Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.
The way to perfection, or holiness, is love. Jesus tells us here, and in other places, that we are supposed to love our neighbors. Here he even goes so far as to say to love our enemies. And in the end of this passage Jesus sums it all up by saying, 'be perfect, as your father in heaven is perfect.' The way for to be perfect is through love. In loving our neighbors as ourselves, as well as loving God, we achieve the holiness God wants for/from us. We know how to be perfect. Let us continue to work toward that goal. God bless you.
