I have used a green apple and a red apple to illustrate that both are perfect in the stage of development they are at. The same can be said of Christians. We are given a perfect standing with God in Jesus Christ when we are born into the family of God. We are all at different stages in our spiritual development. The reason we are given Christ's garment of righteousness to wear is that ours will never be adequate no matter how long we live for God. It is my observation that most saints have seasons in life when they are more fruitful. The righteous, peace, and joy that characterizes the Christian and reflects the kingdom of God has been imparted to us. However, there are times and circumstances that tend to suppress the manifestation of these, but it's only temporary.
