The bible says there is no good Person! , i know it says no one is perfect!! but not being perfect that doesnt make you bad
Anyway, a good human is the one who follows his instincts and listen to his intoation when it tells him to Go or to Stop, and you will never be able to hear this voice until you have full faith of God " regardless your religion"
Faith in God , gives you the strength always to fight your fears and mistakes and it leads you to the happiness alot of people are missing. Be pure inside out and you will be the best person

The effort and energy a person has made during a lifetime to acquire "moral virtues" and the courage to put them into "action" is what makes him a good person.
I gave a proof for this statement in your question on "what makes a person evil".

There is no good man and the Bible says so.
Proverbs 20:6 Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?
Proverbs 28:21 To have respect of persons is not good: for for a piece of bread that man will transgress.
Ecclesiastes 7:20 For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.
Mark 10: 17And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?
18And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.
Having said that a man can be prefect but not good, because the Bible commands us to be perfect;Genesis 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
Genesis 17:1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.
1 Kings 8:61 Let your heart therefore be perfect with the LORD our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments, as at this day.
1 Kings 11:4 For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.
1 Kings 15:14 But the high places were not removed: nevertheless Asa's heart was perfect with the LORD all his days.
Here is Jesus commanding us to be perfect but any that say you cannot be perfect is calling Jesus a lier.Matthew 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

in God's eyes?
the changing of the person's sinful nature
by being born again by the blood of Jesus Christ.
John 3: The Words of Jesus Christ (God in the flesh)
3. "Verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God."
4. Nicodemus saith unto Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?"
5. Jesus answered, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God."
6. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again."
16. "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
18. He that believeth on Him is not condemned; but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

A persons true "goodness" is beyond the concept of good and bad.

Society's Standards define that which is good. A person who is good upholds these standards when the time comes to make a decision.

basically, a good person is an honest person-you may make someone happy or hurt somebody,as long as you're honest enough-then you're a good person-honest to yourself and honest to everybody-my 'GOOD LORD,THE ALMIGHTY GOD through HIS SON JESUS' will surely reward you for that-for being a good and honest person-and don't forget,do unto others what you would want them to do unto you,n that will make you good person, alright? ok!

A person is good when they do what they believe to be in the long-term best interest of humanity without needing to be coerced or bribed to do it, even if the long-term best interest of humanity is not in the long-term best interest of that person.
