Logic: What is Good? What does Good Mean? (Gen 1:31)


1. Among all English words, "good" is one word that is impossible to define. Why? How do you determine what is good?




2. Examine Genesis 1. What is it about Creation that God calls good? Why the moral value?




3. Contrast this to what Jesus says about people: And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone (Mark 10:18; Luke 18:19; Matt 19:17). Does this contradict the goodness of God's creation of man?




4. Socrates' Euthyphro Dilemma: Is an act good because God commands it? Or does God command an act because it's good?




5. Does God restore the moral goodness of Creation? If so, how?
