Woman resigns rather than issues gay marriage licence in the United State
The woman
in question goes by the name Linda Barnette, she has issued marriage licenses
in Grenada Country Mississippi for 24
years, thus she resign on the 30th of last month, in her resignation letter,
she wrote
“I choose to obey God rather than man. I am a
follower of Christ and believe strongly that the Bible is my final authority. The Bible teaches that a marriage is to be between a
man and a woman. Therefore, because of the recent ruling of the U.S Supreme
Court, I can no longer fulfill my duties as Circuit Clerk and issues marriage
licenses to same sex couples
"I told my supervisor a while back if it
happened, I would tender my resignation. I had already decided in my heart that
I could not issue marriage licenses to same sex couples. It’s my Christian belief.
As a follower of Christ, I could not do it. The Bible teaches it is contrary to his plan”
she is bold enough to
tell the world about her faith, what she felt about same sex marriage what
about you out there?
