Paul preached to the Greeks and said:

Acts 17:26 :"And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;"

Although all people are of one blood, Paul says each group has its appointed times and "bounds" of habitation.

Note this verse:

Deuteronomy 32:8 "When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel."

The prophesies of Genesis are still binding on all of humanity - we all die, we eat meat, ! we work by the sweat of our brow, and women have pain in childbirth. Another set of prophesies is just as valid, even though it has been ignored by modern man - the prophesies involving the 3 son's of Noah.

Japeth went north and became the European - Shem went east and became the Asiatic - and Ham went south and became the African. The prophesies also indicate that the "Lord God of Shem" is blessed (the Jews, and Jesus Christ after the flesh, come from Shem, as do all the world's major conterfeit religions), Japeth will be enlarged and dwell in Shem's tenst (he ends up as the world leader and gets Shem's land: all of the Americas), and Ham is set as a servant of both Shem and Japeth (and the African always prospers when he has asiatic or european managers).  These prophesises may be unpopular, but the are (like all Bible prophesies) 100% true.

But Nimrod (from Ham) was a rebellious race-mixer who set up the first "United Nations" in Babylon ! (in the East where he did not belong). The people wanted to be one united people. But God didn't like it and went down and confused their languages in order to seperate them. The tower of Babylon went against God's command in Genesis 9:1: "Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth."

Note what Paul said was God's good reason was for seperating the races:

Acts 17:27: "That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:"

So national and racial seperation is part of God's plan in order to help people "seek the Lord." It is not "evil" or discrimination. It is God's perfect plan for humani! ty. It is not the result of anything bad, it is God's will.

For example, when the Lord returns, he will not do away with national racial and ethnic boundries. They are an important part of his divine plan:

Daniel 7:14 "And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed."

Revelation 7:9 "After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, ! and palms in their hands;"

Revelation 14:6 "And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people," [tribulation martyers]

Zechariah 14:16 "And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles."

So God seperated the races for a reason, a reason that will continue to exist as long as the earth exists. God does not like race-mixing and told Israel many times his direct will about it:

Leviticus 20:24 "But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I am the LORD your God, which have separated you from other people."

Judges 3:5-7 "And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, Hittites, and Amorites, and Perizzites, and Hivites, and Jebusites: And they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their daughters to their sons, and served their gods. And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgat the LORD their God, and served Baalim and the groves."

Ezra 10:10-11 "And Ezra the priest s! tood up, and said unto them, Ye have transgressed, and have taken strange wives, to increase the trespass of Israel. Now therefore make confession unto the LORD God of your fathers, and do his pleasure: and separate yourselves from the people of the land, and from the strange wives."

This shows that political correctness has nothing to do with sound Bible doctrine - the Bible teaches that races should be separated.

Christians are a special group of people called out of all the nations to be Christ's bride, and are therefore unique:

Galatians 3:28 "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus."

and

Revelation 5:9 "And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;"

Therefore Christians have a unity that the world does not have, and never will have, and never can have. There is no peace for the world because they do not have the King of Peace.

Yet as Christians we do not run things politically - we don't impose the unity of the Church on a world that is not saved. Our message for the world is - if you want unity, you must find it in Jesus, not in race-mixing and in the United Nations: these are actually against God's will.

The Christian is still in the world, and although there is now neither "male or female" in Christ - we still recognize! the God ordained function of these roles (Men marry women, seperate bathrooms, Male pastors, female mothers, etc.)  Likewise, as Christians we should still honor God's general will regarding seperation of the races.

The New Testament is not a "revolutionary" document for political action. God's Kingdom is internal. In fact, according to to the New Testament tells slaves should honor their masters over five times: Ephesians 6:5, Colossians 3:22, 1 Timothy 6:1, Titus 2:9, and 1 Peter 2:18! , and it says that runaway slaves should be return to their masters Philemon 1:14.

We should witness and demonstrate God's love for all persons, and especially for fellow Christians, regardless of race. But these seperations are Biblical, and we have to inform the world that its attempts to create utopia without Jesus are never going to work.
