Excerpt:

'Be Perfect in Everything"

From FATHER DIVINE'S Message Whilst at the Holy Communion Table , Circle Mission Church,
764-772 South Broad Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Time: 1:35 A.M.

 

"A standard of perfection I have lifted for you! For this cause I said in the Body called JESUS,

'Be ye perfect even as your FATHER which is in heaven is Perfect!'
Be perfect in whatsoever you are doing! - . Be perfect in speech, in words, in deeds and in actions! - . Be perfect in thoughts! - . Be perfect in profession, labor and trade! - . Be perfect in every act and in every deed! - . Be perfect in all of your studies! . Be perfect in everything! That is the significance of
'Be ye perfect even as your FATHER which is in heaven is Perfect!'

Whatsoever you do, Be perfect at it! That is what I AM talking about. I know you did not think or know that I was speaking of being perfect in whatsoever you are doing! Someone thought I meant be perfect and H-O-L-Y, Holy but I said,

'Be ye perfect even as your FATHER which is in Heaven is Perfect!'

H-O-L-Y, Holy is a wonderful Holiness, but be perfect in accurateness by the spirit of equity. Adjust matters satisfactorily and make things accurate in every activity! That is what I AM talking about now, and that is the perfection of which I was speaking especially:

'Be ye perfect even as your FATHER which is in heaven is perfect!'
. If you are serving, be a perfect servant! - . If you are a boss, be a perfect boss! - If you are a teacher, be a perfect teacher!

Whatsoever you are, be perfect in that which you are and express it accurately and Perfectly scientifically and so systematically and correctly that there would be no grounds for criticism! I thank you! I thank you! I thank you!
