I'm about to post this on EA in response to an interracial marriage thread. This
was one of many reasons I resigned membership on CAF.
I hope you CAF'ers read this too!
I'll start by openly declaring I'm for interracial marriages! Sadly, I'm acquainted with pastors and even saints which refuse to acknowledge interracial marriages, and advise against it. The despicable excuses utilized to advise against interracial marriages are 'think of society and/or culture, what will they say" or "think of the children, it will be hard on them growing up."
To pastors and saints adhering to the idiotic excuses above, to them I reply in the following fashion. Sir/Mrs/Ms, if you're worried what society/culture might think, you best leave the church and train your children in the ways of sin!
Attention readers, society has already ostracized us! We're already ridiculed and condemned for serving and obeying God! Being ridiculed for interracial marriage shouldn't make anymore of a difference. Children and teens are still ridiculed for dressing holy, not participating in certain events, and being identified as a pentecostal! My Goodness, we're already accused of being demoniacally possessed for speaking in tongues!
I'll boldly state I forbid society to dictate the love shared between any Holy Ghost filled interracial couple!
Any I'll leave the following message to those whom are against interracial marriage.
Matthew 19:6 reads "..... What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder."
When you prevent or advise against marriage between saints, due solely to ethnicity, you're in direct violation of God's divine mandate! You're also found on dangerous ground by putting asunder what God has joined together!
I think these so-called Pentecostals bearing these excuses have deeper underlying issues and need a real Holy-Ghost experience.
Blessings,
Bro. A.C.
