<div class="head">In What Sense Is God Perfect?</div>
<div class="main-left"><div class="pad2030">
<p>The God of the Bible is perfect. The Bible speaks of God's nature as being perfect as well as his ways as perfect.</p>
<p><b>God Has an Absolutely Perfect Nature</b></p>
<p>Jesus said.</p>
<blockquote><p>Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect (<a id="nbi1294-si1" onClick="return mV('Mat',5,48);">Mat 5:48</a>).</p></blockquote>
<p><b>His Ways Are Always Perfect</b></p>
<p>God's ways are also perfect.</p>
<blockquote><p>As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in him (<a id="nbi1294-si2" onClick="return mV('Psa',18,30);">Psa 18:30</a>).</p></blockquote>
<p><b>There Is Nothing Lacking in Him</b></p>
<p>God is absolute perfection in His character and in His ways&#8212;there is nothing lacking in Him. Human beings, on the other hand, are imperfect in their makeup and behavior.</p>
<p>Because God is perfect in everything there is nothing lacking in His character&#8212;there is no attribute that He needs. He has everything necessary.</p>
<p><b>Summary</b></p>
<p>The perfection of God speaks of His character and His ways. God is perfect in both of these realms. This being the case there is nothing lacking in His character&#8212;there are no missing attributes.</p>
