28. God / A. Divine Nature / 6. Divine Morality / c. God is the good

6291	No one is good except God [Jesus]
	Full Idea: Why callest thou me good? There is none good but one, that is, God.
	From: Jesus (reports [c.32]), quoted by St Matthew - 01: Gospel of St Matthew 19.17
	A reaction: This remark raises the problem that if God is good, there must be some separate moral standard by which he can be judged good. What is that standard? It is related to the problem of whether Plato's Form of the Beautiful is itself beautiful.
