In Mark 10, we study Jesus’ teachings on marriage and divorce, leading to the story of the rich young ruler who calls Christ good.
Through His submission to the will of the Father, His endurance of challenges and mockery, and His perfect, sinless life, Jesus proved that He is good. He was tempted by Satan and tested by the Pharisees, yet He never faltered or failed.
We, too, call Him good, recognizing that only God is truly good.
