I kinda see stuff like that as a "see, even these men weren't perfect like Jesus, they could never be" idk
I feel like the argument of "believers can't go with unbelievers" and saying that it is talking of race is a bit of a stretch.
It is indeed quite a stretch tbh
The only way I could see that working is if you were to use the example of the Israelites and the Canaanites. The Israelites were believers where as the Canaanites are always described as being immoral heathens. God even told the Israelites to slaughter them. But even then that doesn’t seem quite right
The way I see it, it doesn’t really sound to me like miscegenation is a “sin.” However, just because something is “permitted” doesn’t make it right necessarily. Race mixing is essentially ethnic genocide when done in droves like what we see today.
@slavwave
I think this is more of a theological problem in the context of the Torah.
I feel like whoever theorized ethno-nationalism on the basis of unyoked marriages being about culture and race have poor hermeneutical skills and are trying to interpret the Bible based on their pre-existing ideological views. I haven't seen the video yet, but I'm getting a bad taste of eisegesis from hearing the theory.
The reason the Israelites despised the other nations was because of their immorality, not their race; although, immorality and culture were closely related due to the perverted sons of God ruling as the spiritual gods over the nations. God took Israel as his own after he chose Abraham.
(Even they would reject God and worship the other gods later.)
If we want to argue ethno-nationalism, we shouldn't use the Israelite/heathen differentiation.
The reason God and the Israelites hated the other nations, according to my knowledge, was because they chose to not have God as their ruler. Thus, they fell into worshipping other deities and practicing horrific acts.
Acts 17:26-27
"**26** *And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings, **27** so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us…*"
The coming of Jesus Christ (and thus his Holy Spirit at Pentecost) was to theologically reunite all under God much like they were before the Babel incident.
Since the perverted sons of God ruled over the other nations, God chose Abraham to lead them back.
Now through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob's seed, Jesus would come forth to unite the peoples whom God created to be one in him theologically.
Before that, it was Jew or Gentile; now, it is all one in Christ, as Paul says.

Best article I've found so far on the topic.

Eh, I am unsure of their teachings concerning that but I seriously doubt homosexuality is tolerated in their circles.

@Al_Bi Christ didn't come to give us a Bible and leave, He came to found a church in the ordination of his Apostles and the Holy Spirit inspired the Scripture outlining it
Compatriots. What are your thoughts on the idea of “keeping religion to yourself/having religion only be a personal thing”
^
do it
that's my thought
