I don't know about that.

It is a mortal opinion that God is not a respecter of persons.
While God himself refers to those he named in the Book of Life before he created the world, those whom he predestined unto his Salvation, his Elect. The Elect.

Are you the elect? Im not. A different story involved those who were elect and foreknown by God, accounted for in the apostolic record, and possibly the old testament.

God is not a respecter of persons? Who is more humble than God?

 

[MatthewG]

God is not a respecter of persons? Who is more humble than God?

Is that not awesome, and awe inspiring to think that God loves everyone equally and is always calling by the spirit?

Yes.

 

[ElieG12]

When the Bible says that God does not "respect" people, what it is saying is that he does not make distinctions between faces, because he sees things more important than that...for example, the heart, thoughts, intentions, etc. These things do not depend on the physique of the people or the positions they occupy, etc. That is why he is not partial when he judges; His rules apply to all types of people.

Deut. 1:16 At that time I instructed your judges, ‘When you hear a case between your brothers, you are to judge with righteousness between a man and his brother or a foreign resident. 17 You must not be partial in judgment. You should hear the small one the same as the great one. You must not become intimidated by men, for the judgment belongs to God; and if a case is too difficult for you, you should present it to me, and I will hear it.’ 18 At that time I instructed you regarding all the things that you should do.

Even if a foreigner was treated unfairly by an Israelite and he asked Jehovah for justice, the Israelite would receive punishment by God's justice for having been cruel to the foreigner. This shows that God does not "make any face more distinguished."

Deut. 24:14 You must not defraud a hired worker who is in need and poor, whether one of your brothers or a foreign resident in your land, within your cities. 15 You should give him his wages that very day, before the sun sets, because he is in need and his life depends on his wages. Otherwise, he will cry out to Jehovah against you, and you will be guilty of sin.
