What does James 1:17 mean that every perfect gift


Does it have to be perfect to be good?
I would offer.It means complete nothing can be added to it or taken away from it.(Grace)

Jesus says only God is good, giving glory to the unseen holy place. . As a new creature in Christ . You don't have to be perfect to be complete in Christ who lives in us .We are complete in Christ. The author and perfecter of our new faith .

He lovingly commands us to be perfect as he is perfect in Him .

Matthew 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
We know we cannot be God. The Perfect one.

The only way we could be good is as he works in us to both will and empower us to do His good purpose . he promises us he will not forget the good works we do offer towards his name that comforts and strengthens us as we do rest in his love.

every good thing that enabled us too read and meditate on the verse James 1:17

is good

and even this good is "gift from God" as stated in James 1:17

self-recursively deep

spend eternity

spend is finite

eternity is infinite

infinite - finite = infinite

so eternity is still not spent, no matter how we spend it
An unlimited supply of future experience in heaven to look forward to

Minus, (for the sake of the argument) time spent in heaven that become past tense

Equal or equivalent to ...
An unlimited supply of future 😁 to look forward to with the most enjoyable "present experience" (relatives to being there) possible

for quality

John 8:7 - He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

John 8:11 - “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.”

the perfect balance of God's character and attribute

what would heaven be like? (relative to the perception of time)

unlimited amount of future moments to look forward to

while being able to enjoy the present to the utmost with effortless ease

and being able to enjoy past "memories of enjoyment" like they are your sacred devotionals, your favorite devotionals, and no matter how you repeat these "repeated devotionals" you will endlessly enjoy them

God is an extreme being, yet he is stable, he can calm the storm, infinite dexterity, precision, and unlimited supply of mental attention, focus, willpower, etc.

Stillness, Psalms 23:2, psalm 46:10, Exodus 14:14 - be still (ultra efficient)

Mustard seed sized faith can move spiritual mountains

Soften heart of stone to heart of flesh

The king of free will

Does God have infinite variety of attributes?

Yet all are in harmony regardless of amounts of attributes

Infinite dimensions? <--that's creation,

Biggest amount of finite dimension
Amen!

the fact that anything is measurable at all, given so many possibilities of being immeasurable, especially the void of genesis 1:2

If God is quality

The smallest sense of quality, must be infinite quality and vice versa

Is it possible that God transcend quality?
God transcends any and all words used by humanity to describe Him!

As a matter of fact...what shall we compare him to....NOTHING....BECAUSE TO DO AS SUCH would DEVALUE HIM!
