Linda Barnette has issued marriage licenses in Grenada County, Missisipi for 24yrs. On Tuesday June 30th, she resigned rather than
issue gay marriage licenses, writing in her letter of resignation;
"I choose to obey God rather than man. I am a follower of Christ and I 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 issue marriage licenses to same sex couples."
“I told my supervisors 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 told a Fox News reporter

Good woman, God will continue to bless you and your whole family. In fact you must be with us in Heaven, you are a heavenly candidate. I am so so disappointed that this is happening in this Obama regime, the first ever black American president.

This is a true Christian not the hypocrite President Obama that signed into Law Gay / lesbian rights to marriage and signing Amazing Grace on Pulpit in front of Methodists Pastors for Wake keeping of the Charleston Massacre.

Heaven is where you belong granny...heaven is where you belong
Thanks Mrs Linda, i love your courageous act and boldness for resigning rather than issuing gay marriage license in US, i won't be surprised if Obama is a gay who might divorce his wife and marry another man after his tenure as a President
Great decision. God will honour and bless you for the bold step
GBAM!!! Correct woman.
She has made her stand clear, obeyed and honored GOD. HE will never forsake her in JESUS Name, Amen.
Kudos woman! God bless you.

And she will be called all kinds of names: intolerant, hateful and all kinds of stuff because of her belief. You are not allowed to hold any views different than those off the lgbt community or u will be persecuted.
Way to go lady. Marriage ids between man n woman, not man n man or woman n woman. That's God's plan for humanity. That's what's natural for the sake of continuation of the human race.

GOD BLESS YOUR COURAGEOUS ACTION
I love you ma! You have amazing strength. You didn't allow yourself to be bullied by the evil gay propaganda.
This right here is a definition of a Christian! This woman don't need to preach or cajole anyone to be born again, her action is evangelism itself! Ma'am, today there will be celebration in heaven for you! A true follower and lover of Christ will NEVER conform to the things of this condemned earth! Your reward awaits you in heaven, a far much better place! Life here is temporary, everything is vanity....for the few like you, keep this in mind. I will keep saying this, the whites make better Christians! This is the best news I have heard in ages! God bless you ma'am!!
BrendaN
If thats what you want, then no probs

Wow so there r still sane people in d US? I was wondering where they all went. God bless u mam. It's better to obey God than man
So America still have people with conscience? who really want to serve God. Tell Obama, that son of the devil that freedom is not to the extend of going against nature and God, the almighty.
Hallelujah !!! Glory to God for those who are prepared to stand up for the gospel. God bless you and your generations IJN. Amen
A PRACTICAL CHRISTIAN YOU ARE MOMMA!!!!! PROUD OF YOU AND AM SURE GOD IS SMILING DOWN ON YOU RIGHT NOW...THERE IS NO NEED ASSUMING ANYTHING...BIBLE SAYS A MAN AND A WOMAN SHIKINA
Wao! God bless you and your descendants.
She is so right.everyone has their strong beliefs. The world is really at its end time. During noah's days, the people were doing so much bad things in God's eye and He destroyed them all except noah and his family. Same is happening, history will repeat itself.we as humans are defiling God's arrangement and eventually forcing Him to remove the wicked ones. We are so worried about water pollution, animal killings as things that destroys ecosystem but we fail to see that humans are part of ecosystem, when we change our normal way of reproduction and sex...we will definitely change and detroy ecosystem. Even animals will be confused with their sense of smell and sight about who is who between humans.humans will be the cause of earth's destruction.but before man can completely ruin the earth, God himself will wipe out every form of wickedness and immorality of all sort that are detestable to Him.
From what she has said, she is definitely a Jehovah's Witness. I applaud you my dear sister. Indeed, we must obey God as ruler rather than men.
GOD bless her soul. She will surely get a better job
Bravo lady...we still have some sensible Americans
Tru shit
God bless you.Say no to evil.
LET ME KNOW THAT HEAVEN IS "OUR HOME" SOMEDAY WHEN WE MUST HAVE POURED OUT BLESSINGS TO OUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN.
ALL THE BEST,
SO SAYS: @MILLION-DOLARS
GOD BLESS THIS WOMAN......
Jehovah will sustain you. Obama and the five members of the Supreme Court in America have signed the Death Warrant of America. Obama is the Abomination of Desolation standing in a Holy Place. Gays are now DESECRATING the cross having sex using the Christian symbol and beating up people in the street trying to oppose them. Their logo is love win but they ain't showing any love to those who oppose their Satanic acts
This is a true believer and one who truly fear God!
Oooooooooh my...!
Interesting
I pray heaven will reward u

You did the right thing my dear, God blessings shall continue to go with u. The wise shall inherit glory.
God bless you ma, you are indeed the "Light Carrier".
So true..am with the woman, God is good
Correct! A believer by action.
It is heart warming to know that there are people who still listen to the voice of reason, the gentle whisper of the Holy Spirit, and are still firm about their belief in God Almighty, HIS holy Son Jesus Christ, and would stand by their convictions, even in the face of contradictions.
God bless you Ma'am for being a shinning light that illuminates the "dark" system of this world.
Some Americans are still sane

THANK YOU LINDA BARNETTE!! ITS SO RELIEVING TO KNOW THAT THERE IS SOMEONE WHO STILL STANDS FOR CHRIST.

YOU CAN CHOOSE TO SPEAK GOD'S TRUTH THROUGH YOUR BLOG, AND STAND FOR HIM, EVEN IF YOU LOSE MONEY THROUGH IT. LET US SPEAK OUT AGAINST WHAT IS TOTALLY WRONG ACCORDING TO GODS TRUTH. DONT BE COWERED INTO SILENCE. DONT MAKE PACT WITH THE DEVIL.
THANK YOU LINDA. AM STANDING BY YOU. FOR THIS SACRIFICE, CHRIST WILL STAND FOR YOU FOR ALL TIMES.
A wise decision!!!
