Be Perfect


Jesus commanded us to be perfect. We read in Matthew 5:48 "Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.”
This is not a new commandment. We read in Deuteronomy 18:13 “You must be blameless before the LORD your God.”
We must not compare ourselves to others. We must compare ourselves to the standard of God, the standard that was demonstrated
by Jesus Christ, because He came and He proved that it is possible for flesh and blood to be perfect, to do the will of God.
If we are not blameless before God we will not enter the kingdom of Heaven. We must repent, obey Jesus and be perfect if we want to enter into the kingdom of God.
May Jesus bless you.
