I know interracial children suffer identity issues growing up. Not all couples live in a Christian bubble separated from society. Who is that talking in the video?

“I know interracial children suffer identity issues growing up” This could only be true if our identity is based on the amount of melanin one produces. Our identity is in who we are, not what we look like. I’ve never met someone who is blind and the first thing they ask me is what shade of color I am to determine the person I am. Rather instead they deduce my identity by my character and integrity.

Jeremy,
I agree with what Brother piper said. I have never had a problem with this issue of interracial marriage…

How is this still a topic? It’s 2012, not the 1940s. Apparently, Christian people still think this way? Should I move out of the South then? I moved here to the South not long ago thinking that this was no longer an issue out here. I guess I’m wrong.

Shouldn’t pastors bless all marriages, even those that are not interracial?

Absolutely! I was just focusing on an aspect of marriage that is often ignored.
