Prayers please for Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis who has been ordered into the custody of US Mashall's until she agrees to , 'Marry', sexual perverts. The first of many such martyrs, I expect. May we be as steadfast when our own time swings round http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...-court-clerk-marriage-licenses-gays/71635794/
Yes Lord, Tootsie into Your Everlasting Arms. AMEN! I've thought for many years that we should look on death as Life's Last Great Adventure. I must say that as old age and infirmities are upon me, thoughts of My Last Day are "strangely" comforting. I'm sorry for those with no Faith GOD SAVE ALL HERE!!
It is a huge adventure. Though a great battle to go through too, I suppose at the end. Jesus Mary and Joseph may I breath forth my soul in peace with you.
The Kim Davis situation is so close to home for me. I live only about 60 miles from where all this is going down. It is a terrible story. The two gay guys don't even live in her county. They could have gone to any other county in the state to get their pathetic license and yet they go here because they know this lady and where she stands (they had had run ins with her in the past when they did live in the county). This is all for publicity and to make their ridiculous point at the expense of this poor lady and her beliefs. It begins indeed. Stand tall with the rosary in one hand and your scapular around your neck!
prayers for tootsie and the county clerk too. It must all be so surreal for the county clerk. she is probably sitting in jail thinking...is this really happening to me? it is all falling apart so fast!
Andy, thanks for sharing your on the scene update. I had suspected right from the start that this was a "set up". This is really not about marriage, but is a full frontal attack on religious believes. Another diabolical judge has taken action well beyond his authority and created anarchy. Funny when the Defense of Marriage Act was first passed (as you may know it too was struck down by the courts) Obama told his Justice Department not to enforce it. Ms. Davis is really only following what Obama did. The differnce no one threw his backside in a jail. It's all so transparent on what is happening here and I do pray that Ms. Davis stays strong. I believe many of us will be called to similar actions as she. http://www.wnd.com/2015/09/kentucky-clerk-has-no-intention-to-resign/
I am praying for this woman, and praying that she is in the center of God's will. We must be wise as serpents and gentle as doves. Much discernment is necessary. Unless specifically called to this, I believe that the Sodom County clerk position is not for Christians.
Apparently the Federal Judge who sent her to prison , David Bunning, is a Catholic, a Republican Conservative who has a history of supporting partial birth abortion? Put in position by Bush? I am lost. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/201...e-who-sent-the-kentucky-county-clerk-to-jail/
I see the Washington Post describes the Judge as a , 'Devout', Catholic with, 'Guts' Stranger and stranger. http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...ame-sex-marriage-decisions-unlikely-enforcer/
My friend played cards with us once a week except for the summer. She attended adoration once a week and Sunday mass. She died in bed. A lovely lady. May she RIP and thanks for the prayers for her soul. Imagine it could happen to anyone of us.
Here is one reason I believe the world is topsy-turvy. As I recall, 18th century British philosopher, Edmund Burke, argued that natural law is a foundation for both moral and civil law, but Judge Bunning thinks otherwise, stating that natural law could be dangerous! “Personal opinions, including my own, are not relevant to today,” Bunning, a federal district judge, told Davis and the courtroom Thursday. “The idea of natural law superseding this court’s authority would be a dangerous precedent indeed.” Romans 1 speaks of this foundation of natural law: 19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20 Ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, namely, his eternal power and deity, has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. It appears that Judge Bunning puts the authority of five Supreme Court justices above God's Divine Will, with no accommodation for dissenting religious convictions. For me, that is the dangerous precedent! Safe in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary!
Thanks for that Terry. As you say things are so confused, but if we pray I think we will see clearly. It is soberng to see this Catholic Judge go of the rails like this Of course it was the smae in Nazi Germany. When people were brought up for war crimes they claimed they were simply following orders, obeying the law. The Judges at Nuremberg did nt accept this. As far as I recall some German Judges were put on trial for crimes and used the same excuse , but it was not accepted. Evil laws should not be enforced. It seems pretty basic to me. http://www.fourwinds10.net/siterun_data/government/judicial_and_courts/news.php?q=1240242981
Yes indeed, this is a very dangerous precedent being set. And although I am on the record in thinking there will be no presidential election, it is interesting to see presidential candidates position on the situation. In the same way I could never vote for someone who supports abortion, I also could never support a candidate who agrees with this woman going to prison for this. They won't have your back on 1st amendment rights.
So will be interesting to see if an accommodation is made for this woman's religious believes. http://www.cnn.com/2015/09/05/travel/muslim-flight-attendant-feat/index.html
