Although the words "courtship" and "dating" are not found in the Bible, we are given some principles that Christians are to go by during the time before marriage. The first thing to realize is that we must separate from the world's view on dating because God's way contradicts the world's (2 Peter 2:20). We are told (by society) to date around as much as we want, going through as many people as possible. Instead, we should discover what kind of person we are getting into a relationship with before making that commitment. We should find out if the person has been born again in the Spirit of Christ (John 3:3-8), and if they share the same desire to be as Christ was (Philippians 2:5). Why is this important in finding a partner? A Christian person should be careful not to marry an unbeliever (2 Corinthians 6:14-15) because this could weaken your relationship with Christ, or compromise your morals and standards.

It's better for you to read the Bible and take that to heart, not the racism of a troll posting garbage on a forum.
What does the Bible say on this matter? Let us all know what the Bible said when YOU read it on this subject. Hurry up and let us know.
Until then Acts 10: 34 - 35 is a good place to start. Do you know what this scripture says? Get back to us on what you observed in the Bible and not what some troll posted on here.
Hurry because we want to see that from you.

No. The bible teaches Christians should not be "unequally yoked." This is a reference to marrying outside the faith. Some nutcase racists have distorted this to their own benefit. If you read the old testament, you will find many times the Jewish people married and accepted other races. Each time though they converted to Judaism.
God Bless.

I have read the KJV of the bible from gen to rev and no where does it say that... There are no chapter or verses that come even close to saying that... Who ever wrote that staement was not quoting the bible he was quoting the kkk version of the bible that they wrote................................ I often wonder how do these racist come up with these non-existing bible quotes... Then I found out that they wrote their own version of the holy bible for their member to quote from......................................... And now i really understand what the twisted cross really means.... total lies and deceptions.......... Twisted so that it resemble the truth without proof.... And yes they can say it came from the bible but they just don't tell you that is located only in their twisted version of the bible that they created..........

the Bible says something to the fact of stay with your own people this meant the people of God who came out of Israel, in Exodus it says the people who came out of Egypt were a MIXED MULTITUDE. Meaning not just Jew but those who had been enslaved with the Jews this would have included Blacks,Arabians,Hitites,Greeks ETC... So what the Bible says is Marry people of God. Race is not the issue.

Who cares if the bible says it. The Bible contradicts itself over 400 times. It's not an adequate text to live your life by because it offers no definate answers.

There is mention of marrying from ones own tribe in the Hebrew scriptures but it is relative to inheritance rights. I think that Moses's wife was an Ethiopian, correct me if I am wrong.

Different races should date and I read the bible and I know that you can because everybody is the same. It is just color that is different and that do not matter. Yahoo.com lied

No, it's NOT true.
1st of all;
We Are All 1 -ONE- Human Race.
2ndly;
The fact that we can procreate,
proves this.
And 3rdly;
It does speak of different faiths; i.e.
believer & an unbeliever.
NOWHERE does it 'even hint' at
asian/blk
wht/german
native Am/irish
italian/ jewish
yugoslavian/austrian
get it???

Different races is fine... I don't really think this was very applicable anyway when the bible was written. You're not supposed to "yolk" with those outside of faith, but few follow that anymore.
Also you aren't really supposed to "date". You find a partner and you stick with them...
