There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile; but glory, honor and peace for everyone who does good: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. For God does not show favoritism.
There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil
Psalm 32:10 Many are the woes of the wicked, but the LORD's unfailing love surrounds the one who trusts in him.
first for the Jew, then for the Gentile
Romans 1:16-17 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed--a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: "The righteous will live by faith." (Habakkuk 2:4)
Amos 3:1-2 Hear this word people of Israel, the word the LORD has spoken against you--against the whole family I brought out of Egypt: "You only have I chosen of all the families of the earth; therefore I will punish you for all your sins."
Romans 3:1-2 What advantage, then, is there in being a Jew, or what value is there in circumcision? Much in every way! First of all, the Jews have been entrusted with the very words of God.
John 4:22 "You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews."
For God does not show favoritism
Acts 10:34-36 Then Peter began to speak: "I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts from every nation the one who fears him and does what is right. You know the message God sent to the people of Israel, announcing the good news of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all."
