Admin	What does the Holy Bible say about marrying or dating someone out of your race? Posted : 10 Jul, 2009 06:27 PM My ex husband is Caucasian. I'm Puerto Rican. Now, my family insists that I stay within my own race when finding a mate. I told them that I do not care the race of my future mate. But I wonder...What does the Holy Bible say about marrying or dating someone outside ones race? Thanks Post Reply

However, the expectation is that a Christian will marry another Christian to be equally yoked. In any relationship, you'll have to depend on God's grace; and so, in many ways a "mixed" marriage (kinda odd to talk about that in the year 2009) is better because the culture shock can remind people of their unity in the Holy Spirit. Is your family catholic? Post Reply

View Profile History	What does the Holy Bible say about marrying or dating someone out of your race? Posted : 10 Jul, 2009 08:15 PM Hi guys. No my family are not Catholic. They're just very upset how my ex treated me and i kinda think they believe finding one of my own race would somehow be better. Which is wrong. They are bad people in all races. But it good to know that the Holy Bible doesn't state what my family insists on. You know, each time they tell me to make sure my future mate is Spanish, it offends me. I tell them that, but they don't care. Whomever I'm destined to be with, they will have to accept him. Amen my brothers? Thanks for responding. Post Reply

Posted : 11 Jul, 2009 09:21 AM dear folks, there was a time in the old testament that GOD told the folks not to marry into the other peoples. my ole memory aint so good and cant reccollect it so good. they was called a different people. it may of been they worshipped other gods.. cant remember if they was a different race or not right off. either way after JESUS tells us and paul tells us who should be married and who should not be. there is nothing mentioned about race then.. only that we should be equally yoked. so i dont see race as an issue to GOD.. GOD looks into your heart.. saved ,unsaved ,christian or unchristian. ole cattle Post Reply

IN ADDITION, LIGHT AND DARKENESS CANNOT MIX, WHERE THERE IS LIGHT, DARKNESS MUST FLEE. SO AS LONG AS THE PERSON FOLLOWS GOD, HIS PRINCIPLES AND WALKS IN THE LIGHT, YOUR TOTALLY FINE, BUT ABOVE ALL, PRAY ABOUT WHAT EVER DESCISION U WISH TO TAKE. HAVE A BLESSED DAY:waving: Post Reply

Posted : 12 Jul, 2009 11:00 AM Hi Rose, If you make sure you are equally yoked in Christianity the man you marry will win your family over thru love. If God is in it, nothing can stand against it. I think your family is just concerned for you. Love them for it. God Bless, Sandy Post Reply

Posted : 20 Jul, 2009 04:22 PM The bible does not say much about mixed races today but there are a lot of examples of what happened when Israel mixed their bloodline.Consider that when the bible sayes God never changes.
