Not at all. Nothing wrong with goals that are not attainable in a practical sense of the word. it happens all the the time in real life. Walked on water lately?? Moved any mountains ????? Uprooted any trees ?? No one in your church deserving of having his hand cut off or his eye plucked out? When was the last time you got in your closet and prayed? Put "sinless perfection" in this category and you have something of a viable context for figuring out what Christ was doing in the Sermon -- other than establishing a New Order of events in His quest to fix Legalism as the means to salvation.

DAVEH: If that is not possible, then why the commandment to do so? Mt 5:48........
Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
.........Doesn't it seem odd to have a commandment that is not obtainable?
