No, it doesn't.
"My Kingdom is not of this world."

Ok.

 

[Integrity]

God is omnipotent. He is omniscient. But it's extremely arrogant and narcissistic to think God is with me in literally everything I do.

Ok.

If that is what you believe, that is what you believe.

people including religious people struggle to be honest with themselves. ive noticed it again recently.

The Crucifixion of Julian Assange

This is a sermon I gave on Sunday Aug. 20 in Oslo, Norway at Kulturkirken Jakob (St. James Church of Culture). Actor and film director Liv Ullmann read the scripture passages.

You'll find that in every person, not just religious people. We are all sinful/flawed by nature

You will not find that in the person of Christ, Christ is the example, it is He alone I seek to follow!

Sorry for the double up. Technical difficulties.

Of course you will find it. Do you think you never sin or have flaws anymore? It's the very reason Jesus was sent to earth to carve a path back to Him. Obviously after you are saved you seek to follow Him, but to say you won't be sinful anymore is just foolish

Are you to seek to follow Jesus‘s perfect example as a self professed follower of His?

 

[BrownFlush]

Only one place I know of where one can know that he 1) was perfect 2) what his example was.

 

[tourists24]

Are you to seek to follow Jesus‘s perfect example as a self professed follower of His?

Oh no denying that you should always strive to live the life that Jesus did and is, but do you disagree that we will never actually achieve His perfection?

 

[BrownFlush]

Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect. -Matt. 5:48
And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.-James 1:4

Only possible with grace.

Yes.

 

[tourists24]

Yes.

So you're perfect because you are guided by the holy spirit? Even if you aren't, please tell me anyone that is or was besides Jesus

No. But my perfection Is in Christ alone .

I don’t know of anyone.

So you should seek Christ’s perfection in all you do correct?

It's not you that is perfect. It's His grace that allows you to be saved and live your life for Him.

He is perfection. We are not and need His grace. But even with that we will still commit sin and are flawed, which is why we always need Him to guide us and forgive us when we mess up

Should our desire be to seek Christ’s perfection?

Seek it but you'll never achieve it. What matters is how you try.
