Does God approve of "interracial" marriage??

[Truthseeker]

many lack the oneness revelation.

[Sister Alvear]

My husband is from Chile...the Lord approved of our marriage...

The Bible doesn't say interracial marriage is a sin, but if people of different races decide to get married they may face some things ,and experience some alienation.I'm in the deep south ,so things might not be the easiest for couples of mixed race.

Wellll, I married a Philippina who is part Malay, and part Spanish, and probably part Japanese as well.
I am half Norwegian, a quarter Scotch, a quarter Spanish, and a wee bit a Irish just to throw a monkey wrench in the works.

My kids-heaven help them, have all of that in them as well.

That's why they just say they are Canadian!

God don't care the colour, race or background, but he does very much care about our Theology!

It is not a sin however one must be certain to know the cultural differences and pressures that can be placed on the marriage because of it. In certain areas of the country to hostility would be so servere the marriage might not survive. Then how do the parents and families of the folks getting married feel? But scripturally it is not forbidden.

I agree and this is how I would advise people.
Here where I live the spirit of prejudice runs deep.

And is that right brother?

I am not blaming you because I know your heart and spirit is too gentle for it, but some times you just have top do what you feel is right.

I think it is kind of like Rosa Parks when she said I ain't gonna go ride in the back of the bus.

If people are in love and want to get married, maybe it is the prejudiced people who need to change and not the other way around.

Not it's right but if you are not from the south, the culture might be hard to understand to you.Alot of the blacks are prejudiced, at the white folks and alot of the white folks are prejudiced towards people of color.
Folks mingle at school ,and work ,but there is still alot of segregation here,sadly
