Goodness is the opposite of badness, I suppose. There is a line, a distinction. Jesus sent his disciples out from village to village to do good. Jesus involved his disciples in meeting people’s needs, from healing to feeding. But there are those who reject the goodness of God. That rejection does not diminish the inherent goodness of the character of God. God is righteous and just, his purposes are good. As Jesus instructed His disciples to stand for good and walk away from bad, I am sure they saw that in the face of Jesus there is goodness.
