Romans 3:9
http://www.dailybiblestudy.org
9 What [tis] then [oun]? are we better [proechomai]
than they? No [ou], in no wise [pantos]: for [gar] we have before
proved [proaitiaomai] both [te] Jews [Ioudaios] and [kai] Gentiles [Hellen], that
they are [einai] all [pas] under [hupo] sin [hamartia]; KJV-Interlinear
9 What
then? Are we Jews any better off? No, not at all. For we have already charged
that all, both Jews and Greeks, are under sin, ESV
And so Paul concludes that having demonstrated that neither Jew nor gentile have any advantage or disadvantage before God, because they are all sinners.
Being in the line of Abraham is no advantage when it comes to salvation or the spiritual life after salvation.
Being outside of the line of Abraham is no disadvantage when it comes to salvation, or the spiritual life.
God is consistent. God does not change. God does not play favorites. God is not biased.
Anyone and everyone comes to God in the same exact way since the time of Adam, and that approach will not change. Faith of course is the approach, never works, never some perceived advantage.
Likewise there are no disadvantages that would prevent one from approaching God. Neither race or culture or geographical region or social status. Nothing can prevent a person from finding God, so long as the person approaches in faith. And faith is a mere thought process. A process that is available to everyone.
And, if someone had some form of so called disadvantage, which prevented them from having thought processes of perception, such as in an infant or through some mental disorder, then they are automatically saved if they should die prior to achieving an age of thought ability or thought responsibility.
God is always fair.
