i am asking and posting this to ask if it is a sin to be in a interracial relationship. From what i can understand in the bible that the only sin in a relatosnhip and or marriage is to be unequally yoked. I am taking that as being christian being with a non-christian. Please help.

I agree with you. It is not a sin. However, there are cultural issues. You need to make sure that you understand them. It would be like a Spaniard marrying a German. There are going to be things that are quite different. Where will you go to church? What about children?

There are definitely more things to think about.

I do not know as far as what is biblical, but I wanted to give my opinion

I feel that the heart does not see color, race or age, I do not know of anything in the bible that is against such and yes as for the scripture you are quoting from is only of what you spoke of, being with someone who refuses the love of Christ
And I want to say REFUSES because some will say oh "they" are not Christian so I would not be able to be "with them" because of unequally yoked.....what if they have never been led to Christ or told the truth about him??
You see it does not mean unequally yoked because they are not a follower, but if they CHOOSE to not follow.

I believe if a man treats you as a Godly man should and you both are wanting to follow Christ it does not matter of color race or age, I believe God sees us the same, I don't think He sees race color or age only His children.

I may be wrong but as I said this is ONLY my opinion.
I wish you the best, and may God pour His blessings upon your relationship and make it last a lifetime.

Hello Singlemom98

God bless you this day.

Marriages between different races or between people with different colors of skin is NOT a sin.

God bless and keep you.
