Being perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect is saying there is no limit. For as long as we are on this earth, it is not likely we are going to be perfect as our heavenly Father is. Perfection will be credited to our record; but, perfection will never show up in our relationship with our self and other people.
However, Jesus is telling us to strive for that perfection. No matter how hard we try, we will never hit the ceiling. No matter how much we pray and put our complete faith, trust, reliance, and dependency on God, we will never reach the top. Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect is giving us Jesus’ full permission to do whatever it takes to shoot for the highest heights, to break all records, to press on to the high call of God. |
Phil 3:10-14 (NIV) I want to know Christ and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in His sufferings, becoming like Him in His death, and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.
Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. |
