But how good are we really??

What is good to me, lies not in simply refraining from evil, but instead lies in the positive things we do, in particular for others (and not just our families).



Well, let's not over generalize on the not killing aspect. Any believer failing to off an Amalekite is, by definition, not good.

God would be within His rights to blot out any remembrance of anyone offering succor or alms to an Amalekite, let alone allowing one to live.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
