A MAN CAN BE PERFECT!!!
Certainly. A man can be perfect. Is this perfectionism? I don't do isms, but I know I read, ''Be perfect, as your father in heaven is perfect.''
And so, I tried, and failed. Yes, ''I'' tried, and failed. So I said, Lord, those commands are too many, I cannot keep them all. How could I ever be like you, I know you kept them ALL perfectly.
Then the Lord had mercy on me, and forgave me of my sins. And he said, ''take up your cross and follow me.'' Jesus wasn't dead carrying his cross, it was only when he was nailed to the cross that his flesh died. Where are we carrying our cross to? We are carrying our cross to Calvary also, so that we can be crucified with Jesus Christ. And there is also the same hope of resurrection from the dead. If the same Spirit is in you which was in Christ, that same Spirit will raise you also from the dead.
May his will be done in heaven, as it is in earth. To keep us from temptation and deliver us from evil, for his glory and honor and power!! AMEN!!
It is Christ who works IN YOU, to shape you into that image. So as Jesus works, those who have Him, IN them cease from work. They enter into his rest, into that door of rest.
If a man chooses, and I do say CHOOSES to not bear his cross, but to look back to Sodom, he is not fit.
BE PERFECT AS YOUR FATHER IN HEAVEN IS PERFECT
May Jesus bless you.
