Race

[Rickeo]

lol a lot of questions tonight just been watching another YouTube video and someone commented that a as Christians you can't mix race and be with someone of another colour skin than themselves as that is a sin?????

This seems a little wrong to say the least is it or not??

Rick

your question is not clear to me, but i would like to replay based on what the bible says about racial differences.

Galatians 3:26-29

26You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus,
27for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.
28There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free,male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
29If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.


AMEN !

Hi Rickeo,

In the Old Testament, the Israelites were to be careful about who to 'mix' with.

What we see here now, is that Christians must be careful about who they 'mix' with. It has nothing to do with 'race' . All have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God, and Jesus died for the sins of the world, that by grace we might be saved in believing.

Our salvation is not in skin colour or marriages of different skin colours.

The point I am making here is that the 'marriage' or 'relationship' is Spiritual, and for that reason, our choice of partners is important.
Skin colour has nothing to do with our standing with Christ Jesus the Lord.
Now, I say this carefully, and I want it to be very clear.....

darkness and light is spiritual, and has nothing to do with the flesh of a person, or their family bloodline.
The shades of melanin (the pigment that appears as colour in skin) is another wonderful bit of artistry by the hand of the One who died so we may live. Much like different colour greens in a forest, or blues in a sea.

Bless you...><>
