Perry, the issue of "sinless" perfection or sinless maturity is not
resolved with Strong's definition of the Greek word. In exegetical
studies, there is much more to the discovery of "definition" (in a given
passage) than the mere defining of a word. In this case, I believe that
semantical considerations are given qualification as they stand in the
light of syntax. In your personal studies, you might consider the effect
of "............. as your Heavenly Father is ........... " and the
grammatical influence it might have on the gk word translated "perfect" or
"mature." Further, certain theological considerations are sure to rise
from both considerations (semantical and that of syntax) ---------
what are those theological considerations? For example: is there any
comparison with God that would allows us to think something other than
"sinless" or "without flaw?" If so , what and why? If not, ditto
(?)
