What does the Bible say about God's impartiality?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that God is no respecter of persons, meaning He does not favor one person over another based on worldly distinctions.

In Acts 10:34, it is stated that 'God is no respecter of persons.' This means that while God sovereignly distinguishes between individuals in matters of grace and providence, He does not show favoritism based on human circumstances such as wealth, race, or morality. God's grace is dispensed according to His sovereign will and pleasure, as emphasized by Charles Simeon, who noted that 'God’s grace is his own; and he dispenses it according to his own sovereign will.' Furthermore, Scripture illustrates this with numerous examples, showcasing that divine acceptance and rejection are based on God's sovereign choice, not on any human merit or condition.
