that's rather a pedantic take on it. Jesus rebuked the man who
addressed him with the title "Good Teacher," because Jesus
recognized not himself but his Father to be the standard of goodness.
(Mark 10:17, 18) However, to measure up to what people generally mean
when they say that someone is good, Jesus surely must have been
truthful. Indeed, even his enemies acknowledged that he was. (Mark
12:14) Likely the young man used "good" as a title, so Jesus let
him know that such a title belongs to God alone.

Also, consider that Jesus was fully aware of the story of Job when God
called him "blameless" so Christ was not contradicting that.

The more important point is that Jesus separated himslef from God,
which he is not.

And His will is that all men be saved. 1 Tim 2:4. SO how is this will
accomplished?

Then how do you avoid the conclusion that His word does _not_ accomplish His
will? For 1 TIm 2:4 _clearly_ states that His will is that all be saved.

Recall:

who desires all men to be saved and to come
to the knowledge of the truth. (1Ti 2:4 RSVA)

And don't be fooled by the RSV use of 'desire' here. The word is QELEI, which
means 'will'. For in God, there can be no distinction between 'will' and
'desire'.
