This relates to my previous question asked by myself posted back in September. I asked if "God was the perfect being?"...And I got the answer from the Bible, from Jesus Himself :)
He says "Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect."- Matt 5:48
So does that mean we can be perfect? I think so. Otherwise why would He even bother saying that. Either its interpreted wrong or there is some truth in it. But we should ask ourselves, perfect in what? In what we do and what we say? In how we feel? Can we achieve it?
We humans are in this world living our lives. I know its quiet hard to survive. Maybe this would encourage someone or at least me :) to be "perfect".I'm constantly trying, but I fail miserably. I fall on my face. Maybe this is how its achieved. I don't know. But again I'm confused by it. What defines perfect? Who sets the benchmark?
Since the Bible says God is perfect. I can look at him and learn. But have I known God? or lets put it this way..How hard did I try to know God? The Bible teaches..that God is loving, caring, always there..that He gets angry, upset, disgusted etc..so I guess, all these should be in a perfect person.
These all seems so strange and difficult to comprehend for me...don't know why am I even thinking/reasoning this way..hehe
