EXCLUSIVE: Kentucky Clerk: I Am Prepared to Go to Jail

Kim Davis could become the first Christian in America jailed as a result of the Supreme Court decision legalizing gay marriage.

“I’ve weighed the cost and I’m prepared to go to jail, I sure am,” Mrs. Davis told me in an exclusive interview. “This has never been a gay or lesbian issue for me. This is about upholding the word of God.”

“This is a heaven or hell issue for me and for every other Christian that believes,” she said. “This is a fight worth fighting.”

Davis is the clerk of Rowan County, Ky. – a small patch of earth in the northeastern part of the state. She was elected last November – taking the place of her mother, who held the position for nearly 40 years.

It’s fair to say that issuing marriage licenses was something of a family business – until the day the Supreme Court legalized gay marriage.

Davis is a devout Apostolic Christian, and she knew that should gay marriage become legal, she could not and would not sign her name on a same-sex marriage certificate.

Good for her!

[Cedar]

God bless her.

[JudyinCanada]

Brave woman.

She won’t be alone in prison for long. They’ll start with the pastors next.

[bray]

Liberal nazi heads are exploding.

Pray America is waking

[fwdude]

Jail. Just more “gay marriage not affecting anyone else.”

[EBH]

What if she was a Muslim? They would move heaven and earth to accommodate her....wouldn’t they.

[mountn man]

Liberals don't really want her in jail.

Liberals would rather have her and anyone else like her...dead.

[timlot]

I guess. Saw report on t.v she’s been divorced 4 times. Seems she’s a my way or the highway type of lady.

[Arm_Bears]

Admirable stance by Ms. Davis, and horrible optics for all three branches of the FedGuv.

[dhs12345]

Ya. They said as much. No jail time for her. I think that they don’t want to have to deal with a martyr. They are hoping for the drip-drip-drip of eventual acceptance versus an outright confrontation.

[Rock Eye Jack]

Does anyone know where to financially help this woman?

[GodAndCountryFirst]

This is a case of true Christian martyrdom. Clearly, no law that conflicts with the Law of God can be valid — not even if the far-left US Supreme Court says so.

[massgopguy]

She has only been a Christian for four years. That was well after her divorces.

[mothball]

If she were a Muslim, this would have been swept under the rug.

[Responsibility2nd]

May God bless her and protect her as she prepares to be yet another political prisoner of the Obama Regime.

[SeekAndFind]

RE: Ya. They said as much. No jail time for her. I think that they don’t want to have to deal with a martyr.

They can FINE her, and if she doesn’t pay confiscate her belongings.... hmmm... I wonder how the optics of that would resonate...

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads Revelation 13:16

[tanknetter]

Her last divorce was in 2008.

In 2011 she found God and converted to Apostolic Christianity.

So the 4-times divorced argument is a BS political tactic designed to wage a war of personal destruction against her.

[Trumpinator]

And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Revelation 14:9-11
