Most of us think we are generally good. The problem with that is under God’s standard none of us are considered good. We are all guilty of sin. The good news is Jesus is God’s moral standard of good and His goodness is credited to us as righteousness. All we have to do is accept it. Here
‘As it is written: “There is no one righteous, not even one;’
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death. For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
