I was arguing with this idiot and I wish to prove to him that I was right, and that it is not a sin. And if it is the bible whats the verse??Does the bible say interracial Couples are a sin?
No, it says this.
Colossians 3:11 where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcised nor uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free, but Christ is all and in all.
2 Corinthians 6:14 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? 15 And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? 16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: ';I WILL DWELL IN THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM. I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.'; 17 Therefore ';COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM AND BE SEPARATE, SAYS THE LORD. DO NOT TOUCH WHAT IS UNCLEAN, AND I WILL RECEIVE YOU.'; 18 ';I WILL BE A FATHER TO YOU, AND YOU SHALL BE MY SONS AND DAUGHTERS, SAYS THE LORD ALMIGHTY.';
It says Christians should only marry other Christians and that faith not racial heritage is what matters. In the Old Testament God forbid the Jews from marrying people of other tribes for the same reason. He said that if they married pagans then they would be tempted to worship their false ';gods';.
Boaz married Ruth a Moabite and they were in the line of David the King and eventually Jesus. But Ruth had converted and said that Naomi's God would be her God.
Ruth 1:16 But Ruth said: ';Entreat me not to leave you, Or to turn back from following after you; For wherever you go, I will go; And wherever you lodge, I will lodge; Your people shall be my people, And your God, my God.
Ruth 4:13 So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and when he went in to her, the LORD gave her conception, and she bore a son. 14 Then the women said to Naomi, ';Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you this day without a close relative; and may his name be famous in Israel! 15 And may he be to you a restorer of life and a nourisher of your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has borne him.'; 16 Then Naomi took the child and laid him on her bosom, and became a nurse to him. 17 Also the neighbor women gave him a name, saying, ';There is a son born to Naomi.'; And they called his name Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David. 18 Now this is the genealogy of Perez: Perez begot Hezron; 19 Hezron begot Ram, and Ram begot Amminadab; 20 Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon; 21 Salmon begot Boaz, and Boaz begot Obed; 22 Obed begot Jesse, and Jesse begot David.Does the bible say interracial Couples are a sin?
It's not a sin. But 50 years ago, the same crowd arguing against same-sex marriage today claimed it was. Jerry Falwell went on record stating that integration and interracial marriage were against God, and that Christians should rise up to oppose both. The religious right lost that battle, so they are aimed at a different minority today. They claim that same-sex marriage is a sin. But scripture in the original languages, Hebrew and Greek, disagrees with them. So once again, they are in the wrong, and once again, history will remember them as bigots.
Some prominent Biblical figures married outside their race. For example, Joseph took an Egyptian wife, and Moses married an Ethiopian woman. Deuteronomy 21:10-13 contains provisions for marrying a foreign woman taken captive.
But from time to time the Israelites were warned against marrying foreigners. These warnings had more to do with the religious influence a foreigner would have than a racial prohibition. Solomon is the most famous example of the dangers involved in marrying someone from a different religion. In the end, Solomon’s tolerance of his pagan wives religious practices was responsible for God’s anger against him, prompting the civil war that followed his death. (1 Kings 11:29-40)
In 1 Cor 7:12-16 %26amp; 2 Cor 6:14-18 Paul also strongly advised against marrying a non-believer, citing the irreconcilable differences in world view and the uncertainty that the believer would ever convert the unbeliever.
From the Biblical perspective, marrying someone who doesn’t share your religious beliefs poses far more serious problems than marrying outside your race.
No, the Bible doesn't really discuss races at all, only ethnic and tribal groups, and in this context intermarriage is only discouraged when it would result in marriages to nonbelievers. See the Book of Ruth for an example of a Moabite woman whose marriage to an Israelite is portrayed in a positive light.
1Cor.14:34-35 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law.
35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
I do not find anything in Scripture where it is a sin to love anyone based upon staying in our own race, let alone ';color';, He created us in His image, we are ';human';, He Loves ALL of us unconditionally, doesn't make sense to forbid loving someone because of color :-) God Bless
Yes it is
But only to prevent them from conversion
3 Do not intermarry with them. Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons, 4 for they will turn your sons away from following me to serve other gods, and the Lord’s anger will burn against you and will quickly destroy you.
Nowhere.
Moses to whom God gave His law -- and who therefore knew God's laws better than anyone else -- married a black woman.
Num 12:1 And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman.
And when Miriam ran her mouth, God struck her with leprosy.
Num 12:9 ¶ And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he departed.
Num 12:10 And the cloud departed from off the tabernacle; and, behold, Miriam [became] leprous, [white] as snow: and Aaron looked upon Miriam, and, behold, [she was] leprous.
Num 12:11 And Aaron said unto Moses, Alas, my lord, I beseech thee, lay not the sin upon us, wherein we have done foolishly, and wherein we have sinned.
Num 12:12 Let her not be as one dead, of whom the flesh is half consumed when he cometh out of his mother's womb.
Num 12:13 And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, Heal her now, O God, I beseech thee.
Num 12:14 ¶ And the LORD said unto Moses, If her father had but spit in her face, should she not be ashamed seven days? let her be shut out from the camp seven days, and after that let her be received in [again].
Num 12:15 And Miriam was shut out from the camp seven days: and the people journeyed not till Miriam was brought in [again].
No. The only places I know of ANYTHING like this is in the old testament where God tells the Isrealites to not marry with the people of the lands they are in. That wasn't a race thing, it was a religion thing. He didn't want them marrying people of other religions, knowing they were weak in their faith.
There is nothing in the Bible regarding interracial relationships.
The Bible says we should love our brothers as our selves. This is pointing to praying for salvation for everyone including your enemies.

(Confidentially I suggest you never admit you were arguing with an idiot. I would rather suggest this: The second you realize you are arguing with an idiot that you tell that person you need to invoke rule #2 and walk away. After several of these the idiot will ask you ';What is rule #2?'; You can first tell him rule #1 is to love God with all your heart and soul. and ';rule #2 is never to argue with anyone more ignorant than myself'; Then walk away.)
Here is something else to think about.
AMOS 3:7Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
Here is a truth that is derived from detailed Bible study: The world will come to an end on 10/21/2011. Before that date the believes will be raptured on 5/21/2011. There is also every reason to believe that God's voice will be heard on that day and it will be God's voice that will cause the great earthquake which is indicated in the Bible as the beginning of the end event (5 months of suffering on Earth).

Jesus said not to be unequally yoked. to be with another that believes differently than you. For you will grow apart and not together and then divorce. And race could play into this, but this is not what it was meant for.
Tell him, we can marry whoever God brings to us. No matter who or what they look like.
take care.
you are right. interracial couples are not a sin, but if one is against that that is called
prejudice and prejudice is a sin. that guy acts like he knows, but he doesn't know anything; not even the bible.
Act 17:26 And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth...
We are ONE race. The human race. The only 'mixed' marriage that God forbids is a believer getting married to a nonbeliever.

This is incorrect too
As long as you're in america, where god pays attention, you can have interacial relationships
Most ';sins'; were put together by enterprising preachers!
According to the BIBLE writers, incest and multiplicity of sexual partners is not a “SIN”...!!! Believe it or not, God is very much responsible for who gets what girl for a lover or a wife and how many of them, too! In fact, God is known to take the lawfully wedded wives away from ONE husband and give them to other MEN! Not in an isolated case, BUT AS A ROUTINE IN THE BIBLE! So if you feel drawn to make up with a sexual partner other than your spouse GOD may be leading you to do it! Make sure you take it seriously as the will of God. It is all in the Bible! The preachers admit that there is plenty of elbow room to interpret what God says on anything, but they are still too shy to come out of their closets! In essence, they are busy looking for new “sins” to make life miserable for the rest of us to justify their existence, like same sex marriage, abortion, stem cell research and what have you! One thing is what the Bible says, and another is what the preachers tell you!
Jeremiah 10:10a (NIV) Therefore I* (*God) will GIVE THEIR WIVES TO OTHER MEN* (*Plural) and their fields to new owners* (*this Bible God is messing in human affairs like it is no joke! No sex starved Christian lady ought to feel guilty about anything that God does to make her feel good!)
2 Samuel 12:8 (NIV) I* (*God) gave your master's house to you* (*King David), and YOUR MASTER'S WIVES* (King Saul’s wives, all his wives, many of them!) into your arms. I* (*God) gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if all this had been too little, I would have given you even more (Wow… more totally submissive wives yet!)
King David committed adultery with Bathsheba. He got her pregnant and had to kill her husband before he finds out! King David already had many wives. Now, God is giving King David even more women than he can possibly keep up with for his own pleasure. God didn’t like what King David did on his own though, so he had to kill the Bathsheba/David’s baby in a slow painful death WITHOUT MERCY no matter how hard King David prayed about the kid God was so pissed off at him that he wouldn’t listen! A new baby was born to them by the name of King Solomon. He was one of Jesus ancestors and this one was OK with God! It is all in “God’s plan of salvation!” It may sound bizarre to any Christian, but that’s how the wanking Bible writers dream up the Bible stories. Christians assume that atheists don’t read the Bible, when the truth is that Christians are very selective in what they want to read from the Bible so they assume that the rest of the Bible is all about killing Jesus!
2 Samuel 12:11-12 (NIV) This is what the LORD says: “Out of your own household I am going to bring calamity upon you. Before your very eyes I* (God, not Satan, but God!) WILL TAKE YOUR WIVES AND GIVE THEM to one who is close to you, and HE WILL LIE* (*have sexual intercourse!) WITH YOUR WIVES in broad daylight. You did it in secret, but I will do this thing in broad daylight before all Israel* (*including before children so they can have fun learning about sex, of course!).”
Done! (2 Sam 16:21-22) BTW… Bathsheba was King David’s favorite wife…! SHE IS HAVING SEX NOW WITH SOMEBODY ELSE, NOT ANYMORE WITH ANY OF HER ORIGINAL HUSBANDS that included King David, but with a God given THIRD or so STUD! No wonder the girls in the X rated videos that are moaning for God end up having even more sexual partners! It is all natural and in the Bible! Fundamentalist Christians are blinded by their own totally hallucinated Puritan Preachers who go about making up a living on it, so they naturally ignore all this real life stuff in the Bible!
Ezekiel 16:37 (NIV) therefore I* (*God) am going to gather all your lovers, with whom you found pleasure, those you loved as well as those you hated. I* (*God, not SATAN, but God) WILL GATHER THEM AGAINST YOU FROM ALL AROUND AND WILL STRIP YOU IN FRONT OF THEM, AND THEY WILL SEE ALL YOUR NAKEDNESS.
I would definitely love to attend in a first row seat! Parading a NAKED LADY in front of her wanking lovers and admirers! It has a strong message, especially for the God hating atheists! They don’t know what they are missing for rejecting Christ! They are so prude that they don’t want to enjoy one of God’s classic shows, either!
Private NIGHT CLUBS “for adults only” are of the Devil! God will never force anybody to sin. Christian ladies enjoy all they can IT IS ALL ON GOD…! NO NEED TO BE SHY! In the case of King David’s WIVES, God changed their husbands at least 3 times!
BTW… You should know that King David was already married to Michal the daughter of King Saul (1 Sam 18-19). So when God passed all the wives of King Saul to King David he became automatically married to Michal’s mother, too! God is not a “respecter of persons” and he “never changes”. According to the Priestly Bible writers a man of God can be in bed with the mother and her daughter at the same time to keep it all in the family without ever “sinning!” The Bible allows the Christians all kinds of sexual pleasures as long as they side with the Bible God! The preachers that get caught today have bad karma! Lay Christians are limited only by the secular morality prevalent at the moment and place, and by what their preachers tell them. Most preachers and Clergypersons used to enjoy ecclesiastical immunity until recently!
Currently, in our society it is officially one husband to one wife, but Christians can do in the closet and still go to Heaven! What Jimmy Swaggart, Ted Haggard, and so many others did and do with hookers and lovers is nothing out of place for them. The Bible flip flops on a lot of moral issues! Most Priests writing the Bible were not different from you and I, except that they lived back then when hardly anybody heard of CNN. Can you imagine any preacher having to explain why he has 1,000 wives and lovers* (*concubines) OK… because of our current secular morality make it one wife and 999 lovers! It is all Biblical! Today Christians in America have picked a repressive Puritan lifestyle as the standard of morality for everybody, not the more liberal Bible standard!
Not at all.God loves all his children.
no such thing in the Bible that dude is a moron.
