Welcome to the club. I thought I was the only one ...
How so?
Are you saying here due to now being in Christ, or saying due to you having received and walking in the ;second blessing?"

All I know is that its hard to be humble when your perfect in every way, I can't wait to look in the mirror, cause I get better lookin each day, to know me is to love me, its hard to be humble, but I'm doin the best that I can. :saint:

Thank God!
Not perfect, but being perfected each day in discipleship.
I intend to make great progress toward perfection (indirectly, through the disciplines and the grace of God) so that on the Final Day I won't have that far to go.
My focus is not actually becoming perfect (complete), but on cooperating with God in the advance of the His Kingdom which will result in those changes in me.

Here is your "Silly" response and answer! Check out the comment on page 3 - "All I know is that its hard to be humble when your perfect in every way ...."
It's difficult to claim perfection when you don't know the difference between "you're" and "your."

IMO, your just jealous :tongue3:
Perfect in KJV English means to be full grown--an adult, not a child, juvenile or novice. It is derived from the concept of having the whole armor of a soldier, the whole ensemble, from head to feet--in the spiritual sense: the whole armor of God.
The fiery darts of the Wicked One can get through our armor if we do not keep it maintained with daily spiritual activity.
Perfect does not mean sinless perfection. There is a lot of confusion regarding salvation and sanctification. What perfection might mean is part of the confusion.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
