Note that his counsel to "be perfect" in the ancient Greek carries the meaning to "be what you ought to be". Let's not get discouraged if we are not yet Godly. Jesus Christ will make that happen through his grace. He says, "Come, Follow Me." Let's do what we can and turn to him.
This is one of the things we've been ponderizing this week from the Come, Follow Me reading.
Be perfect,
be of good comfort,
be of one mind,
live in peace;
and
the God of love and peace
shall be with you
2 Corinthians 13:11
