The Hamilton Minute

“And the LORD confounded them before Israel.” Joshua 10:10(a) (NASB95).

The World Health Organization (WHO) opened its annual meeting in Geneva, Switzerland. But its most regressive and ambitious project, the “Global Pandemic Treaty,” has been shelved… for now.

The WHO has worked these last two years to develop a treaty that would give it unilateral authority to declare “global pandemics” and to dictate health policy to individual nations. If adopted, it would effectively supplant national sovereignty concerning health policy.

Increased criticism from what was called “right wing activists” threw a wrench in their plans.

Thankfully, we’ve avoided this disaster… for now. Rest assured these regressive radicals will continue to their efforts. We must remain vigilant.

“Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses and said, "We should by all means go up and take possession of it, for we will surely overcome it.” Numbers 13:30 (NASB95).

Fresh off of the Exodus, the Israelites approached the Promised Land. 10 spies were chosen from the leaders of each tribe. Of the ten spies, only two of them—Joshua and Caleb, remained confident in the LORD. The others, withered in fear.

God himself observed that Caleb had a “different spirit.”

In a crowd of fearful naysayers, we are confident Calebs… because we work in in light of The Caller’s potency. If God be for us who can be against us.

“Now a new king arose over Egypt, who did not know Joseph.” Exodus 1:8 (NASB95).

Is it too much to ask to require Congress Members understand Memorial Day? For Representatives Ilhan Ohmar and Cori Bush, ignorance seems to persist unbound.

Memorial Day is a national day of observance set aside to honor and mourn those military service members who gave their lives while serving in our Armed Forces.

Representatives Ohmar and Bush made, and then deleted, social media posts purportedly addressing the living… for Veterans Day.

While disappointing, it’s not surprising that Squad Members like these two didn’t grasp the weight, gravity, and significance of mourning those who died while serving our country.

“Josiah was eight years old when he became king. He did right in the sight of the LORD.” Excerpted from 2 Kings 22:1-2 (NASB95).

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

Josiah’s ascendancy to the throne in Judah followed 57 years of wicked monarchial rule. Josiah’s grandfather was Manasseh. He reigned in Judah 55 years. The Scripture records him as one of the most wicked kings in Judah’s history. Manasseh’s son, Amon, followed him as Judah’s king. He was wicked too, just like his Daddy. He reigned 2 years in Judah.

Then comes Josiah. Though he was Amon’s son and Manasseh’s grandson, he charted a different path.

No matter how wicked your family history may be, that doesn’t dictate your destiny. Like Josiah, chart a new path.

“The acquisition of treasures by a lying tongue Is a fleeting vapor, the pursuit of death.” Proverbs 21:6 (NASB95).

In Chicago Public Schools, 16% of elementary school students demonstrated proficiency in reading. 12% showed proficiency in math. 16% of middle school students were proficient in reading, 12% in math. 14% of their high school students were proficient in both reading and math. These test scores aren’t referring to mastery. We’re talking about basic proficiency.

Nevertheless, the Chicago Teachers Union has demanded $50 billion in pay hikes and other absurd perks. There are about 340,000 students enrolled in Chicago’s public schools. Objective metrics show the children are not learning.

Yet, the teachers union demands a raise. Shameful.

“You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.” John 8:32 (NASB95).

The Jurupa Unified School District in California issued an edict requiring teachers  to address students by their preferred pronouns and to conceal from parents any “gender transitioning” students may pursue.

Jessica Tapia, a Christian and former teacher in the district, was fired when she refused the edict and because she posted about her faith and opinions on her private social media. Tapia said her faith prevents her from lying to children and concealing lies from the children’s parents.

She will now receive $360,000 from the School District to settle the wrongful termination lawsuit she filed against them.

Standing in truth yields vindication.

“You shall not murder.” Exodus 20:13 (NASB95).

The most senior medical oncologist in Japan slammed the COVID-19 mRNA shots as “the work of evil” that has caused “essentially murder.”

Dr. Masanori Fukushima, who spearheaded the first cancer outpatient clinic at Kyoto University and launched the first course in pharmacoepidemiology there, identified a slew of problems with the mRNA jabs, evidencing what he called an evil “abuse of science.”

He pointed out that “turbo cancers,” a kind “previously unseen by doctors” that progress extremely quickly and are typically in stage four by the time they are diagnosed, started to appear after the jab rollouts.

Dr. Fukushima added, autoimmune disease, neurodegenerative diseases, and other infections have also increased post-jab.

“Now the LORD said to Abram, ‘Go forth from your country, And from your relatives And from your father's house, To the land which I will show you.’” Genesis 12:1 (NASB95).

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

Genesis 12 begins with God calling Abram to leave Haran, his relatives, and all that was comfortable and familiar to him and directing him to the Promised Land. One of the first things Abram encounters in the Promised Land is famine.

When God directs us, we should never assume His will comes without difficulty. However, the presence of difficulty doesn’t nullify God’s direction. Our faithfulness to Him should never be determined by surrounding circumstances. When God calls, follow Him. Rejoicing follows obedience.

“Just as it is written, "HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWS OF GOOD THINGS!” Romans 10:15 (NASB).

A friend of mine who pastors in Nigeria once said to me “ya know, America has sent more missionaries into the world than any other nation before it.  But the nation that once sent missionaries has now become the mission field.”

As you consider the calling God has for you, I just want to remind you that just as other nations need missionaries we need missionaries in America too.

There are a lot of neighborhoods right here in our country that desperately need evangelism and discipleship. Let’s not forget them.

"Having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.” 2 Timothy 3:5 (ESV).

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

Today some professing Christians assert that Critical Theory, Critical Race Theory, and Intersectionality are helpful tools for the Church.  These people have an appearance of godliness, but their assertions deny the sufficiency of God’s Word to guide the Church in living out the reconciliation Jesus secured for us on the cross.

Make no mistake, as Paul told Timothy, the God-breathed Scripture is sufficient for teaching, for correction, for training in righteousness.

Those who have an appearance of godliness, but deny the power of God’s Word for doctrine and practice must be identified and avoided.

"She took of its fruit and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate.” Genesis 3:6(b) (ESV).

Genesis 3 records for us the cataclysmic rebellion against God in the Garden of Eden. The entire episode, Eve’s entertainment of the sensual lies of the talking snake, the deceptive twisting of God’s word, all of it transpired with Adam standing right there.

Adam was the one to whom God entrusted his word to originally, Adam was the one God charged with cultivating and protecting the garden and his wife.

Yet he stood there silent.

Men, let us not repeat Adam’s sin of present absence.

Stand on God’s word and defend your gardens!

"I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well.” Psalm 139:14 (NASB).

A generation has been taught they descend from animals, that there is no God.

They’ve been taught they are nothing more than a cosmic accident, they have no purpose and life has no meaning.

Life’s meaninglessness has been punctuated for them by the 60 million children who’ve been slaughtered in the womb… and counting.

But society is shocked when they act out exactly as they’ve been taught… like animals with no conscience.

Respect for human life begins with respect for the Life-Giver.

America needs repentance!

“For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until He comes.” 1 Corinthians 11:26 (NASB).

Buzz Aldrin is the famed astronaut who planted the American flag on the moon and explored it for some 21 hours.

What many don’t know, however, is what Mr. Aldrin did to commemorate the moon landing.

Aldrin, a committed Christian and Elder in his local church, marked the incredible occasion by celebrating Holy Communion.  This first meal ever eaten on the moon was a celebration of the LORD’s table, a lunar declaration that Jesus Christ is our LORD, Savior, and soon coming King.

That’s pretty cool.

“Jesus answered him, "If anyone loves me, he will keep my word.” 14:23(a) (ESV).

We live an era currently where spirituality is en vogue. Christ following is not.

Some, even claim to love Jesus while simultaneously rebelling against His word and encouraging others to rebel similarly.

But, Jesus said it himself: “if you love me you will obey me. Whoever does not love me does not obey my words.”

Make no mistake about it, to love Jesus is to obey Him. You cannot love Jesus and disobey Him.

If you are living in rebellion against Jesus’ word, you are not following Jesus as He’s revealed Himself in scripture. You’re following a god you’ve created.

“For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb.” Psalm 139:13 (ESV).

According to the CDC and the Guttmacher Institute the number one reason women choose abortion is they’re “not ready for a child.”

2) “Can’t afford a baby.”

3) “Don’t want any more children.”

4) “Don’t want to be a single mother.”

5) “Not mature enough to raise a child

6) “Would interfere with education or career.”

Those reasons represent 95% of all abortions.

Risks to the mother’s physical health represent less than 4% of all abortions and conception resulting from “rape and incest” represent 1% of all abortions.

The reality? Abortion is used as birth control.

“Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion.”  2 Corinthians 9:7 (ESV).

Merriam Webster’s dictionary defines socialism as an economic system in which the means of production are owned and controlled by the state. The distribution of goods are controlled by the state. It is a system where there is no private property. A stage of society in Marxist theory transitional between capitalism and communism.

American socialist put the descriptor “democratic” in front of socialism because they hope to persuade you to vote for… the elimination of private property.

Make no mistake, socialism is socialism. There is no kinder, gentler form of it.

“Just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned.”  Romans 5:12 (ESV).

A popular effort in social revisionism is happening where “racism,” which is better described in Biblical terms as skin-color-based partiality, is a crime of which only people with lighter skin color can be guilty.

Let’s be clear, factions, divisions, and dissensions, including those based on skin color, are the fruit of the sinful flesh.

The root cause of partiality is sin.

Every person, regardless of the quantity of melanin in their skin, is capable of partiality.

The only remedy for sin is the blood of Jesus Christ.

You shall not covet your neighbor's house or anything that is your neighbor’s.  Excerpted from Exodus 20:17 (ESV).

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said “an economic system that allows billionaires to exist is immoral.”

Someone may want to let the former bartender turned Congresswoman know that the top 1% of wage earners pay nearly 50% of all federal taxes.

The top 10% of wage earners pay nearly 70% of all federal taxes.

The top 20% of wage earners pay about 85% of all federal taxes.  That money funds things like our national welfare programs.

Don’t let them entice you to harbor disdain for the wealthy.  Socialists  bank on covetousness to gain support for their regressive policies.

“Do not rejoice when your enemy falls, And do not let your heart be glad when he stumbles.” Proverbs 24:17 (NASB95).

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.”
