“48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

“I know many who are anti LDS have trouble with verse 48 which they deem impossible!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Resty,

Do you even understand the context of this passage?

Who Jesus is speaking to.
How this fits into this section of Matthew?
Who Matthew was written to?
What the main message of Matthew is?

From your post, it seems clear you are oblivious to all of that and more. If you understood it, you would not be making the point you are trying to use if for.

best,
ampu
