'That Which Is Good' in the Bible
Did then that which is good become death to me? May it never be. But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, by working death to me through that which is good; that through the commandment sin might become exceeding sinful.
For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but to do that which is good is not.
Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.
For rulers are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Do you desire to have no fear of the authority? Do that which is good, and you will have praise from the same,
Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, to be building him up.
For your obedience has become known to all. I rejoice therefore over you. But I desire to have you wise in that which is good, but innocent in that which is evil.
