God's necessary perfect goodness(as used in theology and philosophy of religion): The idea that God must be perfectly good in every possible situation—it's not just that God happens to be good, but that God couldn't be anything other than good.
compatibilism/compatibilists(as used in metaphysics and philosophy of free will): The philosophical position that free will and determinism (the idea that everything is predetermined) can both be true at the same time—you can be free even if your actions are caused.
