(as found in the Bible)
#14 of 16 Areas of Believer's Perfection
Perfect In Christian Graces And Growth
Hebrews 6:1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, God provides, calls and enables Christians to be PERFECT IN CHRISTIAN GRACES AND GROWTH.
This article is not a definition or explanation of being PERFECT IN CHRISTIAN GRACES AND GROWTH. It is simply a statement that God calls and enables us to experience and be PERFECT IN CHRISTIAN GRACES AND GROWTH.
As with all perfections and graces in the Christian life, it is the redemptive work of God in us that makes it possible to be PERFECT IN CHRISTIAN GRACES AND GROWTH. Being PERFECT IN CHRISTIAN GRACES AND GROWTH is the Christian result of a right relationship to Christ and having the mind of Christ. This is a perfection of quality, not quantity. God's word is our authority.

DLG note... 2 Peter 1:2-11
2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
