I've posted to my social networks and networked with other contacts in UPC, PAW and other nondenom churches to notify in the event of a protest or march on the State Capital.
IMO, Christians should take a page from the black lives matter group and disrupt everything -- from traffic to shopping at malls, to ball games, etc.
And yes, I would join any one of those types of protests.

Yep that is just what Paul did, as he was being jailed and whipped for the Gospel. The others were marching for his rights as a follower of the way.

I think you are at a disadvantage because the scriptures don't teach civil disobedience. You are to pray, and that God will help YOU live in peace in the world where you live ( Romans 12:17-21). May I suggest you work harder to convert people to the Gospel, so in that way they will not want a world where homosexuality is acceptable behavior.

Re: Kim Davis
I would march. Government needs to get out of marriage period. Marriage is religious. Marriage was derived by God (in religion) and it was not founded by government. If government wants separation of church and state they should not be involved in religious practices.

Yes, I am to pray. And I do pray for our leaders and officials, local, state and federal. I also appreciate your suggestion.
But I will not stand idly by and allow this to go unchecked.
Yes, the Bible says there will come persecution, but it does not say to stand idly by and allow it to happen.

Don't worry we will probably see similar days. This controversy is stoking the flames. Government has already chosen their side. Kim Davis is being torn apart. What will we do when this issue comes to the church near us?

While marriage can be viewed as religious, not all religious people are married.
Government licenses it's people, who are in that government. We have some people saying that this woman should quit her job, so on and so forth, but what about them? Will they be looking for another country that doesn't support homosexual marriage? Like....RUSSIA?

Ok, show me where it instructs civil disobedience?
