With the thread that perfect obedience to God is a heresy, I thought I would search out some of the things Paul said about it.
Rom 3:20-22..." Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.
21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe:"
I don't consider that heretical.
I have faith that his words are true, so the righteousness of God can be mine through that faith !
Rom 12:1..."I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service."
I don't consider that heretical.
I have 66 more verses with more commands and exhortations to purity, righteousness, and perfection.
Besides the ones from Paul, I also have 34 more from the other apostles that agree with Paul.
We can be perfectly sinless, here on earth.
