Is a sin as christianity, if a christian girl marry a baha'i man?
I'm a christian girl, who is on love with a guy, who is Bahia. We want to get marry, and me and him are decided that we keep our religion. we both respect to each other' religion and i don't think that anybody can take away Jesus from my life, even my lover. i also have very strict family, who don't want me to marry him because of our religion. they be live that the guy that i should marry should be Christian. but the problem is that i couldn't find a christian guy, who loves me from his bottom of his heart. i met alto of christian guys, but they don't even know anything about Jesus, love, respect. My lover has a very good heart. he respects me. he is very good guy. he is wonderful guy. So, i just need some advices and want to know that if i marry him, will i do the right thing as a christian? will god forgive me?
The Word of God says, "do not be unequally yoked together with an unbeliever." If you choose to disobey, yes it is a sin (that in itself will not send you to hell, but....it will not be without its own consequences.) A house divided against itself shall fall. If it doesn't fall, it is because one compromises their faith and becomes lukewarm and that one, might very well be you. Is that an eternal price you are willing to pay for a temporal decision? The time to think about it very long and hard is BEFORE you do it.
There is only One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Faith, founded by Jesus Christ, true God and true Man, outside of which no one is saved.
Good Catholics do not marry outside of the Catholic faith; but for those who do there is a saying which is oftentimes true:
Marry in haste; repent at leisure.
Sadly this can be true even when Catholic marry other Catholics; although many of them were often converts.
God respects no one...why do respect an adherent of a false religion that is opposed to the only one that Jesus Christ founded? Probably because you do not respect Jesus Christ yourself:
"This people honorerThe with their lips: but their heart is far from me."
If you love Jesus you will forsake your lover and love Him alone. To do this you need to enter His One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church.
I am a Baha'i (who happens to be married to a non-Baha'i) so I can't directly answer your questions, but I think you should know some things.
1) He will not be able to marry you unless you can obtain written consent from your parents. If they object so strongly that they refuse to consent, he can't wed you. That is a Baha'i law. You should thus approach this subject very carefully with your parents.
2) A true Baha'i will never try to "take away Jesus from [your] life". Baha'is are forbidden from proselytizing or forced conversion. Moreover, we revere Jesus as a Manifestation of God. That's not to say there won't be some lively religious discussions, but a good Baha'i will neither force religion upon you nor prevent you from worshiping as you choose.
3) A Baha'i is obligated to raise his children in a Baha'i context. At the same time, he is also obligated to expose his children to other religions, and to encourage his children to decide for themselves (at age 15) what religion they wish to follow (or to follow none at all). One must consciously choose to be a Baha'i even if raised that way from birth.
Although Baha'is are generally pretty laid-back about interfaith marriages, I'd be lying if I didn't say that it will eventually cause some conflicts and tension (especially if you have children). But so does everything else in a marriage, from money to home decoration; and just like those problems, religious differences can be worked out.
Personally, from reading your prior questions and information, I'm not sure you're ready for marriage; but I wish you the best of luck whatever your decision.
