would happen in America in 2020.

But the Brits rejected Communist Corbin. Freedom won!

Killing Lazarus
December 17, 2019
00:00:59

“So the chief priests made plans to put Lazarus to death as well.” John 12:10.

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

After Jesus resurrected Lazarus his and Lazarus’ fame spread.  They already planned to kill Jesus.  But now, because Lazarus was tangible evidence of Jesus’ resurrection power, the chief priests and Pharisees plotted to kill Lazarus too.

They never worried about Lazarus before. But now, because he is a walking billboard of Christ’s power, they want him dead too.

This, brothers and sisters, is why many come against you.  It isn’t personal, but Satanic forces can’t stand your representation of God’s power to transform lives.

That’s why we rejoice when we’re slandered for His namesake. Christ’s power is on display.

Be Transformed
December 16, 2019
00:00:59

“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God – what is good and acceptable and perfect” Romans 12:2 (ESV).

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

Paul’s epistle to the Romans was written to believers. This verse highlights the fact that it’s possible for Christians to be conformed to the world’s ways.

The word “conformed” there means to be squeezed into the mold of another. Rather than to be squeezed into the world’s mold, the Lord requires us to be transformed by having our minds renewed by God’s Word.

Everything about us must be held up to the light of Scripture. And whenever there’s any discrepancy, we must be transformed.
