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
Like that above.

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.

James Patterson’s Journal—The Story of Congregation of Andria Church During Dark Time (Patterson’s Tale #4)
JAMES PATTERSON MARRIES LEAH LEE, AND DISCOVERS THAT HER FATHER, COL. RACHARD LEE, WAS A POWERFUL LEADER IN A MILITIA GROUP.
“I did marry Leah the following year, praise God! I eventually learned that her father was a powerful clan leader who had been betrayed by some of his own followers in Fillyelfia who were bribed by a group of the local Overmasters to say that Rachard Lee was plotting a rebellion against them and against the 2 local Council members. Lee had been totally loyal to them, but he had made many enemies over the years as he resisted the demands of the Overmasters to support them in everything they wanted to do to further enslave the people of that district, and this he became unwilling to do. He and his followers resisted the overt power grab by the paid henchmen of the Council members, and for almost 10 years there was a standoff between Rachard Lee and his people and the forces of the Overmasters, who were willing puppets of their Council rulers.

BLESSINGS AND CHALLENGES BEFALL THE JESUS FOLLOWERS.
“As I said earlier, for about 20 years or so we lived mostly in peace with those in Andria village, even though we knew that as Jesus followers we were hated and despised by a sizeable number of its people, and including the hateful and violent Enforcers who poured their venom on us from time to time. We did our best to pray for these pagans, and we tried to be friendly with them in many ways, with mixed results. We tried to obey our Savior’s command to love those who deceitfully used us—we did our best to love our neighbors as we loved ourselves. We never stopped praying for the pagans and the government Enforcers and Overmasters who were abusing us, even though all we got in return was their ridicule, cursing, and persecution in varying degrees. We didn’t seem to have much success over the years in these spiritual dealings with the pagans, but we never stopped trying to share the good news of Jesus God’s birth, life, death, and resurrection with them. A few of them responded favorably over the years, but most just ridiculed us and continued in their lustful and drunken and often violent pagan ways.

FREEDOM’S LAST BEST HOPE
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
The first two lines of James Lowell’s (1819-1891) epic 1845 poem, “The Present Crisis”, remind us that: “When a deed is done for Freedom, through the broad earth’s aching breast, Runs a thrill of joy prophetic, trembling on from east to west.”
Various people throughout the world may have a different perception of “freedom” -- i.e. what it means to them--how they define it. The Oxford Dictionary lists what I consider to be pertinent definitions:
- The power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants;
- The absence of subjection to foreign domination or despotic government;
- The power of self-determination attributed to the will; the quality of being independent of fate or necessity.

“Plead my cause, O Lord, with them that strive with me; Fight against them who fight against me. Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help. Draw out also the spear, And stop the way against them that persecute me. Say to my soul, ‘I am thy salvation.’ Let those be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul. Let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt. Let them be as chaff before the wind. And let the angel of the LORD chase them…” - Psalm 35:1-5 AKJV

The Democrat Party-An Enemy of Our Freedom and Our Constitution!
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
Now why would I accuse our “old time” Democrat Party of being an enemy of our freedoms and our Constitution? Am I being unfair? Judgmental? Un-American? Or am I being TRUTHFUL? Let’s delve into the somewhat sordid and tarnished history of that “D” party and examine its record since its founding in the late 1820’s, when it supported Andrew Jackson for President .
Isn’t this the sameold Democrat Party of our fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers? Yes, pretty much. Isn’t this the same Democrat Party that fought AGAINST women’s right to vote from 1878 through 1919, and even opposed the Women’s SuffrageAmendment (19th Amendment) in 1920 until “Kaiser WoodrowWilson”, as he was mockingly called by most Americans of that time--the racist Democrat POTUS-- finally saw the handwriting on the wall and decided to bow to Republican pressure and endorse women’s suffrage? Yes, it is the same anti-constitution Democrat Party.

The 1774 “Peggy Stewart” Tea Party in Annapolis, Maryland
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
Back in 1988, during one of our trips to Boston and vicinity, my wife and I went aboard the sailing brig, “Beaver”, a recreated ship of the type used back in the 1770’s. It was moored close to the site, in Boston Harbor, where the original “Boston Tea Party” was “held” back in 1773, during which The Sons of Liberty and their friends, dressed unconvincingly as “Indians”, dumped many chests of expensive, but “boycotted” tea, into the harbor. It must have been quite a sight, and it thoroughly incensed the British colonial government. On the recreated Beaver, there were several small chests of “pretend tea”, roped to the deck rail. My wife and I, and our daughter and her husband, thoroughly enjoyed our own version of “The Boston Tea Party”, as we threw those pretend tea chests into the harbor (several times, as I recall). It was a treat to “relive” history, and it was “liberating” to follow, if only figuratively, in the footsteps of patriots from an earlier time.

America Is Under Siege

WE ARE FACING OUR OWN “LINE IN THE DIRT” RIGHT NOW! WHAT WILL YOU DO?
We all know the facts and/or the legend of “The Siege of the Alamo” in San Antonio, Texas in late February and early March of 1836. A pitifully small number of Texans (or “Texians”) and American volunteers (about 180 men, plus a few women and children) determined to defend an old mission church called the “Alamo” that they had previously captured from its small Mexican garrison, fortified it, and eventually resisted a vastly superior enemy force—the Mexican Army of at least 1400 soldiers, under General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna (1794-1876) thereby enshrining the term: “13 days of glory”, into our American lexicon. The Commander of the Alamo’s defenders, young Lt. Colonel William Travis (1809-1836), age 26, realizing that his situation by early March, 1836 was virtually hopeless, vowed to defend the Alamo to the end. Gathering the remaining defenders on Saturday, March 5, 1836, Travis, according to the “Legend of the Alamo”, gave a short talk to his ragged and battle-weary men.

We’re Turning Into Europe, Aren’t We?
- By W.H. Lamb
- Category: W.H. Lamb
Several years ago, my wife’s cousin in Washington State sent her a disturbing email. She added her comments: “I thank God that I’m the age I am, for I would hate to see what is coming to America—in fact, what may already be here.” I kept her email on file because it so bothered me that I didn’t want to consign it to cyber oblivion. I read it again recently, and I’ve decided that her concerns must be shared with concerned patriots who read this great journal of truth known as The Times Examiner.
The body of this email was an article by a Spanish writer, Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez, that was published by a Spanish newspaper back on Jan. 15, 2011. A brave Spaniard wrote these words thirteen years ago, and tragically events in Europe have degenerated since then toward societal desperation in many European nations who made the fatal mistake of welcoming hordes of Muslim “peaceful refugees” from war-torn Syria and other Muslim cesspools and dens of authoritarian extremism into their borders. I think you’ll agree that it isn’t much of a stretch of the imagination to extrapolate his words not only to all of Europe, but particularly to the now BORDERLESS United States.
