The Bible also says this....

“Be you therefore perfect, as also your heavenly Father is perfect. “(Matt 5:28)

The Bible does not say that man can redeem himself or be a God. We are to humble ourselves to follow the will of God and embrace His will for us

Not to be Holier than thou... It’s Matthew 5:48 :>) The other verse had something to do with adultery.

I agree. That is part of the being perfect. Something we will never attain until God calls us home. But we can work at it :>)
