8 Bible Verses about Partiality

And some days after, Paul said to Barnabas, Let us go again and visit the brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they are. And Barnabas determined to take with them John, called Mark. But Paul did not think it proper to take with them a man who had left them in Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.read more.

Not as though the word of God hath failed; for not all they that are of Israel are Israel; nor because they are descendants of Abraham are they all children; but, "Thy offspring shall be reckoned from Isaac."

For the word of promise is this: "At this time I will come, and Sarah shall have a son." And not only so, but also when Rebecca had conceived by one man, our father Isaac, before the children were born, or had done any thing good or evil, to the end that Gods purpose according to election might stand, not depending on works, but on the will of him that calleth, it was said to her, "The elder shall serve the younger:" as it is written, "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated." What then shall we say? Is there injustice with God? Far be it! For he saith to Moses, "On whom I have mercy, on him will I have mercy; and on whom I have compassion, on him will I have compassion." So then it dependeth not on him that willeth, nor on him that runneth, but on God who showeth mercy. For the Scripture saith to Pharaoh, "For this very purpose did I raise thee up, that I might show forth my power in thee, and that my name might be made known in all the earth." So then he hath mercy on whom he will, and hardeneth whom he will. Hence thou wilt say to me, Why then doth he still find fault? for who resisteth his will? Nay but, O man, who art thou that makest answer to God? Shall the thing that is wrought say to the workman, Why hast thou made me thus? Hath not the potter a right out of the same lump of clay to make one vessel for an honorable use, and another for a dishonorable? What if God endured with much patience vessels of wrath fitted for destruction, purposing to manifest his wrath and to make known his power; purposing also to make known the riches of his glory upon vessels of mercy, which he had before prepared for glory, whom he also called, even us, not only from among the Jews, but also from among the gentiles?
