Kim Davis

You cannot turn on the television, car radio or internet without seeing the face of Kim Davis. The Kentucky County Clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses for same sex marriages, because it is against her faith.

She has been called many Nasty names, made fun of, her past dragged before the public. Four marriages, illegitimate children and whatever else she was or did before she decided to give her life to Jesus. Hypocrite they yell, they laugh at her faith, at her God and yet she stands firm. 

It is very hard for most people to understand her faith, I get that. She has decided that her "authority" is the Bible which as a Christian you know is Gods Word. There are no gray areas for Kim Davis. She does not live as most of Americans whose authority is "morality". She may tell you that "morality' is a fickle code to live by, because it constantly changes. She may remind you that once abortion was considered morally wrong and then Roe vs Wade was passed and it was morally right. That's just one example. You see God's word never changes and it hasn't in over 2000 years. It's survived all the "moral" changes that Society's have gone through, remember Rome. It was about as immoral as you could get and well you know that ending. Christianity survived and grew.

I wish I could say I believe her to be right. I wish I could say this is the woman I wanted to stand for Christianity. But honestly she is not who I would have chosen.

 As I ponder the question of why "Kim". I reflect on some of the men God chose , they would become some of our greatest Apostles...Saul of Tarsus, known as Paul who was a Jewish Zealot and his goal was to have killed as many Christians as possible. Peter a fishermen, not educated, at least Paul was educated. John the Baptist who was the forerunner of eating healthy. He ran about the countryside warning people the Messiah was coming and baptized them in a river.  Then we look at one of the greatest men in the Bible, David a man after God's own heart.  He seduces Bathsheba and then has her husband killed. Moses who killed a man. And so many more.

So who am I to say that Kim Davis is not the person to start this movement of standing firm in her faith , because she believes God's law supersedes that of five judges in black robes.

There are 40,000 pastors who has signed on to "I will not perform marriage to same sex couples". You do know that day is coming when they will start to be jailed. 

They like Kim subscribe to a higher authority .Pastor Saeed still sits in prison in Iran because he will not denounce his faith. 

I wonder is that just around the corner and is that what the majority of Americans want to take place. I don't think so. 

So as I  try to know where I fall in this Kim Davis debacle. I think ;

Could I as a Christian stand firm as Kim, it's so easy to say yes of course, but would I ?I hope I never have to decide. Would you be part of jailing your local Pastor or Priest because he stood for his faith in God. Rest assured that day is coming. In the mean time, Kim is in jail, everyone who thought she should be can now rest. She seems comfortable there, and she is determined to follow God's word ...He is her authority on how she wants to live her life. WHO YOURS?
