The Hamilton Minute

House Republicans ousted Liz Chaney from the GOP Conference Chair position and voted 134-46 to replace her with New York Congresswoman Elise Stefanik. In doing, so they chose Stefanik over Representative Chip Roy of Texas.

As Conference Chair, Stefanik will have control of the party purse strings to roll out money to get Republicans she favors elected to Congress. The problem here is that policy wise Stefanik is just as much of RINO as Cheney, maybe even more.

The election was more about Trump loyalty than constitutionalism. In bypassing Roy, the GOP seems uninterested in conservatism.

Over 120 of our nations retired Generals and Admirals penned an open letter in which they said,

We are in a fight for our survival as a Constitutional Republic like no other time since our founding in 1776. The conflict is between supporters of Socialism and Marxism vs. supporters of Constitutional freedom and liberty.

They also said,

Under a Democrat Congress and the Current Administration, our Country has taken a hard left turn toward Socialism and a Marxist form of tyrannical government which must be countered… The survival of our Nation… and liberty… are at stake.

Will our nation listen?

Only 120 some odd days into the Mr. J. Robinette Biden administration, and it’s looking like the return of the Jimmy Carter days as the world is on fire… almost over night. Filling stations with no gas up and down the east coast, 178,622 illegal aliens tried to cross our southern border in April—a two decade high, in Israel Arab terrorists are on the verge of “full scale war,” prices are skyrocketing, inflation is shooting fear through the market… and… where is Mr. Biden.

From basement campaigning to the basement president?

There’s a new condition percolating through America. It’s called Biden regret.

The day of Pentecost concluded with 3000 converts being added to the initial body of 120 believers.  Then that 3120 spent time together daily going to the temple and interacting in each other’s homes. They devoted themselves continually to the apostle’s teaching, fellowship, sharing meals together and praying together.

The 3120 that made up the early church came from Turkey, the middle east and Africa, and included Arabs and Romans.  In addition to the geographic and ethnic diversity, they also spoke different languages.  Yet they were made one family in Christ Jesus.

Scripture has the answer to the issues we face today.

"And Moses said, ‘I will turn aside to see this great sight, why the bush is not burned’” Exodus 3:3.

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

In the burning bush encounter Scripture records that it began as Moses kept Jethro’s flock Exodus 3:1.

“When the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called to him out of the bush, 'Moses, Moses!' And he said, 'Here I am'" Exodus 3:4.

Notice, God didn’t speak to Moses until He gave full attention to what God was trying to show him.

Diligent attention to daily duty is necessary.  We must be careful, however, not to allow duty to become an idol.  Are our hearts still sensitive to God? Can God still get our attention?

For just as the body is one and has many members and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. For the body does not consist of one member but of many 1 Corinthians 12:12, 14 (ESV).

Look briefly at one of your fingers. You’ve just witnessed one of the greatest displays of God’s creative intent there is. No other person in all the world, even an identical twin, shares your fingerprint.

God specifically designed each of us to be unique. That means we shouldn’t try to carbon copy anyone else in the Christian faith.

If God made you an arm in His body or a kneecap, praise be to our glorious God for drawing us to become a part of His body.

How freeing it is to realize that we were never meant to copy anyone-but Jesus.

“Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward” Hebrews 10:35 (ESV).

Sometimes there’s a delay between crying out to God in prayer and seeing those prayers answered.

It is imperative for us in those times that we don’t waver in our confidence in our God.

The next verse goes on to say, “For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised.” Hebrews 10:36 (ESV).

You see, the delay between supplication and delivered answer is one of the ways God develops endurance in us.

He desires that the roots of our faith grow down deep, that we become trees planted by rivers of living water … steadfast, immovable, always abounding in His work. In this we grow beyond superficial Christianity.

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.

California's Secretary of State has announced that the requisite threshold number of verified signatures needed to place a recall initiative on the ballot in California has now been satisfied.

After imposing draconian Covid—related measures upon Californians, his treatment of churches like Grace Community Church in Los Angeles and North Valley Baptist Church in Santa Clara, which pleaded for Newsom to relent after being fined thousands of dollars for meeting in their building, all while he dined publicly, and mask-free, in expensive Napa Valley restaurants like the French Laundry, Californians have had enough!

Gavin Newsom may become next CA governor recalled from office.

In his response to Mr. J. Robinette Biden’s joint congressional address, Senator Tim Scott highlighted his own experience with discrimination, expressed a need for common ground on discussions of race in America, referred to America’s terrible history on racism, and stated directly that our journey toward [racial] healing is not finished. He also he stated, in light of our national progress, that America is not a racist country.

The entire world of regressivism descended upon en masse because of that statement.

The very next day Vice-President Kamala Harris said America is not racist country.

Regressives continue to excoriate Senator Scott. Kamala Harris… not so much.

Faced with complaints from parents about the indoctrination of children, Dr. Natalie Fallert, Literary Speech Coordinator and school district official in Rockwood, MO instructed teachers to create two sets of curriculum: a false one to share with parents, and a real curriculum focused on topics like activism and privilege.

Thanks to virtual learning, parents in the Rockwood school district discovered their schools were pushing Critical Race Theory and teaching children to become social activists via the at-home learning tool called Canvas.

In response, Dr. Fallert advised teachers to hide the real curriculum.

Just at the Biden administration removed Trump-era restrictions on fetal tissue research, thanks to a FOIA request from Judicial Watch, we now know that our United States Food and Drug Administration trafficked the body parts of babies slaughtered in abortions.

Our U.S. FDA purchased the organs of dismembered babies, demanded “fresh baby” parts like they were ordering meat from a butcher, bought the skulls of children murdered in the second gestational trimester all from a company that sold the skin of a 21 week-old murdered child who had down syndrome.

This is wicked!

“And although they know the ordinance of God… they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.”  Excerpted from Romans 1:32 (NASB).

Secretary of State Anthony Blinken has authorized U.S. embassies and consulates around the world to fly the rainbow flag, in celebration of the LGBTQIAP+ political agenda, on the same pole as the U.S. flag through the end of June.

Diplomatic outposts are not required to fly the flag, but Secretary Blinken has given the green light for U.S. embassies and consulates to do so.

They want to represent to the world that rebellion against God’s word is officially an intrinsic American value.

Over the last year grocery stores, churches, airlines and more have incessantly sprayed, disinfected, and wiped down surfaces. It was recommended and even mandated by the CDC… until April 5th.

That’s the day the CDC stealthily changed its website to include a discreet hyperlinked note saying, “in most situations, the risk of infection from touching a surface is low."

Click on the hyperlink and you’ll learn “studies suggest that the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection… via contact with a contaminated surface has less than a 1 in 10,000 chance of causing an infection.”

Thanks CDC.

The “woke” classroom revolution is about to go federal. Mr. Biden’s Department of Education has proposed a rule establishing grant priorities for America’s public schools in American History and Civics Education programs.

The DOE’s rule cited and praised the New York Times’ “1619 Project” as well as the work of Critical Race Theorist Ibram X. Kendi.

Scholars eviscerated the “1619 Project” as an anti-historical propaganda effort for straight up lying about America’s history and Kendi’s work papers everyone as perpetual oppressors or victims based solely on their skin color.

This is education to the Biden administration.

Planned Parenthood CEO Alexis McGill Johnson denounced her organization’s founder, Margaret Sanger, as a racist eugenicist in a op-ed for the New York Times. Johnson said nothing, however, about ending Sanger’s racial abortion focus  implanted in the DNA of this murderous organization.

Furthermore, Johnson took cover by embracing the full breadth and scope of transgender ideology, even setting the organization against “trans-exclusionary radical feminists,” regressive feminists who say men aren’t women… yeah regressive infighting.

Did I mention Planned Parenthood has become America’s largest dispenser of cross-sex hormones to minors? Abusing children for profit.

Same game. Different Court.

Seattle Pacific University’s Board of Trustees, a Christian University, voted recently to retain the school’s longstanding biblically-based policy requiring students and faculty to adhere to the Bible’s orthodox teaching on marriage and sexuality.

Thereafter the school’s faculty cast a vote of “no confidence” in the Board of Trustees because of its continued submission to biblical authority.

90% of all faculty members voted, 72% of whom favored the vote of the no confidence while 22% opposed it.

Imagine what the students are being taught when 72% of the school’s faculty are upset the trustees want to keep place Christian.

The United States Postal Service has been quietly running a program that tracks and collects Americans’ social media posts. The surveillance effort is known as the “Internet Covert Operations Program” or “iCOP.”

iCOP analysts are monitoring social media channels like Parler, Telegram, and Facebook for any potential “threats” and collaborates with federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies.

Anyone want to explain to me why the U.S. government would go to the Postal Service for examining the internet for “security issues?”

Can’t get mail straight, and now they’re in on national security?

"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).

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!

You shall have no other gods before me.

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 7^th 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.
