Apologetics: Genesis 7.1

Text

People are righteous.

And Jehovah said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. (Genesis 7.1)

There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and turned away from evil. (Job 1:1)

And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless. (Luke 1.16)

No one is righteous.

They are all gone aside; they are together become filthy; There is none that doeth good, no, not one. (Psalms 14:3)

As it is written, "There is none righteous, no, not one;" (Romans 3:10)

For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God; (Romans 3:23)

Problem

Is anyone perfect or not?
