So I guess since the general consensus is that there is no scripture condoning this teaching, but almost every post has had a BUT in it. But I live in the south... BUT in our community they would be ridiculed... BUT BUT BUT. How about we make a choice, right now and today, to change our households to not ridicule, ostracize, alienate people who are racially blind, then all the BUTs will disappear. How about we stand against the hatred that is spoken in our presence behind their backs so it will stop. Just a thought. Just wishful thinking that God’s elect could ACTUALLY change things....

Mercy I too live in the south,and yes I've had to get rid of alot stinking thinking about race due to things I heard growing up.
Alot of my relatives would deny they had racist leaning but alot things they said were ingrained in ignorance and fear may God cleanse me from such misconceptions and see people as He sees them.

The UPCI with their marketed look, and their view on interracial marraige are stuck in 1946.

They taught their children and their children have taught their children.

It is a cultural problem in the UPCI not a scriptural position.

My family is good stock for most part but being rural Southern people they had some wrong ideas about people of color,so I've had to overcome some ideas.But I don't want to my daughters to judge people because of their pigment.

Re: Does God approve of "interracial" marriage??

Shalom Shalom


God created Adam and Eve,then to go on to create all races of the World.As he made the point that man and woman should replinish the earth while also creating in the image of GOD.Male and Female to procreate this does suggest that as long as TWO marry for Love can do so to act upon Gods commandment ,that is to marry and replinish the Earth.Man looks on the outward appearance.What GOD created ,er made is Good.Man and every man that wishes to marry should look upon Gods creation FEMALES as GOOD no matter the race or build.

Re: Does God approve of "interracial" marriage??

There is nothing wrong with mix marriage. If it wasn't for mix marraige.I wouldnt be here.
Salvation is by grace and not by race. Alot of times as Apostolics we seem to forget this.
I am just one who is saved by grace.I am Jewish by choice.Being Jewish is being circumcized in the heart, I became Jewish by believing in the Jewish God.
My God Jesus Christ trace his Messienic blood line,Its not pure Hebrew.
God is not a racist, so neither is his followers.
Shalom
Alogi
