"And opening his mouth Peter said: 'I most certainly understand now that God is not one to show partiality, but in every nation the man who fears Him and does what is right is acceptable to Him." (Acts 10:34,35).
Men and women make many unfair judgments about their fellow human beings. Sometimes these prejudices are based upon appearances such as skin color. At other times on a person's ethnic background, language, nationality or economic strata. Or it may merely be that one person reminds us of another person that we do not like, so we decide not to like them either. Jesus, during His ministry, seemed to enjoy taking someone the people didn't like, like a publican or a Samaritan, and making them heroes in His parables.
Our famous text states,
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes... ." There is no partiality in the gospel's invitation
(Romans 1:16) and there will be none at judgment
(Romans 2:4-11).
