Re: ~~~~Interracial Marriage~~~~

I live in the south and was brought up believing interracial marriage was wrong. The basis for this was prejudice pure and simple. About 15 yrs ago when my sister started seeing a black guy I was livid. But God dealt with those prejudices I had and I overcame them.

But it saddens me that there are still some in my local assembly that would still have a problem with this, especially if it was their child. I pray that all apostolics will overcome their prejudices and be a light to all people.

When Bro Michael Alvear came and preached for us we had and wonderful time. And I am sure he is welcome anytime.

I believe exposure to good Holy Ghost filled interracial families can make us rethink our prejudices and prayerfully overcome them.
