Sunday, December 7 God is not partial, but in every nation the man that fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.—Acts 10:34, 35. It is disrespectful to consider those of another nation to be inferior to people in one’s own country. More than that, such an attitude indicates an ignorance of the facts. The publication The Races of Mankind states: “The races of mankind are what the Bible says they are—brothers.” Brothers are often quite different, but they are brothers nonetheless. Of course, no matter where we reside, foreigners live among us. That was also the case with the ancient Israelites, who by means of the Law covenant were in a special relationship with Jehovah God. The rights of non-Israelites were somewhat limited, yet the Israelites were required to treat them respectfully and fairly. What a fine example for us to follow! There is no room for partiality or prejudice among true Christians. Ac 10:34, 35 At this Peter began to speak, and he said: “Now I truly understand that God is not partial,35but in every nation the man who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him.
