If Jesus was God why did he tell the man who called him “good master” not to call him “good” (Mark 10:17-18) because accordingly, there is none good but his God in Heaven alone.
y Very simple: if you read the verse, Jesus doesn't tell the person asking, 'don't call me good'. He simply says, 'Why Why do you call me good'.
Then He adds, 'only God is good'.
The questioner was a Jew. Jesus simply meant to the Jew that if he (the Jew) thought that Jesus is good, then he would have to accept that Jesus is God, for only God is good.
