Wild Hogs & Frogs—Remembering Tom Anderson, Patriot Extraordinaire
- Details
- By W.H. Lamb
Ah yes, I remember him well! Tom Anderson, that is. Who, you may ask, was Thomas Jefferson Anderson (1910-2002)? Around fifty-six years ago I attended a meeting of The American Party in Lancaster, S.C. The speaker, Tom Anderson, was a man who had the reputation of being a “straight talker”. That reputation was well earned over his long life of 91 years, and from his birth in Nashville, Tennessee in 1910, including years of serving God and Country, he always strove to honor the spirit of our nation’s Founders. That long-ago talk of his that I attended included two of his favorite stories and although he was not their author, he used both of these stories constantly to hammer home his points that Americans were swiftly losing their freedoms because we were being “conned” into accepting “free stuff” that was leading to the loss of our Constitutional liberties. Let me recount both of those stories for you.
Background Briefing on Iran

War between Israel and Iran is Underway
World War III in the Making?
On Friday, June 13, Israeli F-35 stealth bombers attacked Iranian nuclear facilities and military sites. Simultaneously, Israeli intelligence agents within Iran assassinated many top military officials and nuclear scientists. About 70 Iranians were killed and another 350 wounded. The purpose of this attack was to prevent Iranian development of nuclear weapons. The radical Islamic leaders of Iran have frequently threatened to annihilate Israel. They consider both Israel and the United States satanic enemies of Iran and Islam. Islamic enmity and exhortation to annihilate Jews is embedded in Islam’s most holy foundational documents—the Quran and the teachings and traditions of Muhammad (Sunna). Hence Iranian development of nuclear weapons has always been an existential threat to Israel. The level to which Iran developed uranium enrichment even for peaceful use has therefore always been an existential concern to Israel. Immediately prior to the attack, Iran was engaged with the U.S. Trump Administration in negotiating limits on uranium enrichment. The degree of nuclear enrichment and immediate intentions of Iran were uncertain during those negotiations. The Israelis totally opposed any Uranium enrichment for Iran.
Freedom Will Never Be Free

- By W.H. Lamb
As Americans we all should know that the cost of maintaining our freedoms—the liberties for which untold numbers of Americans have given their “last full measure of devotion” to defend--is always high and likely to get even more costly in the years ahead, as the powerful forces of collectivist tyranny clash, verbally and increasingly violently, with the forces of American Patriots determined to RESIST the diabolical agendas of those Marxist/collectivist devils (and their Democrat sycophants and co-conspirators) who are determined that they will prevail over us.
To begin, I’d like to share a touching poem written in 1981 by Kelly Strong:
Only one Interpretation of Genesis 1 is the Biblical Perspective on Origins
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
There are 10 primary interpretations of Genesis chapter 1, however only one represents a true Biblical perspective on origins. This is because it is the only perspective that starts with the Bible and interprets the chapter based on what it actually says rather than trying to read anything into it. It is also the only one that is fully consistent with the rest of scripture including the rationale of Jesus dying on the cross in payment for our sin.
In this article we will look at all 10 perspectives pointing out the benefits and problems with each of them. We will conclude with pointing out which one is not only the most Biblical, but the only one that can be truly considered to be Biblical in nature,
Sharpening the Truth of Amazing Grace

Sixteen Scriptural Passages of Concise Theology
“Amazing Grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now I am found;
Was blind, but now I see.”
Amazing Grace is undoubtedly the most popular hymn in America and arguably one of the most popular hymns worldwide. It was written in 1772 by John Newton, an ordained Anglican minister in England, who had previously been captain of a British ship involved in the brutal slave trade. Along with British Parliament Member William Wilberforce, he worked to outlaw British slave trading, which was accomplished in 1807, nine months before Newton’s death.
So with the goal of providing a concise Scriptural understanding of salvation by Grace—and Grace Alone—I have chosen 16 Scriptural passages to sharpen our understanding of this enormously important truth.
Marie Dorion Really Had “True Grit”!
- Details
- By W.H. Lamb
(I’m indebted to an article in the November/December 2018 Daughters of the American Revolution magazine, American Spirit, entitled: “On The Oregon Trail”, by Bill Hudgins, for first bringing to my attention the now almost forgotten American hero, Marie Aioe Dorion (ca. 1786-1850), and from which article I quote and paraphrase freely. Other sources from which I quote somewhat freely will be listed at the end of this article.)
This unique 64 or 65-year-old woman was buried beneath the altar inside the old wood-logged Roman Catholic church in St. Louis, Oregon on Sept. 6, 1850. This was undoubtedly a great honor at the time. Marie Aioe Dorion Venier Toupin (as she is identified by Wikipedia), was known in her latter years by her fellow settlers in the Willamette Valley in Oregon as “Madame Dorion”, and it was said that “she was looked up to and revered as an extraordinary woman, the oldest in the neighborhood, kindly, patient and devout”. Those “extraordinary” accomplishments of Marie Dorion were well known to many Americans of the 19th century, but except for a few history buffs, her name is virtually unknown today in the country that she helped open to the vast migration from east to west that occurred during most of the 19th century. Prior to the Hudgins article, I had never heard of her.
Christian Foreign Policy and George Washington as Philosopher
- Details
- By Winston McCuen - South Carolina
"First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen." That is how one of George Washington's famous lieutenants, Henry "Light-Horse Harry" Lee, the father of Robert E. Lee, aptly and poetically described Washington -- the great Southerner, the great Virginian, the great Christian man and master of Mount Vernon. Above all, Washington was the great American soldier and statesman who, with others, secured the political independence of the American States upon their secession from the British Empire.
Since his death in 1799, much has been written on George Washington (1732-1799). But still, over two centuries after his passing, no writer has fully captured by description the whole man in his spirit and genius. And this is so because of the native power of the man himself and the wide diversity of his gifts, combined with the relative narrowness of focus of modern historians. Writers have understandably focused on Washington's remarkable and exciting military and political careers. In the process though, they have neglected Washington the intellect and thinker.
