'Good' in the Bible

The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom of God,

and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is at hand! Repent, and believe in the Good News."

He said to them, "Is it lawful on the Sabbath day to do good, or to do harm? To save a life, or to kill?" But they were silent.

Others fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing. Some brought forth thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times as much."

Those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times."

For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.

Peter answered Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let's make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

Salt is good, but if the salt has lost its saltiness, with what will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another."

As he was going out into the way, one ran to him, knelt before him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?"

Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except one -- God.

Jesus said, "Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News,

The Good News must first be preached to all the nations.

But Jesus said, "Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for me.

For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want to, you can do them good; but you will not always have me.

Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News may be preached throughout the whole world, that which this woman has done will also be spoken of for a memorial of her."

He said to them, "Go into all the world, and preach the Good News to the whole creation.
