If our opponents say that this is a transcript of Adam's anti-mediatorial law of paradisiacal perfection; and not a copy of Moses' mediatorial law of Jewish perfection: or if they assert, that Moses Calvinistically hints that the Jews were to keep this law by proxy, they may say that light is darkness.
And, (3.) That the perfection which Christ enforced upon his disciples, was not merely of the negative kind, but of the positive also; since it consisted both in doing and teaching the least, as well as the greatest of God's commandments.

 "Sanctification" by Benjamin Warfield
The Wesleyan theory of perfection conceives that the satisfaction and merit of Christ have made it consistent with divine justice to offer salvation to men on easier terms than the old Adamic law of absolute perfection; and that perfection is attained when these lower terms have been complied with.
According to the Roman or Ritualistic theory, perfection consists in perfect conformity to the law of God, graciously for Christ’s sake adjusted to the capacities of the regenerated man in this life; and this perfection is attained by means of meritorious works and penances, prayers, fasts, acts of voluntary self-denial, and ecclesiastical obedience.
According to the principles of Pelagianism, a man is perfect who obeys the laws of God to the measure of his present natural ability, since the moral law is a sliding scale, adjusting its demands to the varying ability of its subject; and this is possible to every man.

 The Gospel of Free Grace-Eternal Perfection
In vs. 3, the key word is "perfect." The word "perfect" here is not "mature" because it's opposed to the "Spirit," opposed to The Gospel called the "hearing of faith (in vs. 2), identified with the "works of the law" (in vs. 2) and brings on the apostle's rebuke, calling them "foolish and bewitched"!
Notice, SHALL be saved, SHALL because eternal salvation, perfection forever, is not dependent on the lost or saved sinner to any degree, but on Christ and His righteousness and holiness revealed in The Gospel!
We can and must, with a tear in our hearts, judge those lost, who are not submitted to Christ and His righteousness, as entitling them to ALL of salvation, WITHOUT the deeds of the law.

 Natural law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas Aquinas restored natural law to its independent state, asserting that, as the perfection of human reason, it could approach but not fully comprehend the divine law.
This use is especially valid in Scotland, where "natural law" operates as a genre of law parallel to both civil and criminal law, and its discussion is not limited to human beings.
According to natural law ethics, the moral standards that govern human behavior trace to the nature of human beings, to a supreme being, or to the cosmos in general.

 Perfect - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In law, the term perfection is generally used to describe the process for extending, as against third parties, a creditor's rights against a debtor with respect to a security interest (such as a lien) in collateral property.
In this context, the term perfection usually does not mean the creation of the security interest as against the debtor, but instead means the establishment of the creditor's position of "priority" access to the collateral with respect to third parties.
Perfect intervals include the perfect octave, perfect fifth, perfect fourth, and perfect unison.

 Christian Perfection - President Asa Mahan's 1799-1889
In the Christian, perfection in holiness implies the consecration of his whole being to Christ—the subjection of all his powers and susceptibilities to the control of one principle,—"faith on the son of God." This is what the moral law demands of him in his circumstances.
I argue, that perfection in holiness is attainable in this life, and that the sacred writers intended to teach the doctrine, from the fact, that inspired men made the attainment of this particular state the subject of definite, fervent, and constant prayer.
All acknowledge it to be the duty of the Christian to aim at perfection in holiness.

 A Plain Account of Christian Perfection
In this is perfection, and glory, and happiness: The royal law of heaven and earth is this, `Thou shall love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength.' The one perfect good shall be your one ultimate end.
For our perfection is not like that of a tree, which flourishes by the sap derived from its own root, but, as was said before, like that of a branch which, united to the vine, bears fruit; but, severed from it, is dried up and withered.
But after a time, a cry arose, and, what a little surprised me, among religions men, who affirmed, not that I stated perfection wrong, but that "there is no perfection on earth;" nay, and fell vehemently on my brother and me for affirming the contrary.

 Chapter 19. CHRISTIAN PERFECTION.
There is a pertinacious unwillingness in sinners to become Christians, and in Christians to become perfect, or to come up to the full perfection required both by the law and gospel.
Christian Perfection, as here required, is not freedom from temptation, either from our constitution or from things that are about us.
Sinners may strongly wish to become Christians, and Christians may strongly wish or desire to be rid of all their sins, and may pray for it, even with agony.

 NO PERFECTION BY THE LAW
It was all the more of consequence to press this, both because of the close connection in which the law stood to the true perfection, as its promise and preparation, and of the natural tendency of the human heart to seek perfection by the law.
It was not only the Hebrews who greatly needed this teaching: among Christians in our days the greatest hindrance in accepting the perfection the gospel asks and offers, is that they make the law its standard, and then our impotence to fulfil the law, the excuse for not attaining, for not even seeking it.
The perfection of the perfect heart, a heart wholly yielded to seek God with all its strength, is again a seed, with infinite power of growth and increase.
