'Good' in the Bible

Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the Good News of God,

For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the Good News of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you always in my prayers,

So, as much as is in me, I am eager to preach the Good News to you also who are in Rome.

For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, for it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes; for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.

But glory, honor, and peace go to every man who works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

in the day when God will judge the secrets of men, according to my Good News, by Jesus Christ.

Why not (as we are slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say), "Let us do evil, that good may come?" Those who say so are justly condemned.

They have all turned aside. They have together become unprofitable. There is no one who does good, no, not, so much as one."

Therefore the law indeed is holy, and the commandment holy, and righteous, and good.

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.

But if what I don't desire, that I do, I consent to the law that it is good.

For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but I don't find it doing that which is good.

For the good which I desire, I don't do; but the evil which I don't desire, that I practice.

I find then the law, that, to me, while I desire to do good, evil is present.

We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.

For being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him who calls,

And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!"

For if you were cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree, how much more will these, which are the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?

Concerning the Good News, they are enemies for your sake. But concerning the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sake.

Don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil. Cling to that which is good.

Don't be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with 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,

for he is a servant of God to you for good. But if you do that which is evil, be afraid, for he doesn't bear the sword in vain; for he is a servant of God, an avenger for wrath to him who does evil.

Then don't let your good be slandered,

It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, nor do anything by which your brother stumbles, is offended, or is made weak.

Let each one of us please his neighbor for that which is good, to be building him up.

that I should be a servant of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, serving as a priest the Good News of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be made acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of God's Spirit; so that from Jerusalem, and around as far as to Illyricum, I have fully preached the Good News of Christ;

yes, making it my aim to preach the Good News, not where Christ was already named, that I might not build on another's foundation.

For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are at Jerusalem.

Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in fleshly things.

I know that, when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of the Good News of Christ.

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.

(14:24) Now to him who is able to establish you according to my Good News and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which has been kept secret through long ages,
