In the great things as well as the small things you choose according to what seems good to you, and your choice is going to determine whether you are a good or bad person. If the perfect Son of God is unattractive to you, then obviously you are an unattractive person. If the perfect Son of God is irresistible to you, then you are a good person, because a good person, by definition, is a person who is inclined to the good, and the good is in Jesus Christ, the divine and perfect Son of God. If you are repelled by Him, you are a bad person because you are repelled by the quintessence of the good. What attracts you must be the rejection of what is good. A person who is attracted by that which is evil and repelled by that which is good is an evil person.
