I think this concept
sometimes gets taken out of context. A
lot of people seem to think this means that God doesn't show a preference at
all. I think a lot of people miss the second
part of the verse.
Acts 10:34-35(NKJV)
Then Peter
opened his mouth and said: “In
truth I perceive that God shows no partiality.
But in every nation whoever
fears Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him.
I think the proper
interpretation is that God shows no partiality among those who believe in
Him. In other words Greek and Jew are
saved equally in God's sight. Scripture
tells us repeatedly however that God favors those who believe over those who
don't.
Want proof? Those who believe are saved and get eternal
life. Those who aren't saved get eternal
damnation instead. I'd say there is some
partiality there. :)
