There is nothing in the bible that directly states that discriminating against another race is a sin. Some people read between the lines and conclude that the bible implies that racism goes against God's will. Others read the bible and infer no such thing. Before the big changes the civil right movement brought to the US, the popular belief was that when Noah cursed Ham, this curse was evident by Ham's skin turning dark. Some are still holding on to that interpretation despite it being politically incorrect now.

all our sinners and we must repent and say the sinners pray to go to heaven and be baptised in the christian belief.Then you are born again and yes you sin after that because God isnt done working on you every day s a trial and a tribulation . And being racist God sayed love even your neighbor ,your enemies etc...Hate is an evil thing not just rasict.

it's a sin of humanity... not christianity. Besides christians tend to be more judgmental... so it doesn't surprise to know that most racists in the free world..are christians

"Racist" That would mean you have Hate for someone of Color.
You say you are a believer,, God said if you "hate" Someone
"HE " God will not forgive you.,Should you choose this attitude
,You will not advance, Unless you forgive others.
Yes that is a Sin.

Jesus said the most important commandment is to love your brother as yourself. No exceptions. So yes, it is a sin to be racist.

without a doubt...sin is, simply put, that which separates us from God...God created mankind in all manner of different races-to be racist is to spit in God's face
