Entire county clerk office resigns over SSM

[HereWeGoAgain]

Oh well. If you can't do the job you were elected to do then bye bye.

Issuing marriage licenses to gays is not the job they were elected to do.

Working as a clerk isnt an elected position.
Although I do salute their devotion to their principals.

Actually, County Clerk IS an elected position. The assistants however, are not.

I didnt say county clerk.
The people working the counter at the county clerks office are not elected officials. They're clerks.

The county clerk's office issues marriage licenses DUH. One of these 3 ladies was the ELECTED county clerk. DUH

Reading is fundamental.

So I was right 2 out of 3... You? 1 out of 3.....
Derpy,derp,derp ...math is funDUHmental.

I mean good for them, but who gives a fuck.

I'd say it to your face you piece of shit, and MDK is more of a man than you will ever be.

Bullshit...you're the weakest piece of nancy boy here ya fucking joke.

Bull, I've walked many, many drunks back from the mistake of thinking they wanted to fight me, and you know what has ALWAYS held true? The loud mouth that runs around talking about " you don't want none of this" is always the biggest pussy in the room. ALWAYS.

This is the god damned internet son, and you pretty much daily talk about wooping someone's ass over a fucking message board....... Obvious pussy is obvious.

Well, except at NO point did I say they were all 3 elected officials you moron. I said "the county clerk is an elected position" and guess what moron, only one of those women was a county clerk, they others were assistants.

Again, reading, it's fundamental.

ENTIRE COUNTY CLERK OFFICE RESIGNS OVER SAME-SEX MARRIAGE


No same-sex marriage licenses are being issued in Decatur County, Tennessee, because the entire county clerk’s office has resigned following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide.
Decatur County Clerk Gwen Pope explained her decision to quit her elected post. “It’s for the glory of God. He’s going to get all the glory,” she told WBIR.

Pope asserted she would rather resign than submit to issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples. She and her two staff members, Sharon Bell and Mickey Butler, have all quit for the same reason. Their last day of work is July 14.

The TV station indicates the phone in the Decatur County Clerk Office “rang nonstop” as “[o]ver and over again, people praised the decision of the three workers who have decided to step down from their positions rather than hand out same-sex marriage licenses.”

Entire County Clerk Office Resigns Over Same-Sex Marriage - Breitbart

Here is what people do not consider - because the spiritual realm is invisible to the naked eye. There are angels that are recording every word we say, every thought we entertain, every action we make. All of our words, deeds and actions are being recorded.

With that said, Lass, Satan who is our adversary is also using his own demons to record every word we say and every action we take - so that he may use it against us when he goes before God to accuse us. Satan doesn't accuse us of what we haven't done but what we have done - he uses the Word of God like a lawyer uses a law book before a righteous Judge in a court of law.

Example: Satan will say to God, Your Word says, The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. This person who claims he is one of your children is defending homosexuality and homosexual marriage on a message board, he is misprepresenting your word in his posts and accusing your obedient children of error and I've found him regularly standing with the wicked which you warn against in your Word. Your word rules in Psalm 1:6 that the ungodly shall perish.

And again I remind you of your Word which says that the wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips! And again your Word says that a faithful witness will not lie but a false witness will utter lies. I find this man is returning evil for good too! He is is rewarding evil for good and your word says that whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house. Because of all these things - I have grounds to destroy this mans house and take his life. I am hereby petitioning you now to permit me to send my own workers to do a home invasion on his house and kill him. You said the wicked shall be turned into hell. I am petitioning to take him to hell now.

The LORD may say, I grant the petition or he may say to Satan - you cannot kill him but you can attack his body, destroy his house, take everything he has and cause him serious injury. But you cannot take his life.

______
This goes on every single day whether people realize it or not. We are being judged by our words, our thoughts and our deeds. (Satan cannot read our minds but the LORD can and if our thoughts are impure and un- repented of - they will send us to hell as easily as a sin committed in the flesh would. Remember that the man who lusted in his heart after a woman had committed adultery even as if he had done it in the flesh - Jesus said ).

So while some people who call themselves Christians desire to be "popular" - part of the "in - Crowd" it would be wise for them to consider that by compromising the Word of God and defending evil with their own tongue / writings - they are leaving themselves wide open for an attack from Satan.

To the person who uses the terminology a "real Christian" and then claims it is one who does not speak out against sin. I have news for you. The Satanists and Witches that visit this board know full well who the "real Christians" are because they are unable to touch them, to attack them, to prevail against them. They avoid the "real Christians" because they know they are asking for trouble.

In closing the story of these clerks quitting their jobs has already been recorded in heaven and I believe God counts it an act of righteousness. Good for them. I also believe that God will count it as an act of righteousness to make a thread about it and applaud those who stand up for the Word of God and walk it out - with their feet! Bless you, Lass.

Find and dandy, doesn't change the fact that we don't limit rights in this country based on what some people is right or holy.

The Supreme Court broke the law. It wasn't their place to rule against the constitution nor was it their place to change the laws of this land - it wasn't their place to decide at all, Bear. With that said, the only thing these workers could do was to quit their job. Abortion is legal too. It's still murder and no Christian would work in an abortion clinic either.

I have no qualms with their quitting. Of course that is their right.

But you are entirely wrong on the issue of the COTUS.

Please find me a section of the COTUS that empowers the government to outlaw gay marriage. You will not find one.

You are a nice person, and I believe your faith to be real, but you are confusing what your faith with our government. They are not the same thing. We do NOT pass laws based on what is sinful, we base laws on what harms other people.

For example, murder isn't illegal because the Bible says it's wrong. Murder is illegal because you do NOT have the right to end another person's life without justification.

So in order to make gay may marriage illegal you would have to justify that choice by pointing out how anyone is harmed by gay marriage.

^ And that is the basis I think will be used to put an end to gays being allowed to force businesses to take part in their weddings. Forget religious reasons, its all about taking away another persons' rights.

While I understand and appreciate what you are saying, Bear, I believe the determining factor would be what did our founding fathers have in mind on the matter of marriage? You see in this country it is against the law to be married to 2 wives or 2 husbands.

I do not know that our founding fathers ever imagined a time when our nation would actually believe that redefining marriage would be acceptable. That legalizing a marriage between two men or two women would even be suggested much less approved by the Supreme Court which was never designed to decide such matters!

On the matter of using it to force Christians into complying with "the laws of the land" or being jailed - I believe that is precisely where this is going. I preach the whole counsel of God - not in part - so it won't change how I preach the Gospel or what I preach. I do not focus in on one sin to the exclusion of all other sin but neither do I avoid calling sin sin while the rest of the world is calling it "a right".

What's "true" is you never been in a fight, boy. Not a single fucking one. I know that because you're a coward plain and simple....a yellow bitch hiding behind an MP arm band pulling rank on guys who'd rip your fucking head off one on one. You talk shit but you never show up.

U.S. Law isn't base on your guy hanging on two sticks

Actually our founding fathers would disagree with you. The Laws of this land can be found in the Bible. Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness (in a courtroom its called perjury) and these are commandments that were given to Moses by the LORD.

It is written:

Search the Scriptures, for in them ye think ye have eternal life, and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
I receive not honour from men. But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you. I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not, if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.

How can you believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?

Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father, there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust, For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me. But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

- Jesus Christ
John 5:39-47

Not this ignorant crap again Jeri, this country was not founded as a christian nation and most of the founders were deists ( nature's god not a revealed bible god)

The myth that America is a Christian nation is not only untrue, but promotes the pernicious idea that non-Christians are second-class citizens.

Shortly After the Constitution Was Ratified, Conservative Ministers Attacked It Because It Lacked References to Christianity

Ministers of the founding period knew that the Constitution didn’t declare the United States officially Christian—and it made them angry.

In 1793, just five years after the Constitution was ratified, the Reverend John M. Mason of New York attacked that document in a sermon. Mason called the lack of references to God and Christianity “an omission which no pretext whatever can palliate.” He predicted that an angry God would “overturn from its foundations the fabric we have been rearing and crush us to atoms in the wreck.”

Conservative pastors continued whining well into the nineteenth century. In 1811, the Reverend Samuel Austin thundered that the Constitution “is entirely disconnected from Christianity. [This] one capital defect [will lead] inevitably to its destruction.”

In 1845, the Reverend D. X. Junkin wrote, “[The Constitution] is negatively atheistical, for no God is appealed to at all. In framing many of our public formularies, greater care seems to have been taken to adapt them to the prejudices of the INFIDEL FEW, than to the consciences of the Christian millions.”

Well, except at NO point did I say they were all 3 elected officials you moron. I said "the county clerk is an elected position" and guess what moron, only one of those women was a county clerk, they others were assistants.

Again, reading, it's fundamental.

Again with the derpology?
And two of em weren't. They were clerks.

No they werent you moron. Words have meanings.

One of them was a county clerk WHICH IS A FUCKING ELECTED POSITION and the other two were assistant county clerks, which are NOT elected positions.

Why you are even arguing about something that is a non issue anyway is just ridiculous.

Here is what people do not consider - because the spiritual realm is invisible to the naked eye. There are angels that are recording every word we say, every thought we entertain, every action we make. All of our words, deeds and actions are being recorded.

With that said, Lass, Satan who is our adversary is also using his own demons to record every word we say and every action we take - so that he may use it against us when he goes before God to accuse us. Satan doesn't accuse us of what we haven't done but what we have done - he uses the Word of God like a lawyer uses a law book before a righteous Judge in a court of law.

Example: Satan will say to God, Your Word says, The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. This person who claims he is one of your children is defending homosexuality and homosexual marriage on a message board, he is misprepresenting your word in his posts and accusing your obedient children of error and I've found him regularly standing with the wicked which you warn against in your Word. Your word rules in Psalm 1:6 that the ungodly shall perish.

And again I remind you of your Word which says that the wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips! And again your Word says that a faithful witness will not lie but a false witness will utter lies. I find this man is returning evil for good too! He is is rewarding evil for good and your word says that whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house. Because of all these things - I have grounds to destroy this mans house and take his life. I am hereby petitioning you now to permit me to send my own workers to do a home invasion on his house and kill him. You said the wicked shall be turned into hell. I am petitioning to take him to hell now.

The LORD may say, I grant the petition or he may say to Satan - you cannot kill him but you can attack his body, destroy his house, take everything he has and cause him serious injury. But you cannot take his life.

______
This goes on every single day whether people realize it or not. We are being judged by our words, our thoughts and our deeds. (Satan cannot read our minds but the LORD can and if our thoughts are impure and un- repented of - they will send us to hell as easily as a sin committed in the flesh would. Remember that the man who lusted in his heart after a woman had committed adultery even as if he had done it in the flesh - Jesus said ).

So while some people who call themselves Christians desire to be "popular" - part of the "in - Crowd" it would be wise for them to consider that by compromising the Word of God and defending evil with their own tongue / writings - they are leaving themselves wide open for an attack from Satan.

To the person who uses the terminology a "real Christian" and then claims it is one who does not speak out against sin. I have news for you. The Satanists and Witches that visit this board know full well who the "real Christians" are because they are unable to touch them, to attack them, to prevail against them. They avoid the "real Christians" because they know they are asking for trouble.

In closing the story of these clerks quitting their jobs has already been recorded in heaven and I believe God counts it an act of righteousness. Good for them. I also believe that God will count it as an act of righteousness to make a thread about it and applaud those who stand up for the Word of God and walk it out - with their feet! Bless you, Lass.

Find and dandy, doesn't change the fact that we don't limit rights in this country based on what some people is right or holy.

The Supreme Court broke the law. It wasn't their place to rule against the constitution nor was it their place to change the laws of this land - it wasn't their place to decide at all, Bear. With that said, the only thing these workers could do was to quit their job. Abortion is legal too. It's still murder and no Christian would work in an abortion clinic either.

U.S. Law isn't base on your guy hanging on two sticks

Actually our founding fathers would disagree with you. The Laws of this land can be found in the Bible. Thou shalt not kill. Thou shalt not steal. Thou shalt not bear false witness (in a courtroom its called perjury) and these are commandments that were given to Moses by the LORD.

It is written:

Search the Scriptures, for in them ye think ye have eternal life, and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.
I receive not honour from men. But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you. I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not, if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.

How can you believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?

Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father, there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust, For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me. But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

- Jesus Christ
John 5:39-47

Not this ignorant crap again Jeri, this country was not founded as a christian nation and most of the founders were deists ( nature's god not a revealed bible god)

The myth that America is a Christian nation is not only untrue, but promotes the pernicious idea that non-Christians are second-class citizens.

Shortly After the Constitution Was Ratified, Conservative Ministers Attacked It Because It Lacked References to Christianity

Ministers of the founding period knew that the Constitution didn’t declare the United States officially Christian—and it made them angry.

In 1793, just five years after the Constitution was ratified, the Reverend John M. Mason of New York attacked that document in a sermon. Mason called the lack of references to God and Christianity “an omission which no pretext whatever can palliate.” He predicted that an angry God would “overturn from its foundations the fabric we have been rearing and crush us to atoms in the wreck.”

Conservative pastors continued whining well into the nineteenth century. In 1811, the Reverend Samuel Austin thundered that the Constitution “is entirely disconnected from Christianity. [This] one capital defect [will lead] inevitably to its destruction.”

In 1845, the Reverend D. X. Junkin wrote, “[The Constitution] is negatively atheistical, for no God is appealed to at all. In framing many of our public formularies, greater care seems to have been taken to adapt them to the prejudices of the INFIDEL FEW, than to the consciences of the Christian millions.”

Shut the fuck up moron. Plenty of the founding fathers were Christians. They also didn't want the US to be a theocracy.

Hey Bull go ask the guys in your imaginary unit you "served" in who the last guy anyone wanted to fuck with was. Answer, the MP.

Now, call me a coward some more , it makes you look like a real man LOL

ROFLMAO!!!! Any 5'5" trigger-puller would grab your ankles and make a wish ya fat old coward. I gotta admit you've got a sense of humor that's likely kept you from getting your clock cleaned many times.

I have no qualms with their quitting. Of course that is their right.

But you are entirely wrong on the issue of the COTUS.

Please find me a section of the COTUS that empowers the government to outlaw gay marriage. You will not find one.

You are a nice person, and I believe your faith to be real, but you are confusing what your faith with our government. They are not the same thing. We do NOT pass laws based on what is sinful, we base laws on what harms other people.

For example, murder isn't illegal because the Bible says it's wrong. Murder is illegal because you do NOT have the right to end another person's life without justification.

So in order to make gay may marriage illegal you would have to justify that choice by pointing out how anyone is harmed by gay marriage.

^ And that is the basis I think will be used to put an end to gays being allowed to force businesses to take part in their weddings. Forget religious reasons, its all about taking away another persons' rights.

While I understand and appreciate what you are saying, Bear, I believe the determining factor would be what did our founding fathers have in mind on the matter of marriage? You see in this country it is against the law to be married to 2 wives or 2 husbands.

I do not know that our founding fathers ever imagined a time when our nation would actually believe that redefining marriage would be acceptable. That legalizing a marriage between two men or two women would even be suggested much less approved by the Supreme Court which was never designed to decide such matters!

On the matter of using it to force Christians into complying with "the laws of the land" or being jailed - I believe that is precisely where this is going. I preach the whole counsel of God - not in part - so it won't change how I preach the Gospel or what I preach. I do not focus in on one sin to the exclusion of all other sin but neither do I avoid calling sin sin while the rest of the world is calling it "a right".

Again, we don't base our laws on what is sinful.

And , of course our founding fathers didn't mention marriage at all. I think they would be appalled to realize that we have actually let out government force us to get a license to marry in the first place.

I think they would be appalled SSM is legal....given many of them favored castration of homos

LOL I'd love for you to provide a single quote from anyone who signed either the DoI or the COTUS stating that they would favor castrating homosexuals. I would be SHOCKED if you could do so.

Hey Bull, go call MDK a queer again, I know it makes you feel like a tough guy.

That'd be micro-surgery.

Ah , now we see the real root of Bull's angst. He's afraid MDK might have a bigger penis than him.

I'm sorry Bull but those women who told you "size doesn't matter" lied, they all left cuz you have a tiny penis.

That also explains the constant barking about " you wouldn't say that too my face"
