Is interracial marriage scriptural

[Coe Terrence Bass Sr.]

What are your thoughts on interracial marriage?
is it scriptural?
should the races mix?

Lets talk about it

[Archbishop Trevor 'Elihu' Greene]

People are people! Marriage becomes ungodly when it takes you away from GOD's fellowship, and purpose for you. Race means little to nothing in this!

We are all children of Adam and Eve. But it is important that we marry Christians.

[Coe Terrence Bass Sr.]

I started this discussion because I heard a preacher say that God was against "race mixing".

His whole idea was that the blood of his race should never be mixed with the blood of an inferior race in marriage.
He also stated that if a man has sex with a woman of another race it was not a sin since the other race was never considered to be human.
Another point he made was that if his daughter came home with a man of another race he would kick her out the family and never accept the children as grandchildren.
He also stated that he would rather have his son be hanged than to see him marry outside his race.
Now here is the shocking thing about all of this
This guy was a black man, preaching from his pulpit.

I then began to wonder how many black ministers felt the same way, but would never make it public.

If your daughter came home with a white man and said we are getting married how would you act?
If your son came home with a white woman and said we are getting married how would you act?

Would your response be the same for both or would you look down on the white man for being in a relationship with your daughter because of all the junk that was done to black people in the past by white men.

Would you pat your son on the back and say boy you got jungle fever?

Can we as the Church accept that there is only one race that God created in his image, we just happen to come in many different colors

His religions is based on the 'flesh'.
It smells like smoke so hell must not be far behind.

Am I to assume you are referring to 2 Corinthians 6:14

"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness?"
