Mark 10:18 New English Translation (NET Bible)

18 Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.

If

If the best of us are like the rest of us

then the best in us is in the rest of us

Good, better and best seem to be phrases of comparison.

Good should be good enough so why dwell on the “best”?

Are things than ever “better” if sublime will bring confusion?

and prove the separation of a few from the better than the rest?

Excellency we call the critters who are born in exultation.

Maybe the parents were nice folks or maybe they were rats.

If we are from whom we came we will inherit degradation

and somewhere in the line of things may turn us into “crap”.

For sin dwells in all of us and it makes us very filthy.

It keeps us from achieving the simple just and better good.

So sublime in being will take more than mankind can offer

It takes “All” of The Son of God and that’s well understood.
