God is not a respector of persons at present.But someday all of that will change for He will gather all those that are His from the four corners of the earth.And those that have rejected Him and his Son will be cast into the lake of fire never again to hear His call .Many will Scream out for Him but He won't even hear their cries anymore.They will be separated from God and His Mercy and Grace forever and ever never to have another chance for He will no longer know that they ever existed.Thank You so much for the opportunity to answer such a question.Remember He will come in the twinkling of an eye.Another words you could blink your eye and there He would be. Are you ready?

That is an unusual question from a person with your site nickname. Like why do you care. But, being serious, I believe God loves all equally however he does choose certain people for certain jobs such as Mary, the apostles, etc.

He chooses favorites. I know this because I hear people say that 'God has blessed ' them. You know, like when they have a nice house or nice car or a nice day. If god cared for everyone equally then everybody would be 'blessed' and there would be no reason to point it out to others.

Yes, God chooses favorites if that is the word you want to use for it.
But all are still invited, few are chosen.
God chose some very unlikely people in the bible to use for his will and his way. You will find that he very seldon picked people of influence or power. He picked humble men and women who would be willing to do his will and his way without allowing their own thoughts of self importance get in the way.
So, all are invited to accept God and his word and his way. Few are chosen for the purpose of carrying out his word.

No, he hates some people.

And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.

The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

These six things doth the LORD hate ... A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

All of us are His children and He loves each of us accordingly. There are many passages concerning His being no respecter of persons, meaning that He treats each of us the same. Specifically, He knows each of our strengths and weaknesses and has given each of us a life to fit those abilities. He does not give us tasks that are too difficult for us. Nevertheless, we sometimes fall short of His expectations by making wrong choices. For that reason, He provided an atoning sacrifice to help us make up the difference between what we should have been and what we become. That is the spiritual deficit created by our sins that needs an atoning intermediary, namely Christ. Thus, the way is there for each of us to return to Him if we learn to be obedient, repentant and faithful throughout our lives.

God loves us all very much, but it's tough love. That's why most of us will end up in an inferno. It's like letting your 6 year old child run amok without doing anything about it. But when he turns 10, you beat the crap out of him for a 1,000,000 years for breaking a window 4 years ago.

I think God loves us all for different things. Much like a parent with more than one child. You see different gifts in each of them and perhaps wish they could all have the same qualities that you find attractive but you love them equally in spite of the differences.

If you are a born again believer in Jesus Christ, you are God's "favorite". This can't be so with human love, it is so with God's love.
It is God's love that brings people to repentance, He reaches out in love to all, even those who bat His "hand" away.
