What does the Bible say about perfection?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that God requires absolute perfection for salvation, which is fulfilled in Jesus Christ.

In the Scriptures, God requires nothing less than absolute perfection to be accepted. This is evident from the fact that God's holiness cannot tolerate sin, as Habakkuk 1:13 states, "Your eyes are too pure to look upon evil". This is why the Lord Jesus Christ, as our perfect Savior, fulfills the law's demands on our behalf, allowing us to stand perfect before God. He is described as the perfect sacrifice who magnifies the law, satisfying all of God's requirements for those who believe in Him.
