'What is Good' in the Bible
To the ones who continue doing what is good and who look for glory, honor and immortal life [God will give] never ending life.
But [He will bring] glory, honor and peace upon every person who does what is good; upon the Jews first, then also upon the Greeks,
So, I find this principle [at work]: [Although] I want to do what is good, evil is [always] present [and often wins out].
For [our] rulers are not a threat to [the person doing] a good deed, but to [the person doing] an evil one. So, do you want to avoid having to be afraid of the authorities? Then do what is good and you will be commended by them [generally].
For everyone has heard about your obedience [to the truth], and [because of this], I am very happy over you. But I want you to be wise about what is good and innocent about what is evil.
