Jesus had trouble in his own hometown, too.

As you correctly indicated, people have a hard time understanding the concept of good works are not a balancing act for our hurtful thoughts and harmful acts, "so that no one can boast." (As I understand it, that was part of Lucifer's problem.)

I mean, who wants snooty people as their forever neighbors?!

Finally, the Bible has some examples of righteous people, but they are few and far between. One of their characteristics is foundational: they all start with believing God.
