If you have determined that the OT text no longer applies, why bring up the question at all? There is no debate whatsoever that God intended that the nation of Israel remain isolated from the rest of the world, marriage-wise. The only NT picture that can be drawn is restated in I Corinthians. Quote:

It was a very good topic on Cody's forum. I thought it maybe a good topic here. I think this maybe like the " God hates sinners topic " It's not the same in the O.T. as it is now. As Bro. Parish posted. Things do change from O.T. to N.T. But this dose apply to saved and lost people just as it did in the O.T. Saves folks should not marry lost folks. I know that rule still appears in the N.T. Atlas |

SIDENOTE: Moabites and Ammonites were Shemites, yet were on the forbidden list. Jesus had Moabite connections through Ruth.

Did you ever notice the Noah issue? Gen. 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God. Notice what made God mad, race mixing with angles. Noah made God happy because of three reasons. 1. Noah was a just man 2. Perfect in his generations 3. Noah walked with God I belive that Gen. 6:2 was talking about angles. Atlas Last edited by atlas; 11-10-2008 at 02:32 PM. |

Atlas,
The verses you quoted don't say anything about race. That's Scriptural. Equating them with "race" is isogesis. In fact you'd be hard pressed to find anything in the Bible about race. The Bible defines nations, not races. Race is at its core an evolutionary concept, not a Biblical one. |

From the beginning God commanded that His people only marry believers.
Most problems Israel had were due to false gods and marrying pagan worshippers. In the New Testament we were are warned to 'not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. So, it is obvious Christians may marry anyone 'in the Lord', meaning fellow Christians. There may be a few obstacles in such a marriage but it won't be with the Lord but with those who don't know the Scriptures or love the Lord. Last edited by dixiemama; 11-10-2008 at 02:33 PM.

![]() If you meant "angels", they are a different species, not a different race. If Dr. Ruckman preaches segregation, that would be an important fact to know. |
