Default Christianity and Intermarriage

Is there a passage in the bible that forbidds marriage between different races, subraces or nationalites? There is a passage in deutermony (old testament) that pagans should not be married since they would turn away a believer from the worship of god (Deuteromony 7) but even ultra-orthodox rabbis recognize that conversion is possible to judaism, its about intermarriage in faith not race. In the new testament apostle paul wrote that a christian can marry a pagan since the christian can make the pagan a christian. (1 Corinthians 7).
