Re: In What Way Is God Complete?
Also consider,
If "telios" means be fully developed and growing into godliness would not a fully developed, godly Christian be able to cease from sin?
Note how Peter addresses NEW BORN BABES in Christ.
Wherefore laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envies, and all evil speakings,
As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:
The apostle expected the BABES to lay aside ALL malice, ALL guile, hypocrisy, envy, and ALL evil speakings.
Now if the baby Christian is supposed to do THESE THINGS would it not be safe to assume a fully developed Son Of God would be able to put sin behind him or her self?
