    Darkness is not an affirmative force. It simply reoccupies the space vacated by the light. This is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio. It should be uncomfortable for a believer to live as a hypocrite. Delivery people out of the bondage of mainstream media. And the philosophies of this world. God has called you and me to be his ambassador. Even in this dark moment. Let's not miss our moment. And now the Hamilton Corner. And welcome everybody to the Hamilton Corner sitting in for Abraham Hamilton the third yours truly. Bishop E.W. Jackson, great to be with you again tonight. I know that we are licking our wounds after the election on Tuesday, but I've got some things to say and I want to hear what you have to say about the outcome. The first thing I want to say is before we get into anything else is this. Don't curl up, toughen up. Don't curl up, toughen up. Don't curl up into a fetal position and whoa is me and this is terrible and we're now going to mourn and whine. No, no, no. We are going to simply get tougher because we know that we are in a long-term battle to save our country. This is the scripture that the Lord reminded me of when the outcome was clear. You all remember in Judges chapter 20 there is a Levite from the area of Ephraim and he has a concubine who runs off back to her father's house. The nature of that relationship is not entirely clear, but obviously this is his woman. So she goes back to her father's house. He sets out to go get her, spends some time with her father.

  2. 2:00

    Father apparently has a good relationship with this man. And after some days there, they set out to go back home. And in the course, they end up in a town in Gilead, in the Ben Benjamin territory, the tribe of Benjamin, and they're gonna stay in the open square because he didn't have any place to stay, and a man invites him to come to his home and stay there. Hospitality, Middle Eastern hospitality, Jewish hospitality. And so he goes and stays with the man. Well, in the course of that evening, some men show up, just as happened in Sodom and Gomorrah, some men show up, and they want to have sex with the man who is visiting. They demand that he be sent out so that they can rape him. Finally, they are unable to reason with this sex-crazed mob. They send the woman out. Well, they abuse the woman all night long. The woman returns at the front steps of this home falls down dead. He takes her body, cuts it up, sends it to the four corners of Israel to, as a testimony of the evil that these Benjamites have done. 11 tribes gather together and say these men must be held accountable. They go to the leaders of the tribe of Benjamin, say, produce these men. They must be held accountable. And the Benjamites say that we're not producing them for you and we're not holding them accountable. of Benjamin at that point, as obviously it reached a very, very low level of depravity. And the other level of tribes say, well, then if you will not produce these men who have done this wickedness, it is war. So they gather together and they attack the tribe of Benjamin. And in the first battle against 11 tribes to one, the 11 tribes lose 22,000 men. They are routed.

  3. 4:05

    they are absolutely decimated. Well, obviously they go to God and say, Lord, wait, wait, wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. Lord, we are on the right side of this issue. We are trying to bring justice to the situation. Why in the world are we being routed this way? Should we, are we on the wrong track, should we just give this up and go home? God says no, go up again. They go up again. They lose another 18,000 men. Now that's a total of 40,000 fatalities, 40,000 fatalities into battles. Well needless to say at this point they are even more chagrined in thinking, man, we somehow, we may not be hearing God right. I mean, what is going on? They go to God again and say, Lord, what should we do? And God says, go up again. And of course, when they go up again, they completely route the menjimites. all practical purposes kill almost all the men in the tribe so much so that they feel guilty about having destroyed a tribe of Israel and decide that you know what we're going to we're going to do something to try to rebuild the tribe that's a tribe of Benjamin I should say we're going to do something try to rebuild the tribe of Benjamin because we don't want to destroy a whole tribe of God's people. My point is they didn't win the first time, they didn't win the second time. And in fact, the defeats were absolutely cataclysmic, but God had a plan. They said, well, Bishop Jackson, why in the world would God allow them to lose all those people they were fighting for the right cause? They were trying to bring justice for this dead woman and for the man who had been victimized by having her killed. Well, I'd say I think the answer is this. Now God is not our on call magician.

  4. 6:08

    God does work miracles in our behalf and God does do marvelously supernatural things to help us. There's no question about it. But I'll tell you what God doesn't do. God doesn't want to turn us into wimps, depending upon miraculous intervention and never expecting to have to suffer any defeat, any setback, any hardship so that we really end up being wet noodles who fold at the least bit of difficulty. That's why I say we got to toughen up, not curl up. Imagine the children of Israel say, you know what, Lord, we don't care what you say. 22,000, that's it and we're done. We're going home. But they stuck with it and they ultimately won the battle and ultimately just just prevailed. So I say the same thing to us here. We've suffered a tremendous setback. We've suffered a tremendous setback. But we have to fight on. You know, there's a song I love that goes in this life, we face many battles, but they're not yours. they belong to the Lord. Put on the armor of God, delight yourself in his word, but don't give up the fight. It's too late to give up now. We've already made a decision for Jesus Christ. We're not giving up. Don't give up the fight. The war was won by Jesus on a hill called Calvary when he gave his life for you and me. So wipe your eyes, don't cry because everything is going to be all right. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning time.

  5. 8:14

    So fight on, fight through the rain, fight through the pain, fight when you're up, fight when you're down, fight through those fears, press through those tears. Jesus is on the throne. So I would say that to you right now. We've got to fight on. We're going to get into some of the specifics and later on I want to hear what you think. And so I want to share with you my thoughts because they're a little different than what we're hearing from most people. You know, we're hearing that we suffered this loss because of the war in Iran. I believe that may be in part true, but I think that's only true in the sense that I I do really believe that President Trump did not make a mistake by depriving Iran of the ability to have nuclear weapons. That was nothing wrong about what he did regardless of the political outcome. But I do believe that the back and forth of all they wanted to negotiate and all that. I mean, that to me, and of course I have the utmost respect for President Trump and his negotiating ability, I don't know who he was listening to, who was advising him. But that to me is living in La La Land. I don't believe that the Iranian regime has any interest whatsoever in negotiating any kind of peace deal, any kind of arrangement. I think these people are fanatical apocalyptic nutcases. And given the opportunity to able to destroy America and destroy Israel, they are the biggest exporter of terrorism in the world. These people are not interested in negotiation. They're mad men. They're not rational, not in the sense that we think of it, of rationality. And I think he would have been better off to just going in and just wipe that regime out. I mean, just absolutely wipe them out, destroy all their infrastructure, just bomb them back into the Stone Age and then let some new leadership arise out of that, that maybe would be willing, seeing those results, would be willing to negotiate, would be willing to talk.

  6. 10:31

    So I think that that the way it's been handled has hurt us Because you know the back and forth and we're fighting and we're not fighting and we're negotiating and they don't want to negotiate And they want to make a deal. They don't want to make a deal I just don't think I don't think that's been a good look Even for those of us who are completely supportive of the president's policies and the general direction Which he's trying to lead the country and if that's true for people like me He who is an unequivocal supporter of President Trump, wouldn't the world do you think that means for people kind of, kind of like him and kind of like some of the things he does, but they don't have the same level of enthusiasm. They don't see him as the historic figure that has really, at least for the time, he's an office-saved America that some of us do. So I think that's been part of the explanation. I don't think the war itself is the problem, but I do think that the back and forth and the the way it's been handled as part of the problem and may well have led to some diminution in the level of support that the president might normally have gotten. But I want to know what you think about it, whether you think that played any role at all and whether the back and forth has bothered you at all. So that's one. But here's the second thing that I have heard this mentioned, but it's not given enough attention. No, the Republicans are, I'll tell you, the Republican Party establishment, I mean, what analogy can I use here that maintains the classiness of this networking program? I mean, because folks, I tell you, I tell you, some not very nice metaphors come to mind. Because, you know, I think Ron DeSantis is absolutely right.

  7. 12:35

    This Senate, for example, they could have done away with the filibuster, they could have passed some laws that would have been on the books and would have been impossible for the Democrats to undo because the president would have the veto pen and it could have changed the nature of our country for perhaps generations to come literally, but they wouldn't do it. They didn't pass the Save America Act. There are a bunch of appointments that have never been made. Now we'll see whether they finally buckle in and say, now we've got to get all these judicial appointments made in behalf of the president so that we make sure that we have some conservatives, some constitutionalists, some textualists who are in the pipeline, maybe for the Supreme Court at some point, when the time comes that we have another Republican president, another conservative president, I should say, more importantly, they just basically did nothing. And I think it really is quite disappointing and disgusting because they should have known that the moment might come when the Democrats would be back in control and they should have have done everything they could to solidify, to codify the president's executive orders and policies that he's put in place in regulations. Unless they do something in the lame duck session, the Democrats will come in and they will do their demonic best to undo everything the president has done. Basically by harassing the whole regulatory apparatus. Folks, this is Abraham Hamilton the 3rd's program of the Hamilton Corner. I'm just sitting in for that great young man. This is Bishop E.W. Jackson. I'll be talking to you shortly.

  8. 14:35

    Got one more set of things I want to say to you and then I want to open up the lines so we can talk about this debacle that just happened on November 3rd. Back in a moment. Hello, I'm Abraham Hamilton the 3rd. Did you know that this content is listener supported? people like you, this podcast would not exist. That's why we need you. A generous monthly gift of any amount will help sustain American family radio and specifically this podcast. Please consider becoming a monthly financial partner today by visiting aFR.net slash give. That's aFR.net slash give. Shiting life into the darkness. This is the Hamilton Quarter, an American family radio. And this is Bishop E.W. Jackson in for Abraham Hamilton the third. So as I was saying, I really believe that there is a lot of disgust and disenchantment with the Republican establishment, with Senator Thun and that whole crowd up there who basically in the Senate have done nothing. I think they should have done away with the filibuster and I think they should have jammed through every piece of legislation they could. Why didn't we pass federal legislation that would protect young people, minors, against being physically mutilated by this whole transgender madness. Why didn't we pass legislation that would protect an unborn baby from being murdered up until the moment of birth?

  9. 16:35

    And perhaps in some cases even after birth. Why didn't we pass a Born Alive Infant Protection Act? Why didn't we pass the Save America Act? We could have without the filibuster, we could have, so that you can't vote in our elections. If you can't prove that you are an American citizen, what is the problem? What is so radical? What is so wrong? What is so right-wing about that? It's basic common sense. And one could go on and on. I mean, the things that the president has done, why didn't we pass legislation that would enshrined border security as a matter of law and make it impossible for any president, unless he is going to violate the law completely, to open up those borders and start allowing people in on any basis whatsoever. Why didn't we do that? But they didn't. I've got an even more profound question than that, because that to me is really the short-term question, something that the things they could have done in the last two years of the president's Trump's second term. But folks, and this one really makes my blood boil, I have to say, I have been saying for maybe 30, 35 years, maybe longer than that, the Republican Party and the conservative movement has a ready constituency in black churches and Christians who are socially conservative, but they are politically liberal because the demon krats with their lies, their deceptions have convinced them that even though you may not agree with us on abortion, even though you may not agree with us on same sex marriage, those Republicans are so racist and they so want to enslave you and And they so want to lynch you and they so want to destroy your life that you've got to vote for us just for your survival.

  10. 18:55

    I mean, if George Bush gets elected, he's going to put you back in the slavery. As Joe Biden said, they're going to put you all back in chains. Yeah, and all of his feigned, so-called black intonation that he could muster. I mean, why have the Republicans sat by? Now, let me give you a fact, folks, that you will find stunning and you may have heard me say this before, but if you haven't, if this will stun you. And if you have, the reminder is really poignant. Twenty years ago, liberal millionaires and billionaires got together with Stacey Abrams. And she laid out a plan that said, we can take Georgia from the Republicans. We We can take Georgia from conservatives. And here's how we do it. Now this wasn't her plan, wasn't original to her. Others had come up with this. We radically racialized the black community. We keep pounding home the slides propaganda. You're in danger from the racist America, the white supremacist nation, and they're out to get you. They're out to destroy you, and you better be on your guard. and you better vote for us because we are the ones who are going to protect you. We are your little mini messiahs. You better vote for us. Don't let all that Christian stuff get in your way because yeah, you might enjoy going to church, but I tell you, you let all those bad white people get a hold of you and they're going to destroy you. Now folks, I know that's stark, but that's really what they've been doing. And then the other thing you do is all the foreigners, the foreigners quote unquote of color, which I've ridiculed that notion because I've never met a person who didn't have color, have you?

  11. 21:03

    But you know, that's their little cute way of dividing people, the people of color, I guess, versus the people who don't have color. Oh, I'll tell you, I just drip with disdain for that nonsense. But let's cobble together all those people, Asians, Hispanics, Africans, West Indians, you name it, Indians, anybody we can cobble together, the people of color need to stick together. And then we radicalize the young people with a whole lot of Marxist indoctrination and a whole lot of sexual deviancy nonsense to tell them they don't want social justice for you because you're LGBTQ. And we want you to be LGBTQ and we want to have justice for you. You cobble all that together and it's what they called and still call a new American majority. And they agreed that if we can do this, we can take Georgia. Well, guess what, folks? They just took it. But it didn't happen overnight. I mean, you've now got in Georgia, a demon crack governor and two demon crack senators. And look, we're not talking about moderate Democrats. I mean, Raphael Warnock, I call him Warnock is about as far left wing as you get. I mean, he might as well be a member of the Democratic Socialists of America because this This is the guy who says that he thinks it's important to teach Christians, uh, call marks teachings that they'll be better off when they when they when they study call marks in the communist manifesto. I kid you not folks. He said so in his book, I read it.

  12. 23:05

    Now you read the whole book, but I mean, I read that passage in the book and you got John also running around talking to president is wicked and he's delusional. the Democrat Party? Well, look, so I'm angry about this because I've been trying to get Republicans to understand you better invest in breaking the back of this coalition because the demon-crat party depends upon winning somewhere between 85 and 95 percent of the black vote in order to be intellectually successful in states where you've got a significant black population and by significant, I mean generally 25% and more. I think George is about 33%. And that's why they've taken Georgia. Virginia is 20%. And it certainly helped them to take Virginia because Abigail Spinnberger, who just became governor, got 93% of the black vote. 93%. So Mr. Jackson, why don't you do something about that? Well, that's a good question. Somebody wants to give me the $25, $50, $100 million to work on this. I guarantee you I can solve this problem. I guarantee I can solve it. But you know, while these billionaires are pouring money into people like Stacey Abrams, these other knuckleheads and the rest of us are running around scrambling, trying to raise $25,000, $50,000, $100,000. What do you expect the outcome to be? I mean, it's ridiculous. We need to wake up. When I say we, I mean, these Republicans need to wake up because you see they don't take this approach. We are trying to save our country. You know what their approach is? We're the no blessable age who have to rule over the rabble and you know we're not interested in doing anything significant but we just want to preside over whatever's happening.

  13. 25:06

    I mean that's really the mentality because if they really believe that America is under existential threat by these Marxists and socialists and sexual deviance, they would take action to protect this country from them, but they don't. Here's the final thought. When we come back from the break, I want to take your calls, numbers 888-589-8840, and I want to get your take on why you think this has happened. And I look, I'm not suggesting I'm covering all the factors, but I'm certainly covering a couple of very important ones. Here's the other thing. You know who's celebrating in addition to the demon-crat party? You know who else is celebrating? Communist China is celebrating? Oh yeah, Xi Jinping said this is great. This is great. You know what he said? He said this just goes to prove that Americans are getting tired of democracy. You know what that tells me? That tells me he knows that the Democrat party doesn't care about any democracy. They care about ruling the same way he does. That's why they got to hold the California. What do you got? They got to hold the Villanoy. What do you got? One party rule. They got to hold the Massachusetts. What do you got? One party rule Vermont? What do you got? One party rule. Now you got Maine, one party rule everywhere they get their clutches everywhere they get their their their their talents into the body politic. They want to turn it into a one party system where they cannot be challenged in the madness that they would impose upon the people. Know who else is celebrating? The Iranian regime. They're celebrating. I mean, the biggest exporter of terrorism in the world is celebrating the fact that Democrats got elected because they know Democrats will let them pretty much do whatever they want to do, including get a nuclear weapon.

  14. 27:07

    Because they're too busy trying to get power in America to care about the long-term safety and security of the American people, because that's not their primary interest, if it's in interest at all. Their interest isn't getting power. And they'll do that by any means necessary. That's sort of a communist doctrine, a principle. So they are celebrating. You know what I was celebrating? The Muslim Brotherhood. They're head of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. I said, this is a wonderful thing that's happened in America. Not only have the demon crats taken over, but look, they've just elected, I forget whether eight or nine, but they've elected nine Muslims in this cycle, including re-electing Ilhan Omar, whatever her real name is, Abdul-Rakhman El-Sayed. We've got, in Virginia now, a Muslim-Lieutenant Governor, and there have been a number of others who have been elected around the country. And as I've said, Ilhan Omar, if you have a chance to check out my podcast, which posted this morning on aFR.net, but Ilhan Omar said, it's no longer inshallah, which means, I guess, God's will be done. But there's another long Arabic word that means praise Allah, because now in their view, Allah's will has been done and Muslims have won in their elections around America. Now does that sound like somebody celebrating America's interests or somebody celebrating the interests of Islam? And yet this is what the demon kratz are bringing us. I don't know whether you heard about this but Italian California has just legalized throughples which I guess is three people and quadruples which is four people in what they call a domestic partnerships.

  15. 29:20

    I mean, they're ultimately moving toward making those things, that those abominations, marriages, that's what they want. I think Cambridge, Massachusetts has the same thing. This weirdness is what they want for America. This is the direction which they're leading us. And having taken Texas, having taken Georgia, having taken South Carolina, I mean, these bastions, what were once bastions of conservatism? We got a problem, folks. We got a problem. And the Republican establishment is not going to solve it because they don't even know what the problem is. See, they are trying to win elections. Democrats are trying to take the country over. That is a major distinction. We're trying to keep Americans free. They're trying to get power to control Americans. And I don't think the Republican establishment even understands that. I really don't. You do. I do. Many of us understand it, but I don't think they do. And this whole notion, sadly, that even some Republicans and conservatives have, well, you know, I'm not happy with the economy and gas prices are too high. And I'm going to give the other guys a chance and see whether gas prices come down. If you vote, if you vote your economic interests over the spiritual and cultural and moral realities that we are confronted with, you're going to end up impoverished both economically and culturally. In other words, you're not going to get either one in the long term, because these people are not. These people don't know anything about what it takes to make the American economy work. I believe that we are about to see one of the biggest booms in the history of this nation with all this new investment in our country.

  16. 31:22

    I really believe that when we get this whole Iran situation settled and oil prices come down and all this investment starts to wash through the economy. All of these new plants being built that President Trump through these tariffs that everybody's saying that people are, they take the tariffs, cause their prices to increase. We got a 3.3% growth rate that we've had just in the last quarter. And I think it's even been better than that in prior quarters. I mean, we are, look, I pay high gas prices to folks. I don't enjoy that. But I look at the long term interests of our economy and I see nothing but good days ahead unless we allow the Democrat party to destroy it. And if it's left to the Republican establishment, that's exactly what will happen. I think it's up to you and me, with the help of the Lord to save this country. 888 589 884 0 is the number.

The Hamilton Quarter podcast and one-bitted common terrors are available at aFR.net back to the Hamilton Quarter on American Family Radio. This is Bishop E.W. Jackson and for Abraham Hamilton the third. Listen folks I've talked to you about the truth tour facts about American history you were never taught. Well, our social media people took a speech that I gave about that and where I pointed out that only 5% even of Southerners actually own slaves if you only count the patriarchs the heads of families only 5% actually own slaves They put that out there on social media and up to it has gotten to I think about 1.3 million hits it is gone viral Because people just, I guess they're thinking, I didn't know that because of course the lie that's told is that America's just steeped in slavery and everybody owns slaves and everybody was a racist and everybody owns, I mean, so folks, if you want me to do the truth tour in your area for your church, I'd be happy to come and share some of these facts about American history that are going viral on social media. Just get in touch with us at truthtouratstandinc.net. that's truthtoratstanding.net Or you can call us at 757-375-6444. That's 757-375-6444. 888-589840 is the number. That's 888-588840. We got a lot of calls coming in. So let's get to them, shall we? Let's go to Jerry in Texas. Jerry, welcome. Hi, hey Bishop Jackson, thank you so much for all your biblical commentary. I so appreciate that you go back to the Bible, both you and Abe. So I got a question. If we look at all this through the Bible lands, we know what the final plan is. God's got a plan, there's going to be some wrath poured out, some judgment poured out on people, and we don't see America really listed in Revelation, so we know something's got to happen to us. We just heard that they're going to withdraw negotiations and funding for Israel, and we know that in Ezekiel Israel's going to be hung out to dry and they're not going to have a single supporter, including United States. You know, France is on fire and we could become France and be looking for the Mr. Fix it who's going to solve the world's problems. Aren't everything just falling into place right now? The way Jan Markel says that a lot of this stuff is just ultimately part of God's plan and we just have to decide when it's going to happen as because it is going to happen. What say you?

  18. 36:20

    All right, Jerry, thank you for the call and thank you for the question. I would say this. We're not in the great tribulation yet. And we are in the great tribulation. If those of you who believe in the rapture, I believe we're going to be raptured out of here. And I believe that until that happens, we have a responsibility to do what Jesus said, occupy, do business until He comes. To be found faithfully representing Him until He comes. And that to me is in every area of life. So, that is, none of that moves me in any way. Yeah. I know what the outcome is. with the Bible teaches. But again, I mean, when it's ultimately out of our hands, after we're captured out of here and until then, I really believe that we've got to pray, like everything depends upon God and then work, like everything depends upon us. Let's go to Susan in my home state of Virginia. Susan, welcome. Bishop, hi, this is Susan. If a couple of things, if you don't mind, one is I agree with you about the Congressional Republicans Senate and representatives. So we have sat on the important issues for a long time. I don't think we'll be in this situation that we're in now, and I'm going back 20, 30 years, especially with the deficit and other issues if they have really been concerned about doing their job. And I've also heard it positive by political analysts that they really don't want to be in charge, that they'd much rather be in the minority so than they can complain. And it sounds credible. And the other item is I've heard a lot of the discussions about do we have to seat these Islamists into Congress? Because if they especially stay square on the Koran, that's hypothetical to the Constitution. And I'll take your answer offline. All right, Susan. Thank you very much. I'd appreciate the call. I'll tell you that, you know, the idea that Republicans would prefer to be in the minority is credible based upon the way they behave themselves.

  19. 38:30

    I think the only thing that militates against that is that they like power. And I think they rather have it than not have it. But you're right, it certainly gives them an out so they can say, well, there's nothing we could do. But I also agree with you. I think we're in this position in part because they've abdicated their political responsibility And I think I'll tell you I have a lot of admiration for Governor DeSantis because I believe he did what I've seen Republican governors fail to do he actually built out a Republican and conservative Infrastructure in Florida To help them withstand this kind of onslaught by the Democrats and so Florida fared very well now notice it was close He said we felt the pressure too But we had already laid some groundwork so that we didn't get swept away by the tsunami of this leftist wave. So yeah, Susan, I would just say that we've got to pray and keep working and raise up some real leaders. President Trump is a leader. Whatever you might say about him, he's a leader. And by the way, I hoped our relationship with Israel doesn't change. But he is a real leader and and most people in politics aren't their bellwethers who to figure out which way the wind is blowing and then try to run with it. Okay, let's go to Chris also in Texas Chris welcome Chris you there. Okay, not hearing Chris. Hello. Oh, there you go. Chris, you're there. All right. Yeah. Yes. Did you hear me? I can hear you Chris. Go right ahead. In Romans 31 it says, there's no power with God and the power that we have ordained by God.

    So God allowed the Democrats to be elected. And I have a strong feeling that this is God's judgment on the United States. All right, Chris. Thank you very much for the call, my friend. I would say I respectfully disagree. I think that's a wrong reading of that text, by the way, because it doesn't say power. It says authority. There is no authority. That's the Greek word exosia. authority is not referring to particular individuals who might be in power at any given moment. It's just saying that authority, societal authority is established by God so that there can be order. But Hosea 8.4 says, you set up kings but not by me. You establish princes but I do not acknowledge them. So God is saying, just because there's authority doesn't mean that the people in authority are people I put there. Proverbs 29, 2 says, when the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice, when the wicked rule, the people mourn. That means there are times when the people are mourning because the wicked are ruling. It doesn't say that's the will of God. It was a forward imply that that's what the people themselves have chosen. And so I would say the problem is here is not God. The problem is the people who went out and voted for these idiots who got elected uh... but thank you for the call my friend let's go to jonie in arkansas jonie welcome you all made out of khanarkin saw it's a thing to you earlier and you were talking about uh... african-american community in the democratic party and thought about this i have a dear friend he's black she is a woman in her 70s she's very educated she is a godly woman i met in Bible study and I love her to death but we've talked politics a little bit and she's a staunch Democrat and she boasts Democrats period and I asked her I said you know as a Christian so this is really for the Christian community and the Democrats platform on abortion and transgender and homosexuality in the open borders that leads to sex trafficking, human trafficking.

  21. 43:29

    How, as a Christian, can you vote as a Democrat? I don't understand that. And the Democrats have African-American vote tied up so much. So I don't get it. I don't understand it. I thought maybe you could shed some light on that for me. Yeah, well, I thought you were gonna say, did you ask your friend that question? I did and she didn't have an answer. Yeah. She did send her mama who was an educator do with guys who voted any other way of the Democrat. Oh my goodness gracious. Well, you know, thank you for the call, Jonny. I would say this folks. Let's see. We still got some time for some more phone calls. We got some open lines 888-589-8840. I would say this, regardless of what a person says about being a Christian, I would say when you have a priority that is higher than your loyalty to Jesus. A, I would question whether you're really a Christian, or whether you're a person who has absorbed all the sort of cultural markers of being a Christian, but when it comes right down to your decision making, your decision making really is godless and secular. You can praise the Lord. Hallelujah, I go to church. That's all well and good, but I mean, real question is where the rubber meets the road, isn't it? The real question is how do you make your decisions? What drives you? And here's the second thing I'd say. You know, I think the church has done a terrible job in general, not every church, but the church at large, of making disciples. Jesus said, if you abide in my word, if you live in it, if you are immersed in it, if it governs your thinking, then are you my disciples indeed? I think we got a lot of church going pew-sitting, so-called Christians who are not at all disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ. Let's go to David in Mississippi. David, welcome. Hi, Bishop Jackson. Thank you for all that you do. I really enjoy when you host Abraham's show. And I just wanted to make a comment about some of the things that I don't think that President Trump or the Republicans articulated very well.

  22. 45:39

    One, part of our energy costs or fuel costs going up was all tied to the new green deal, that was the green new deal that was out there. And shutting down, drilling for all. And refineries? This is articulated what we were doing with regard to increasing refining capacity and things like that so that we can have more fuel. That would have been great. Also, our health care costs have gone up because of democratic, the Affordable Care Act has not been affordable. Everything's been cost shifted over to other people. And lastly, OK, quickly, David, because I'm running out of time. OK, all right. Well, you just go. You you understand what I'm saying. I got you. I got thank you for the call, David. Yeah. And look, you're absolutely right. We ought to call it the unaffordable care act. Let's try to get these other calls in. Let's go to Ernest in Florida, Florida, held the line. Welcome, Ernest. Hey, how you doing, sir? I want to say very quickly, when you mention $100 million that gets up and done, I disagree. Because when Peter said Silver and Gold, I have none. But what I do have, I give you the name of Jesus Christ. We fall in short in the measure of Christ. Number one, number two, we need to bring the Jews to heal, not just H E E L but A T A L because what aggravates me is 57 to 60 percent of Jews voted for El Sahid in Michigan. This lost Jewish mindset has to be addressed and we can't just keep blindly supporting Israel. We got to stop. We got to. Well, okay I appreciate the call but we don't blindly support Israel. We biblically support Israel and therein lies the difference my friend.

  23. 47:44

    Okay Michael you get to say the final word here other than me and you are in Ohio welcome. Thank you very much Chris. How the Republican Party fuels the anti-Trump media, anti-Christ media. I mean we've given them millions and millions of dollars. Doesn't that seem convoluted to you? Yeah well there are a lot of things about with the Republican Party does that seem convoluted to me. And I think that's in part why we are where we are. And I really think that therefore it's going to fall to Christians to really save this country. I'm a Republican, but I'll tell you what, I don't have any confidence that the Republican establishment is going to do it. It's going to take Christians believing God and getting fully involved in the process. Thank you so much for the call, Michael. Well, folks, that's going to do it for today. Always great to sit in for Abraham Hamilton, III. God bless each and every one of you and you know what to do. I don't care what any election may produce, stand up, step up, speak up, refuse to back up because we cannot be defeated if we will not quit because we are on God's side.
