Mark 10

"17 Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?” 18 So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. "


The humility of Jesus is something worth our learning from. Even though He is a manifestation of God, however, in the flesh He exalts the Father above. This shows us that, not even Jesus is to be considered good. There is only one who is good, and that is the God in spirit. Therefore, no one should be so proud as to boast of themselves, because even Jesus did not when He has every reason to boast. On the contrary, we should all boast of God and give credit and glory to him; because without him, we are nothing.
