First, if you think that you can live a perfect life and "Never" even stumble then you are sadly mistaken. It is our curse and who we are. Yes, Jesus tells to be perfect, but this does not mean a literal perfection. We are made clean through Him, and through the spirit. A washing if you will, a spiritual baptism. This is the gift of salvation.
