you said
""Clearly there must be a way to be perfect as our heaven Father is perfect, or Jesus wouldn't have commanded it.""
so I ask
I there anyone (adult) living today who is perfect in deed and thought (the context of Matthew 5)
Clearly, you must think there is: so who is it?
back up your claim
nor do you want to know the truth of it, or you'd check the meaning of that word.I wouldn't know because I can't prove it. But neither can you disprove it.
His saints or those made up by the rcc? you aren't looking to those who are His saints in scripture.I look to the lives of the saints.
what do you mean by those? give examples of them. are they taught by the rcc?Many of them had extraordinary gifts given to them by God: gifts of bilocation, prophecy, visions, reading hearts,etc.
look it up and you might get an idea of how one reaches that place in life.I believe that most if not all reached perfection in their lives.
have you kept all the commandments?Matt 9:24
Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
when will you do that part?
