After the mayor of Hoschton, Georgia allegedly refused to hire a candidate because he was Black, a councilman defended her by stating that his Christian faith prohibited race mixing:
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Mayor Theresa Kenerly told a member of the City Council she pulled the resume of Keith Henry from a list of four finalists “because he is black, and the city isn’t ready for this.” City Councilwoman Hope Weeks confirmed that Kenerly made the statement.
According to the 1964 Civil Rights Act, it’s illegal to discriminate on the basis of race and sex.
Hoschton, Georgia is a nearly all-white city 50 miles north of Atlanta. In a statement, Kenerly denied the claim by saying, “I do not recall making the statement attributed to me regarding any applicant for the City Administrator position, and I deny that I made any statement that suggests (sic) prejudice.”
However, she was defended by another White politician who claimed that race mixing goes against Christianity.
“I’m a Christian and my Christian beliefs are you don’t do interracial marriage,” Councilman Jim Cleveland told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.“That’s the way I was brought up and that’s the way I believe.”
“I have black friends, I hired black people,” Cleveland continued. “But when it comes to all this stuff you see on TV, when you see Blacks and Whites together, it makes my blood boil because that’s just not the way a Christian is supposed to live.”
Kenerly has yet to reveal if she plans to resign as mayor.
Unlike most Christians today, Jim Cleveland has not only read his Bible but also seems to understand it. The first law given in the Bible is “kind after kind,” and there are numerous examples throughout the Scriptures, such as Ezra 9, where race mixing, often referred to as ‘fornication’ and ‘adultery’ depending on the context, is roundly condemned. Ezra not only divorces his non-Israelite wife, he also renounces the mixed-race ‘bastard’ children from that marriage.
Well-meaning universalist Christians will try to claim that Whites and Blacks are the “same kind”, but there are no examples in the entire Bible where a race mixed couple is celebrated rather than condemned. The New Testament begins with the genealogy of Christ to demonstrate that he was pure and unblemished in his family lineage. And since Christ sets the example for all Christians to follow, we would be hypocrites to claim that race mixing is acceptable for us when it’s completely unacceptable to God. Perhaps that’s why almost every t.v. show and advertisement today promotes race mixing.
This is just a good a place as any for this comment.
Many year ‘s ago, I was somewhere, and a black male was near me, and he had a peculiar odor that I never recognized or ever noticed in my life before.
Years later, when I hoped to maybe get into some degree of small farming and decided raising goats was better than cows , I went to several places to see about the different kinds of goats and prices.
While I was at this one particular goats farmer’s place , discussing goats with him, a male goat or what I always heard called as a boy “Billy Goats” came up to us and I recognized the exact same smell, I had smelled from the black years ago.
No matter what anyone says to me, a black may look or resemble White’s , but I do not consider them part of the White race. No more than a wolf would be considered part of the terrier family because they resemble each other. Or a horse part of the water buffalo family because they have hooves or other similar characteristics.
In tens, hundreds, thousands, millions of years , Africa has been the homeland of the blacks and they have no civilizations to prove it and yet they hate the White man and lust after his , because they have infiltrated it by slavery or whatever means and by intermarriage, rape etc., and have come to a level of civilization or intelligence of the White’s by living in it.
The black’s place in the world is no different than that of an Eagle living in the air, a fish in a stream, a mouse in a field or a multimillionaire to a poverty living person.
But they can’t stand their place in history and like Rhodesia and South Africa hate and lust after the White’s achievements and think they have been cheated of something and want it .
How long in Africa and they never developed it ,but blame others for exploiting them.
As one person or author said that they walked among diamonds and never thought to pick one up.
There was an article last year of a discarded black village and its outline discovered and the author, said and I have no doubt, he said the archologist were trying to make seem as some vast intellectual , sophisticated black civilization had been discovered.
I don’t believe the blacks are part of the White race because they resemble the White’s in features just as animals , birds , fishes, insects and other creatures do to each other ,but are of different species or kinds.
And the Jews are always lurking in the background conniving too get possession of natural resources like they have of the gold and diamonds of Africa.
Why is the bible always used to justify what we believe ? A book of laws that ended with John the Baptisor. My assistant pastor of a church in FLoida used the bible to justify his daughter’s miscegenation . This prevails in man’s will and not the will of Christ. Women have lost their souls when they repudiated natural discrimination. But the saints go marching on.
So true.
People ususally think racism is a problem, but i always say .. racism is the solution.
In the Bible, the term “strange wives” is also used for miscegenation, as in Ezra 10: 2, 10, 11, 14, 17, 18, 44. Also in 1 Kings 11:8 and Nehemiah 13: 27, for example:
—“Shall we then hearken unto you to do all this great evil, to transgress against our God in marrying strange wives?” Nehemiah 13:27
—“Let now our rulers of all the congregation stand, and let all them which have taken strange wives in our cities come at appointed times, and with them the elders of every city, and the judges thereof, until the fierce wrath of our God for this matter be turned from us.” Ezra 10:14
God never created mixed races. Humans did.
If God had wanted racial mixing, He would have created them Himself.
He did not need mankind to create them for Him.
I wonder if the jews will let this slide. This may be too much to bring to the public eye. This may be a case where these politicians have a legal leg to stand on where they can prove that the job candidate’s race is not the sole factor in his disqualification. It is now an open religious based conflict as well as potential conflict with nearly their entire constituency. This will be interesting to ser play out…
I’m not even religious, and it makes me sick, too.
Federal crime statistics on domestic abuse reveal that White women greatly increase their chances of being murdered, beaten, and abused when in an “intimate” relationship with a Black man. Not only that, Black men are far more likely to beat their White partner when children are present.
And while White men are more likely to physically abuse their White partners when drugs or alcohol are involved, that is not a factor for Black men, who are more likely to beat their White partner without being under the influence as an excuse.

AMEN!
Thou Shall Not Commit Adultery, Adulteration, Mixing, Miscegenation. The meaning is in the Hebrew and Greek for the word Adultery. By the way here is Strong’s meaning of the word holy. “sacred (physically pure, morally blameless or religious, ceremonially consecrated)”
