Romans 2:9-12 - There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek. For God shows no partiality. For all who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.

Acts 10:34-35 - So Peter opened his mouth and said: “Truly I understand that God shows no partiality, but in every nation anyone who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him.

Romans 6:14 – For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace.

1 Corinthians 9:21 – To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law.

Application:

·         With spiritual privilege comes spiritual responsibility.

·         God does not favor an individual because of his station in life, his nationality or his material possessions.

·         Law provides no enablement to resist the power of sin; it only condemns the sinner.

·         Do I accommodate myself to the culture when it does not violate my allegiance to Christ?
