Accusation: INC prohibits its members to marry non INC members and this will point that a non member will join this church for her/his love one, the purpose of this doctrine is for their membership to increase. Question: Why does INC prohibits brethren to marry nonmembers? Is it written in the bible? Answer: God, through the apostles, forbids Christians to unite marriage with unbelievers. Apostle Paul explained that just as righteousness has no fellowship with iniquity, a believer also has no accord with an unbeliever. True Christians or members of the church of Christ are the temple of god while unbelievers, that of idols or false Gods (II cor. 6: 14-16). Since the earlier times, God has prohibited his people to intermarry with those who do not belong to his nation. One of the reasons for this prohibition is that by marrying those not belonging to his nation, God’s children would be drawn away from following him “to serve other gods” (Deut. 7:3-4)
