Did you know that God does not show favoritism? What exactly is favoritism? It’s the practice of giving unfair, preferential treatment to one person or group at the expense of another. God can’t be accused of such a thing.
Since the Bible is our foundation for all of faith and life, let’s refer to what it teaches.
“Also the foreigners who join themselves to the Lord, to attend to His service and to love the name of the Lord, to be His servants, every one who keeps the Sabbath so as not to profane it, and holds firmly to My covenant; 7 even those I will bring to My holy mountain, and make them joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be acceptable on My altar; for My house will be called a house of prayer for all the peoples.” (Isa 56:6-7 NASB)
Notice that God’s house is for ALL PEOPLES—even those termed ‘foreigners.’
Then Peter replied, “I see very clearly that God shows no favoritism. 35 In every nation he accepts those who fear him and do what is right. (Ac 10:34-35 NLT)
For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. 13 For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” (Ro 10:12-13 ESV)
It doesn’t matter if you are a Greek or a Jew, or if you are circumcised or not. You may even be a barbarian or a Scythian, and you may be a slave or a free person. Yet Christ is all that matters, and he lives in all of us. (Col 3:11 CEV)
As we can see from these verses in Acts 10, Romans 10 and Colossians 3, it’s an established truth that God does not see distinctions between people groups. What is important to the Lord is the condition of our hearts and whether or not we have received Jesus Christ as our Savior and Redeemer. God is a refuge and a rock for all who are born again in Christ. All praises to the Lord!
