Should We Support Our Local Police Forces and Keep Them Independent?
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
WHY SHOUDN’T WE FEAR, DESPISE, AND DEFUND THEM AS THE ENEMIES OF OUR REPUBLIC DEMAND?
Sixty-one years ago, in 1963, Americans began to hear the first beginnings of the clarion call that has become a crescendo of common sense and needful action if our constitutional freedoms are to be maintained: “SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL POLICE, AND KEEP THEM INDEPENDENT”! The man responsible for formulating this concept in the long list of freedom-preserving “actions” was the late and great patriot, Robert Welch, Founder, in 1958, of one of the oldest and most effective organizations dedicated to the proposition that the Constitutional Liberties and Safeguards formulated by our Founding Generation were not up for grabs and were not to be negotiated away upon the altar of “world government”. That organization is THE JOHN BIRCH SOCIETY, named after a young missionary to China who also was a Captain in the U.S. Army Air Force, who served under the famous “Flying Tigers” General, Claire Chennault, and who was murdered in China by Satan’s communist cadres in August of 1945.

If You Told Me That “Inflation” Is The Rising Prices Of Goods And Services You’d Be WRONG!
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
You might say to me, after reading the above title: “What do you mean? Everyone knows that “inflation” is the general, and often quite rapid, rise in the costs we pay for goods and services.” Right? “A harsh reality of our economy for many decades.” Right? Sorry, but if you spread that “wrongthink”, which most of us have been taught our entire lives, you’ll be spreadingmisinformation!You’d be parroting deliberate lies and error from centers of obfuscation and deceit like The New York Times, The Washington Post, our sundry “alphabet” TV networks and cable “news” stations, with their disinformation-celebrating ‘talking heads”, most “social media” sites, and“our” U.S. Government! And for sure from those “Institutes of Induced Ignorance” known as “government schools.”

Remembering “Because” – 1902
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
Those of you who have followed my “literary efforts”, both in the now extinct print version of The Times Examiner (from 1999 to July of 2018), and in the current digital version (since July of 2018), know that I’m somewhat of an “eclectic” writer. In addition to doing what I can in defending our embattled constitutional Republic, I have different interests and I enjoy writing about some of them and sharing them with you from time to time. In that regard I consider myself to be something of a “renaissance” person, one who enjoys delving into different facets of history and the human experience, into mankind’s political and social foibles and noble accomplishments, into the artistic and cultural achievements of my fellow human beings who, during their sometimes far-too-brief pilgrimage through life, brought beauty, joy, great art and music, memorable literature, and various forms of greatly needed cultural enrichment to us, their fellow pilgrims, all of which have instilled joy and happiness and even the tears of pathos into our lives as we beheld their artistries and their struggled-for accomplishments, often despite their physical and cultural challenges.

The Wonderful Gift of Freedom – Is It Dissipating In Front of Our Eyes? – Part 2
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
Back in 1899, at the start of the Boer War (in South Africa), in an essay titled, “The Old Issue”, Rudyard Kipling wrote, “All we have of freedom—all we use or know—this our fathers bought for us, long and long ago”. At that time, the British Empire and its influence (for good or ill) extended over much of the world. British “freedom”—at least as defined by Parliament and the English Monarchy—prevailed over most of its polyglot peoples, with or without their approval.

The Wonderful Gift of Freedom – Is It Dissipating In Front of Our Eyes? – Pt. 1
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
God’s Word tells us, in Joel 1:3: “Tell it to your children, and let your children tell it to their children, and their children to the next generation.” This is still excellent advice for Americans today in regards to the topic of ‘freedom’, because if any group of people is in danger of losing the liberties bequeathed to them by their Fore Parents, it is the people of the U.S. It is US! The Founders of the United States were a pretty wise collection of men (aided and encouraged by a wise collection of their wives and mothers, I’m certain). By declaring “Independence” from Mother England they knew they would be considered as traitors to their King and would suffer the consequences should the King’s men catch them. Benjamin Franklin reminded his countrymen (and especially US) that, “Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.” Franklin’s wisdom is doubly true today.

Fathers & Sons Are Not Always Alike
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
“Like father, like son”. We’ve all heard this saying in the past, I’m sure. In the normal scheme of things those words are often true but sometimes they miss the mark totally. I, for one, am nothing like my father was—not as a teen or an adult. Despite his being an every weekend abuser of alcohol for all of my growing up years, my father always earned enough to keep me and my mother, and later my younger sister, well cared for. Adopted by a family as an infant in 1894, he was an unloving and “distant” parent, an atheist who never learned how to communicate with me or ever express love for his family. My mother was always my stay-at-home Mom, providing the love and attention so lacking in my father toward all of us. Mom wasn’t particularly religious for most of her life (until her “mature” years), and neither of my parents did much to “train me up in the way I should go”. It was my elderly step-grandmother Elizabeth, (who with her husband had adopted my abandoned father as a baby in 1894), who did her best to instill her Christian faith and values into me over the thirteen years I knew her, with only limited success at the time. But that’s another story.

Remembering Your Kind of September
- By W.H. Lamb

One advantage of attaining the status of “senior citizen” (or “old geezer” as some describe us) is that we’ve stored a whole lot of history in that remarkable computer tucked away inside our skulls. Some of us seem to lose the ability to accurately retrieve our “memory files” as we age, but I’ve been blessed with a still fairly intact memory that goes back pretty far (I’ve traded good memory at age 87 for lots of back, leg, and shoulder pain, and a bit of heart trouble (AFib), pacemaker and Watchman heart implants, and chronic kidney disease, and my first experience with “gout” recently, but I consider that to be an acceptable trade off as long as my brain’s “memory files” continue to work).

Has the Christian Church Become “Woke” And a “Tower of Babel”?
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
A SERMON:
GENESIS 11:1-9—NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION:
(Amplification in parentheses mine—whl)
“(1) Now the whole world had one language (after the flood of Noah’s time) and a common speech. (2) As people moved eastward (from the Mountains--a mountain ‘range’, NOT one mountain) of Ararat (that mountain in the modern nation of Turkey is NOT the grounding spot of Noah’s Ark) they found a plain in Shinar (in Babylonia, i.e. Mesopotamia, or present-day Iraq) and settled there. (3) They said to each other, ‘Come, let’s make bricks and bake them thoroughly’. They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar. (4) Then they said, ‘Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves and not be scattered over the face of the whole earth’. (5) But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower (that became known as The Tower of Babel) that the men were building. (6) The LORD said, ‘If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. (7) Come, let us (i.e. The Triune God) go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other’. (8) So the LORD scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city (for they had disobeyed God’s command to ‘be fruitful and multiply and replenish the whole earth to the extent they were able at that time—rather than all of them staying on the ‘Plain of Shinar’, which they had done). (9) That is why it was called Babel (in Hebrew the word means ‘confused’)—because there the LORD scattered them over the face of the whole earth.”

“Democracy gives every man the right to be his own oppressor!” - James Russell Lowell
“The world is weary of statesmen whom democracy has degraded into politicians”
Benjamin Disraeli, speech before a joint session of the U.S. Congress in 1935.
“The adoption of Democracy as a form of Government by all European nations is fatal to good Government, to liberty, to law and order, to respect for authority, and to religion, and must eventually produce a STATE OF CHAOS from which a new world tyranny will arise.” - The Duke of Northumberland, England, 1931

THE GENESIS OF THE HYMN: “AMERICA”, A.K.A. “MY COUNTRY ‘TIS OF THEE”.
“My country ‘tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing. Land where my fathers died!
Land of the Pilgrim’s pride! From every mountain side,
Let freedom ring!
My native country, thee, Land of the noble free,
Thy name I love. I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills, My heart with rapture fills

James Patterson’s Journal—The Story of The Congregation of Andria Church During the Dark Time (Patterson’s Tale #6)
“By this time Pastor Lee was not only our spiritual leader but was the militia leader to the Jesus Sect community, not only in Andria but in villages up and down the Tomak river for many miles. He had his personal fortified compound deep in the forest, many miles inland from the river. Only a few people knew how to find it, and none of our JS members had ever been to his fortified home. He had a fanatically devoted group of around 80 militiamen who protected us, and him. We knew that only about half of them were true JS followers, but all of them despised the Enforcers and Overmasters. They also did their best to protect the Jesus followers from the pagan villagers, and it was not uncommon for those evil mockers and harassers to themselves be brought to justice by our militia. Whippings were the most common punishments for their first offense against us, but severe beatings and executions were not unknown either. Right or wrong, we had concluded that, in order to survive, we could not always “turn the other cheek” without some form of resistance.

RACHARD LEE BECOMES PASTOR OF ANDRIA CHURCH
“During this time we elected Rachard Lee as our new pastor. He had a very old God’s Bible that he showed to all of us one dark Sabbath night. We had only fatwax candles to see by, but he showed us the page at its front where it said it had been printed in someplace called ‘Atlanta, Georgia’ back in A.D. 2142, which he told us was just before the start of the time when people on our continent all began to fight each other. Lee told us that night that no one knew how long these wars had been going on, but that he believed that it had been for a period of hundreds of years. He said that his old Bible had been authorized by a new king named James, who had probably lived before the start of the wars that had ripped apart our continent and its people.

“America Was A Nation Founded Upon Christ And His Word!” True or False? - Part 3
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
In the first two parts of this series we delved into the historical insights and proofs discussed in Sam Kastensmidt’s very detailed small book, Ten Truths About America’s Christian Heritage, published by D.JAMES KENNEDY Ministries in 2008. I’ve learned a lot about our early American history from this author, and about the depth of commitment to their Christian faith that so many of our American ancestors exhibited, a commitment that seems to be fading away in this day and age. These first two articles in this series covered, in some detail, the first six of this author’s “Ten Truths About America’s ChristianHeritage”. This final article will deal, in lesser detail, with the final four historical “truths” that, I trust, will totally validate his contention that, indeed, our nation was founded on Christian principles that can be seen in so many places and in so many historical documents.

“America Was A Nation Founded Upon Christ And His Word!” True or False? - PART 2
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
Last time we began with a statement by the late Rev. D. James Kennedy, wherein he claimed that: “If we know our history, we know that America was a nation founded upon Christ and His Word.” But was it truly founded upon God’s Word, or have we all been deceived over the centuries into believing what the anti-God scoffers claim to be fact—that men who were “mostly Deists” originally founded America as a “secular nation”? It is my personal contention that these “secularism uber alles” people are totally incorrect. I’ve been offering, as a strong rebuttal, a small book I got from D. James Kennedy Ministries years ago, titled: Ten Truths About America’s Christian Heritage, written by Sam Kastensmidt (published in 2008 by DJK Ministries).

“America Was A Nation Founded Upon Christ And His Word”! True or False? - PART 1
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
“All nations that have ever existed have been founded upon some theistic or anti-theistic principle. If we know our history, we know that America was a nation founded upon Christ and His Word.” - Rev. D. James Kennedy (from a sermon at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida).
So said one of my true heroes of the faith, the Christian patriot, Rev. D. James Kennedy (1930-2007). I’ve always believed this to be true, and at one time the majority of Americans also believed it. Not too many years ago (2007) it was reported by the First Amendment Center that “65% of Americans believed that the nation’s Founders intended the U.S. to be a Christian nation”, and that “55% of Americans believed that the U.S. Constitution established a Christian nation.” I suspect that those percentages are lower today. Were these Americans seventeen years ago correct in their assumptions, or had they been misled by centuries of misinformation? Some groups among us, groups with questionable and suspicious and anti-Christian agendas, believe that to be so. Or they want you to believe their deliberate disinformation.

Will You Be An “Ant” Or A “Grasshopper” This November 5th?
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
“Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise.” - (Proverbs 6:6 N.I.V.)
I’ve written and published a couple of versions of this tale over the years, but considering the possible “existential importance” of the soon-to-be-upon us November 5, 2024 presidential election, with the possibility for “cheating” AGAIN by the slithery Demoncrats a mounting concern, a re-examination of the ‘moral’ of this hoary tale is in order. The original “story” is quite ancient, and probably goes back to the Greek poet, Aesop (ca.620 B.C.—ca.560 B.C.). It has been republished and “modernized” over the centuries by various writers. A version of this tale was sent to me several years ago without attribution, but from my research it appears to have originated in a very abbreviated form on The Federalist Papers.org, website, in an article by Steve Straub back in 2015. I’ve amplified it to a great extent and changed it somewhat to reflect our current “dilemma” caused by “theusual suspects” of despicable anti-American Demoncrats, cowardly RINOS, Republicrat Neo-Cons, and verminous leftist Marxists who are infesting our nation, but the message of the tale remains the same.
