My doubts started strongly when my friend, who is a pastor, asked his girlfriend that they get married. When the girlfriend broke the news to her parents,the parents told her point blank, that they do not support a union of a black and a white person, simply because the Bible is against it. When my buddy heard about it, he asked the parents of the girl to pinpoint those verses. So one sunday after Church, they met and the dad, who is a mzee wa kanisa and occasionaly preaches in the Church, went through layers of Bible verses. The meeting took the whole afternoon. In the end, they prayed and the dad of the girl hugged my friend, and told him not to take it personally coz he aint a racist but he doesnt want to give his daughter to a black guy, because that would tantamount to sinning. Well, in the end they got married but the parents never showed up.
Yeah, there is one case, almost Similar to this in the book:
"But he (
Jesus) answered and said I am NOT SENT but unto the lost sheep of the HOUSE OF ISRAEL (
the Jews only). "Then came she (
the Canaanite woman) and worshipped him, saying Lord, help me (
to cure my daughter). "But he answered and said, it is not meet to take the children's bread and CAST IT TO DOGS (
the non-Jews)."
BIBLE MATTHEW 15:24-26
