BIGGER THAN A SET OF RULES

BIGGER THAN A SET OF RULES


Do you want to
BE PERFECT? Well there
Is NO such thing
As perfect
In this world?


Just God OUR FATHER
And Jesus Christ=PERFECT
IN LOVE


“So BE PERFECT-
Just as your heavenly FATHER
Is PERFECT” Matthew 5:48


It would be EASIER
To be perfect=IF it meant
Just following
A set of rules=
Like the TEN COMMANDMENTS


But GOD'S PERFECTION
Is so much BIGER
Than a SET OF RULES


What do we
Really KNOW about God?


We know
GOD IS LOVE=
God is compassion


And he is BIGGER
Than a set of RULES=
Or any BOX
You can put him into


God is perfect=and he
Is full of
GRACE AND PRESENCE


“You will
Keep in PERFECT PEACE
Those whose minds


Are stead fast
Because they trust in you” Isaiah 26:3


“BE PERFECT therefore
As your heavenly Father
IS PERFECT” Matthew 5:48


“Do not conform
To the pattern
Of this world


But be transformed
By the renewing
Of your mind


Then you will be able
To test and approve
What God's will is--------


His good-pleasing
And PERFECT WILL” Romans 12:2


Unfortunately-for us human beings
We are full
OF IMPERFECTIONS


Physically-mentally=spiritually=
In in EVERY which way
All we can do=IS LOVE
As much as we can
Just like God the FATHER=
And Jesus – his SON


We will NEVER BE
Perfect in love either=
But that is God is=IS LOVE=
And we can all love
AS MUCH as we can


God is the COMMUNION
Of persons=the Father-Son-
And HOLY SPIRIT=
He is ALL MERCIFUL=
He is perfect!


“Every good and PERFECT GIFT
Is from above=
Coming down
From the Father


Of heavenly lights
Who does not change
Like the shifting shadows” James 1:17


So KEEP the commandments=
As BEST as you can-
But keep in mind
You will never be perfect


For God is
BIGGER THAN
A SET OF RULES


In Jesus' name=and in the name of our EVER PERFECT FATHER!
