"learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow." (Isaiah 1:17)
No one has to learn how to be bad. We come forth from the womb speaking lies. To do good, on the other hand, takes some work.
First of all, we must learn what God declares is GOOD by reading His word. Our opinions of good/evil or right/wrong do not matter. God is the ultimate moral authority.
Then, we must learn what is good by practicing what is good. We must experience for ourselves, as disciples of Christ, what it truly means to walk in the steps of Jesus.
Jesus taught us by example to "do the will of the Father." We must put our needs and wants to the side and look to the needs of others.
