God REQUIRES "perfection"?? Lol. That's a good one. To enter heaven, yes, God DOES require perfection.
Laugh in mockery and derision, if you will.
But you mock Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit who inspired Scripture.
Matthew 5:48 You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
You SURE you really want to go there?
Who taught you that God REQUIRES 100% perfection?
Um..... Jesus?
I never heard such nonsense in my life.
Well, if you read Scripture, you would have but I can't say as I am surprised.

I forgot to mention, if I was ever tempted to swim the Tiber, which I would never do, there is a famous guy waiting in the wings, with a big shovel, to beat me severely about the head and shoulders, just to get my attention, and stop me from doing it. He just wants to keep me out of Hell. 🔥 I just can't remember his name. 😆😄😇

We are perfected in Christ so you're all correct.
In THIS life we can none of us be perfect, but Christ's blood washes us clean and perfects us at the point of death .. when we are released from this corruptible and put on incorruptible.

Just got to your post.
Thanks, pretty similar to what was composing in my mind.
You nailed it.
