Goodness

The word goodness is a very unique Greek word that is found only in the Bible and not in the classical Greek language. It is used to describe God’s character of being blameless, upright, pure, righteous and generous. Contextually for us, it is a Spirit-created moral excellence. It not only encompasses kindness as acts of love, but reflects the complete character of God who does good things for us even if we don’t think it is good.
