Are you perfect? If not, you need the Lord Jesus Christ, the only perfect one in all human history, who was crucified for our sins and rose again the third day from the grave to everlasting life as your Lord and Saviour. All other religion and faith is vain and hopeless.

No one can honestly answer that in the affirmative.

Had to laugh reading title.

I have an aunt who always says “because I’m perfect!”

she could use prayer. 80yrs old, knows of God but shunned by her church 50yrs ago. Bitterness/unforgiveness/pride now what she leans on instead of salvation through Jesus. I have a sister similar situation. But one by one the rest of us who have accepted Jesus as savior are making Him LORD and praying for the rest of family to come along :)

reading the article now. Thanks for posting.

Some of us are closer to perfection than others but none of us is perfect.

This is not a criticism but why would you post this under “News/Activism” ?

By sheer grace I don’t have to be perfect because I am being made perfect in Him.

“For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.”
—2 Corinthians 5:21

“To suppose that whatever God requireth of us that we have power of ourselves to do, is to make the cross and grace of Jesus Christ of none effect.”
—John Owen

It’s like humility. As soon as you say you are then you’re not.

God made us in his image, so we’re all perfect.
