There is only one chosen race, one holy nation, and one people for God’s own possession that will always exist (1 Peter 2:9). They are not the white “race” or black “race” or any other made-up race. They are the people who share the blood of Christ.

A couple of days ago, Joel Webbon said, “I am AGAINST interracial marriage. That is to say, I believe interracial marriage “generally” goes against God’s normative design for humanity, nations, and cultures.”

One of the most prevailing myths in evangelicalism is that worldliness is a distinctly leftist trait. Worldliness is any personal, cultural, or political thing that makes us stray from the narrow road of Christ, from the Left or the Right. The Right side exit off the narrow road is just as worldly and deadly as the Left side.

In that way, Joel Webbon is no different from Russell Moore. He might not be seeking approval from leftists, but he is seeking approval from white nationalists and “black pill” Manosphere men like Nick Fuentes.

In the aforementioned social media post, he also said, “The average Christian woman on social media is retarded.”

I am used to reading those kinds of words from black pill men who hate Christ and Christian women. But Nick Fuentes didn’t say that. Andrew Tate didn’t say that. Joel Webbon, a “Christian” husband, father, and pastor, said—and defended—that.

Many men have debased themselves by trying to be “based.” Being “based” is quickly becoming a new version of “culturally relevant.” Desiring to be culturally relevant, some professing Christians became supportive of unions that God condemns—gay “marriages.” And desiring to be based, people like Joel Webbon are condemning marriages that God supports: “interracial” marriages.

People who celebrate what God condemns and those who condemn what God celebrates are both abominations to God (Proverbs 17:15 ). Although their cultural and political motivations may differ, their spiritual motivations are identical. They think they know better than God.

Joel Webbon is against “interracial” marriage, but God is not. There are several examples of God blessing interracial marriages in the Bible, such as Joseph and his Egyptian wife, Salmon and Rahab, Boaz and Ruth, and Moses and his Ethiopian wife.

I think God made his support for “interracial” marriage fairly clear when he cursed Miriam and Aaron, not Moses and his Ethiopian wife, with leprosy for using interethnic marriage as a basis for their resistance to his authority. God didn’t rebuke the interethnic couple; he cursed the people, condemning them.

Joel Webbon says these are the exceptions to the rule. But he must mean his rule, not God’s. The Bible doesn’t forbid interracial marriage. That is because it doesn’t exist. The Bible and all of history do not have any record of an interracial marriage.
