Kim Davis Debate: It’s Not About Marriage

What’s really behind the attack on Kim Davis? Have you thought about it? Kim Davis is the Rowan County Kentucky Clerk who was jailed last week because of her refusal to issue marriage licenses to gay couples following the United States Supreme Court’s landmark ruling in June on the basis of her religious conviction. Davis stopped issuing all marriage licenses in June the day after the U.S. Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. Two gay couples and two straight couples sued her. Yesterday, she was released from jail. As an apostolic Christian, she says gay marriage is a sin. She also says it would be a sin for her to issue a marriage license to a same-sex couple because the licenses are issued under her authority.

It’s Not About Marriage

What People are Saying in Support of Kim Davis

“What we end up having is the first example of the criminalization of a Christian for believing in the traditional definition of marriage. “We must defend religious liberty and never surrender to judicial tyranny. “I am proud of Kim for standing strong for her beliefs. Who will be next? Pastors? Photographers? Caterers? Florists? This is a reckless, appalling, out-of-control decision that undermines the Constitution of the United States and our fundamental right to religious liberty.”Mike Huckabee

“Today, judicial lawlessness crossed into judicial tyranny. Today, for the first time ever, the government arrested a Christian woman for living according to her faith. This is wrong. This is not America. “I stand with Kim Davis. Unequivocally. I stand with every American that the Obama Administration is trying to force to choose between honoring his or her faith or complying with a lawless court opinion.”US Senator Ted Cruz

What Does the Bible Say About Homosexuality?

Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people-none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God. Some of you were once like that. But you were cleansed; you were made holy; you were made right with God by calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.” (1 Corinthians 6:9-11 NLT)

Do not practice homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman. It is a detestable sin.” (Leviticus 18:22 NLT)

Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully, understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, the sexually immoral, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine ...” (1 Timothy 1:8-10 ESV)

And don’t forget Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighboring towns, which were filled with immorality and every kind of sexual perversion. Those cities were destroyed by fire and serve as a warning of the eternal fire of God’s judgment.” (Jude 7 NIV)

God’s Wrath on Unrighteousness
Romans 1:18-32 New King James Version (NKJV)
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. 20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, 21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. 27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality,[a] wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving,[b] unmerciful; 32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

Franklin Graham: Christians Should Prepare for Persecution After Gay Marriage

Franklin Graham is one of the outspoken Christian leaders against Gay Marriage. On this video, Todd Starnes and Franklin Graham react to Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage. Franklin Graham says that “the Court has no authority to change or override God’s laws which define marriage as between one man and one woman.”

“I believe the Bible. God loves us. No questions about that. But sin is sin. And God has standards. And when violate those standards, any type of sexual relationship outside of marriage relationship between a man and a woman is sin against God.” – Franklin Graham

Ravi Zacharias on the Christian View of Homosexuality

This video is part of “Answering the Biggest Objections to Christianity,” a live Q&A with author and scholar Dr. Ravi Zacharias on April 12, 2015 at Christ Community Chapel. The question is: “How do you respond to non-believers who accused Christians of being hateful to people who support lifestyle and not according to the precepts of our faith?”

Ravi Zacharias on the Christian View of Homosexuality


Ravi Zachariasis the founder of RZIM Zacharias Trust. Ravi’s own journey has been one of remarkable transformation from a turbulent childhood in Asia to becoming one of the world’s best-known apologists. Born in India in the 1940s, Ravi’s religious upbringing was an eclectic blend of both spirituality and superstition. Although his parents were nominally Christian, they did not have a personal faith in Christ and their routine involved attending the temple during festive occasions as well as consulting palmists from time to time.

Argentina : First Country in Latin America to Legally Recognise Gay Marriage

City of Buenos Aires, Argentina
Gay couples celebrates victory in Argentina. They are now given same rights enjoyed by their heterosexual counterparts including adopting children after the country legalised same-sex marriage last Thursday, 15 July 2010.
The unprecedented legislation passed despite intense opposition by the Roman Catholic Church.  Argentina is known to be predominantly Catholic nation. The vote is  33 to 27  with three abstentions. With this, Argentina became the first country in Latin America to legally recognise gay marriage. While same-sex civil unions are recognised in Buenos Aires, parts of Mexico and Braziland in Uruguay, no other Latin American country prior to Argentina had allowed gay and lesbian couples to marry.
Argentina now joins nine other countries in the world where same-sex marriage is legal, including Belgium, Canada, Iceland, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, and Sweden. In the United States, gay marriage is legal in five states – Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont– and federal district Washington DC. (Click on the links for headlines stories)
