Question: Dr. Bob, do you believe that it’s OK for a Christian to borrow money from a non-Christian, or is that prohibited scripturally? Response: God’s Word simply says that whatever you borrow you must repay. I don’t see anywhere that God specifies whether or not it’s OK to borrow from a non-believer–it doesn’t make any difference, as far as repayment is concerned. However, a caution does appear in Proverbs 22:7 where we are told that a lender become an authority over a borrower. This might be particularly important where a church or another ministry is concerned.
