Greetings,
The definition of being perfect when I speak of it, is about living according to the direction of Jah.
So whatever Jah tell I and I to do, I and I do it. This way of life can't make a man feel higher than another, because Jesus Christ never taught I and I about being higher than others. And the example of Jesus Christ is the example of Jah. If we have that kind of thinking of being higher than others, then we are not living by Jah direction.
I know that perfection in the ways of Jah can be attained, and I know that the people of the world don't live this way, not even one lives so. But it is a choice that I and I can make. Just because we live a certain way today, doesn't mean that we can't live a different way tomorrow.
Jah will correct I until I listen to and heed all his words. And this will happen only because I have faith in Jah that Jah will do this. If I didn't have faith, it would be impossible.
Brother Jahphet, the I said,
-------------------------------
My bible do not tell me to be perfect, man can not make himself perfect. Only Jah can do so, because he is the ONLY perfect!
-------------------------------
I agree that only Jah can make I and I perfect, but I don't agree that the bible doesn't tell I and I to be perfect. There are so many places in the old testament where the bible tell I and I directly to be perfect. And Jesus Christ also told I and I many times to be perfect. The I said,
-------------------------------
Yeshuah told us to be perfect like his father, as you said.
But why did he say so? Maybe he just wanted to show dem people that them must follow Jah again?
-------------------------------
If the people follow Jah again, then their ways will be perfect. Christ told I and I to be perfect, so that I and I would be perfect. Not so that I and I would be less than perfect. If this was so, then he would have told I and I to be less. But Christ never spoke about less, he only spoke about Jah way.
Jah Guidance,
