Bible Question: I was told that it is against God's will to marry with someone of another nationality. But wasn't shwn where in scripture. Can someone refer me to the scripture verses that speaks about that. |
Bible Answer: Paulie, There is no verse in the bible where God is against interracial marriage. There are some verses in Ezra ch.9, but Ezra was incorrect in his views. God has always been ok with marriage between any male and female. ischus |
