76 XX | we must acknowledge the good sense of this. But God's
77 XXI | in our own power, to live good lives and by all means to
78 XXI | is our business to lead a good life, and that God asks
79 XXI | shewed thee, O man, what is good? What doth the Lord require

83 XXI | to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first and also
84 XXI | His being really just and good. If they object to this,
85 XXI | invite them to show how the good and just God, or the just
86 XXI | regard Him as both just and good, let us consider how the
87 XXI | let us consider how the good and just God could harden

102 XXI | that to will that which is good and run after that which

105 XXI | said that if willing the good and running after the good
106 XXI | good and running after the good is a thing indifferent,

114 XXI | this to say: If they make good their contention that from

151 XXV | things work together for good, the reason is that they
152 XXV | uphold the words, "Well done, good and faithful servant: thou
153 XXVI | the question of things "good"and "evil"; that they partly
154 XXVI | say, who will show us the good things?" 621~~~~~~1. Seeing

158 XXVI | evil," some affirming that good things and the contrary
159 XXVI | as they declare, being a good thing, trouble an evil thing;
160 XXVI | while others identify "good" and "evil" with things
161 XXVI | only, for they say that good 624things are the virtues
162 XXVI | views, and tell us that good and evil things partly depend
163 XXVI | to learn what are really good things, cry out with the
164 XXVI | psalmist, "Who will show us the good things?" (see n. 621)That
165 XXVI(624)| Making happiness = internal good, "living well and doing
166 XXVI | things?" (see n. 621)That the good things naturally depend
167 XXVI | For it says that a man is good, supposing him to hear the
168 XXVI | the sentence, "Well done, good and faithful servant; thou
169 XXVI | Lord." 625And that is also good which proceedeth from the
170 XXVI | which proceedeth from the good man, out of his heart, as
171 XXVI | as the Saviour says, "The good man out of the good treasure
172 XXVI | The good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth
173 XXVI | bringeth forth that which is good." 626And, in general, every
174 XXVI | general, every fruit of a good tree, because it depends
175 XXVI | man's own efforts, is a good thing: such as love, peace,
176 XXVI | Christ, there is a something good and evil, and we must still
177 XXVI | what is not, could not be good and evil; for they think
178 XXVI | for they think that some good things pertain to the soul,
179 XXVI | regards externals, wealth, good birth and reputation, or
180 XXVI | there are three kinds of good things, and three of evil;
181 XXVI | that virtues and vices are "good" and "evil," according to
182 XXVI | and things external, are good or evil. And as regards
183 XXVI | require no illustrations of good things which are the objects
184 XXVI | will adduce instances of good things which are bodily
185 XXVI | bodily strength, of course, a good thing. The passage stands
186 XXVI | those who will have it that good and evil things are bodily
187 XXVI | deliverance from them to be a good thing. Nay, the Apostles
188 XXVI | of what they did brought good things to men and freed
189 XXVI | thing, pleasure must be a good one. ~4. The foregoing clearly
190 XXVI | there being three kinds of good things and three of evil
191 XXVI | what our opponents consider good things, were the lot of
192 XXVI | there are three kinds of good and three kinds of evil,
193 XXVI | things work together for good to those who love God, to
194 XXVI | Scriptures are considered "good." For the story of many
195 XXVI | these passages we have the good things which shall be given
196 XXVI | these things are called "good," we must understand that
197 XXVI | that they are not the final good things of the healing art,
198 XXVI | bodily health is the final good. Similarly, if we must keep
199 XXVI | bodily and external, the good actions will not be good
200 XXVI | good actions will not be good as ends in themselves, but
201 XXVI | were content to say that "good" things and "evil" things,
202 XXVI | We must now say what the good things are which do not
203 XXVI(655)| Aristotle, "combines the good, the noble, the pleasurable;
204 XXVI | the edifice, is one of the good things which do not depend

206 XXVI | supply of rain: so the "good thing" of the rational creature

208 XXVI | also that having become good and upright we may abide
209 XXVI | in the acquisition of the good things, he says that the

212 XXVI | say "Who will show us the good things?" what the good things
213 XXVI | the good things?" what the good things are, and, consequently,
214 XXVI | prayers we may acquire the good things, and repel the evil
215 XXVI | opinions applying the terms "good" and "evil" to bodily things,
