Does the bible offer any positive guidance or passages to Christian / Non Christian relationships?

Surely God wants us to be happy and accepts that everyone is different (did he not make us that way) If we have found someone that we love, then why should we not be supported and encouraged?

1. I Corinthians 7 would be a good start, but it isn't the answer you want to hear. Ephesians 5 is your next stop, if you made it past I Corinthians 7. If you can deal with both passages, you're on your way.
2. I agree with you! How about 1 Corinthians 13? Famous love chapter.....
3. Yes, Love your neighbor as you love your self.
4. You should be supported and encouraged. My husband was a Christian when we first met and I was not, but he left the church and led a hedonistic life as did I for at least 10 years. Suddenly Jesus entered my life and totally changed it for the better. Then sometime after my husband cameback to Jesus and since then our relationship has grown into something wonderful. I never expected that I would ever become a Christian, but God works in mysterious ways and I'm totally greatful that the Holy Spirit is in me. Keep your love for each other, no matter what others say.
5. God is more interested in you being holy than you being happy. Do you want to follow Jesus Christ or do you want to play around with the world? James says "if anyone is a friend of the world he is an enemy of God". an enemy of God!! yikes! what a precarious position to be in!! god bless
6. You can choose to be with whomever you want, but if you are serious about being obedient to god as you promised to when you accepted his rather generous and free gift of salvation, then you will accept and be glad that you have a father who warns you in advance of the danger and trouble that will be yours if you choose to date/marry someone of another faith. Yes we must love and accept all, and there is a chance that you might see the other person come to know Christ through you, but God is loving enough to give you this warning, 'do not be yoked with unbelievers' . I have friends who cannot be all God called them to be because they chose non believing partners and it makes them unhappy even though they love them. Other Christians have the responibility to warn you, but should you choose to go your own way on this, the door should always be open and accpetance should be our priority.
7. This has really got you worried hasn't it. It may work but i don't think it is encoureged anywhere in the bible. One of you will need to give , but if you join her religion just to get her , how long will it last before you show your colours ? What ever you do I wish you well.
8. The concept of believers being unequally yoked with unbelievers permeates the Scriptures. That the grace of God at times overrules and the unbeliever becomes a Christian is not a valid reason- it is tempting the Lord your God.
9. Why is it that only humans need the help of some unknown ghost. Does any other life form go through all this crap. If a bird gets hit by a car did it do a bad thing? When man goes out and kills millions is that ok? If people truly believed all that a great bunch of you profess to believe about any religion or race of people why do the rules only apply to a certain group?? If all of gods creations are so perfect then who are you to judge differently. ( judge not falsely ) Thou shall not kill. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.. quit putting god in the picture and wake up to the fact that ignorance is the most serious sin and fear feeds it When will you be responsible for your words ,thoughts, and deeds instead of looking to someone to flush your toilet for you.
