That's what makes you perfect...

35. Now, but these worshippers who came under the shadow, could never be made perfect. Let's dwell on that word there. Never... Were offered year after year, continually, make the comer unto perfect. I want you let... Haven't you heard many times the people say, "Oh, there's none perfect." That's right. You can't be perfect in the sight of your fellow man. But you've got to be perfect or you'll never go to
heaven. That's right.
The Bible said, Jesus speaking in the beatitudes, Matthew, said, "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect." Then you've got to be just as perfect as God is, or you're lost. Now, how you going to do it? See? Now, one little mistake and you're lost. One little flap of the eye and you're gone; 'cause nothing can enter in to those places but perfect.

36. God put Satan up there one time as an angel, which he was, the son of the morning. And he took the good things of God and perverted them into evil. God's sure that nothing will enter there that'll ever do it again. See?
Now, you've got to be perfect. Jesus said, "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect." Now, how you going to be when you're continually sinning, when you're continually doing what's wrong?
Now, this will kinda put a little kink in the legalist. But notice, it isn't what you do; it's what God has done. It's not what you do; it's what He done. See? You can't be perfect. You can't be in yourself. But in Christ, you are perfected. You're not trusting in your own good works, or your own church you belong to, but you're trusting in the shed Blood of the Lord Jesus. There you are. That's what makes you perfect. There's what anchors your faith.
