perfection can never be reached,you could never do anything wrong.this is in human terms.can never be done.also imperfection,can never be reached in human terms.so we either strive for perfect,or inperfect.this is our journey.Jesus is our salvation that makes you good with God,who is truely good.without Jesus you can never get to God who is in heaven.

The new inner man you recieve when you are born again is perfect and will not sin. The problem is more of a soul problem or of renewing your mind and it's thoughts.

Tell me about it.

We are all imperfect insofar as we are not God. God is perfect. We can never be God. Thus, we can never be perfect, though our actions may be perfect insofar as our actions are in accordance with God's Will.

And yet we know our inner man is Christlike:

1Jn 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

Eph 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
