MM,

You said, "read the NT like a child"?

That goes against Scripture. Here's what Scripture says: Hebrews 5:13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. So, you should grow up. Yes, God wants us to be perfect as He is perfect. And yes, we can be thus. Jesus says: Matthew 19:26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Do you have enough faith to obey Christ on His Command to be perfect? Do you think that if you do your best to be perfect and yet fail, that Christ will condemn you for it? Luke 18:13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. 14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
