How do we know that the Lord is good?

The goodness of the Lord can be understood through both Scripture and the incarnation of Christ. God is described as 'essentially, infinitely, perfectly, immutably, and solely good.' This goodness is demonstrated not just abstractly but through His actions and ultimate revelation in Jesus Christ, who embodies God's love and righteousness. As believers come to understand Christ's life, death, and resurrection, they gain insight into the depth of God's goodness and grace, confirming the truth that 'there is none good except God.' This relational understanding is fundamental for Christians living in faith.
