You, therefore, must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
-Bible "Matthew 5.48"

Belief in a cruel God makes a cruel man.
-Thomas Paine
Perfection is the exclusive attribute of God, and it is indescribable, untranslatable. I do believe that it is possible for human beings to become perfect, even as God is perfect. It is necessary for all of us to aspire after that perfection but when that blessed state is attained, it becomes indescribable, indefinable.
Anyone that is fallen into the grip of lust, wrath, or attachment…by contemplation of the Supreme Being, with a moment’s remembrance of God shall he be saved.
Your idol is shattered in the dust to prove that God's dust is greater than your idol.
