Watchmen if you have that much power of God in you. You might want to try running for pope or we might want to prepare for the second coming.
It is not possible to be perfect. Not even Jesus was perfect. He had his doubts as anyone else (Oh god why hast thou forsaken me?)
After all if God knows your every thought he knows those quick thoughts that we can't help but thinking when beautiful women walk by, a brand new ferrari looks pleasant or if we just covet a bit of strawberry cake from our neighbour.
It is impossible to not have those thoughs.
We can repress them but that doesn't make us perfect. After all virtues are the human emotion that lets us overcome our obstacles despite their presence.
If you know no fear then you can't show courage.

You miss the point, when He said that it was because He became an abomination and a curse because as He suffered God's wrath for our sins he justified the wicked (believers). He also died to save us from ourselves that we may no longer live in sin after being justified by faith. It's Christ living through us that we walk in (His)righteousness not our own for we are dead.
Rom 3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law.
Matthew 5:48 Therefore be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.
Paul said,
1Cor 11:1 Imitate me, as I imitate Christ.
I'm by no means a mature tree yet but as one growing I believe in the gospel.
A good tree will not bear bad fruit nor a bad tree bear good fruit.
through santification we will begin to share the mind and not just the spirit of Christ.
It's not as much what we do as a Christian but who we are I think.
Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the pure of heart, for they shall see God.
By no means are we to boast of ourselves as righteous but of the Righteousness of Christ.

Jesus was indeed sinnless, and through the empowerment of the Holy spirit we can become sinnless as well. Further the Pope? I doubt He is even getting into Heaven muchlless become perfected by God. Lastly you are right, we all need to start getting ready for the 2nd coming and during the tribulation God is going to weed out the corrupt with in the church so you better start dying to self now before it is to late.
Being distgusted by God's truth, and disagreeing with me are not the same thing, but when someone speaks the truth of God and it disgust you then you are doing both.
#1 Disagreeing with said person.
#2 Being disgusted by God's true word.
It is sad so many are blind to the truth God has placed in His word, about the way we should conduct ourselves, and even sadder that people are disgusted by those that speak His truth, but of course Jesus said it would be so even within the ''church'' especially in the last days.

What if watchmen is someone sent by God, shouldn't we be careful what we say? God's prophets were not often accepted gladly by His own people who they came to.
Lindqvuist if you were half the person watchmen appears to be and listen to what he is saying, then your spiritual status in your profile would not read 'unsure' but 'saved'. I always think it's strange when people on shaky foundations determines who and who isn't doing what God wants them to do.
