I had a good time fellowshipping with my Torah friends at their house. We even celebrated a friend's 80th birthday and had a really good time. We sang contemporary Messianic songs together. We also had pot-blessing (pot-luck) lunch together as well.
We are hoping to have regular fellowship once a month. I wish we could have it more often, but keep in mind that this is a family's home and not an incorporated organization.
One of my friends who showed up is a guy who married a Buddhist and sees nothing wrong with it. He is in his mid 60s and his wife is in her mid 40s. He explained why he thinks this way. His reasoning is that sin is limited to the laws in the written Torah. He believes that if there is no specific Torah law forbidding marriages to non-believers, that he isn't sinning or violating Torah. Any instructions to the Israelites to not marry foreign women were made for that specific time and place and are not eternal commandments. They have no plans to have any children. Let me know what you think?

Yes, there are some laws and instructions that are for a time and place. As example, to take a spade with you in the wilderness when you go potty. I don't have to do it any longer as I have modern indoor plumbing.
Does this count as one of them? A mixed multitude left Egypt and I can only assume that a few mixed couples where at the mountain when the law was given. I am sure Father would have given a law against it at that time. On the other side, such a relationship could weaken ones resolve in the faith over time. Look at Solomon...
What this does show me once again is that the Second Covenant is not in place yet as we don't have the law written on our heart as each man still does what is right in his own eyes. If we didn't have to teach each other the law then we know for certain that the Second Covenant is in place.
