There is no one that is "good" on their own accord.

Ecc 7:20 "Indeed, there is not a righteous man on earth who continually does good and who never sins."

Rom 3:23 "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,"

"Good people" is only a human evaluation of the comparative behavior of one group as opposed to another. It is NOT a standard or measurement established by God.

Nobody is 'saved' and then 'lost'! Instead, ALL are 'lost' ("sinned and fallen short of the glory of God"). However, ALL have every day of an entire earthly lifetime to take advantage of the opportunity to be 'saved' to eternal life (with God), through Jesus Christ.

"Lost people" are those who have not yet been 'saved.' Lost only becomes permanent when one passes through this entire lifetime and dies in that 'unsaved' condition.

Lost people have not found themselves.

If one finds oneself, one also has opened the pathway to knowing the Creator and finding All.

Was Paul considered a 'good' [ relatively speaking of course] person ?______

At 1st Cor. 9 vs 26,27 Paul was concerned that he might end up as a castaway.

If a person looses their faith they can be 'lost'. - Hebrews 6 vs 4-6

Default Don't Have To Be A Christian To Be Loving ?

1 Peter 3:3 doesn't require a loving heart just obedience to have modest attire.

John 3:5 doesn't require a loving heart just obedience to be water baptised to be born again.

1 Timothy 6 doesn't require a loving heart just obedience to live a modest lifestyle.

James 5:20 doesn't require a loving heart just obedience to correct people with the bible.

etc, etc., etc.
