Be Ye therefore Perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is Perfect.” (Matt 5:43-48) It should be quite obvious that he’s not speaking of perfection of the “flesh”, since God our Father is “Spirit”, thus if we are to be perfect as HE, our concentration should then be on the INWARD and not the OUTWARD.

Interesting some people don't list sources.
If someone was God, they wouldn't need to list their sources.

A) Mat 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. B) Since doing and teaching the commandments of God is good, then I say that God wants us to be great in His sight/ great in the kingdom of heaven. He doesn't want us to give in to others misconceived ideas. He wants us to be loyal to Him. Brad
