If God created everyone perfect, how come no thinks they are?

Question

Or do you?

Answer 1

What is perfect everyone has their own opinions on what perfect is. In my humble opinion perfect are people that are not afraid to break down barriers, not afraid to speak the truth and not afraid to do what is right even in the face of danger, or other challenges. You are right everyone is perfect but it is the ones that changes things for the better that stand out as the perfects amoung the perfects.

Answer 2

If they are perfect, and don't think they are, then they are mistaken, and therefore imperfect, because they're wrong about not being perfect. Bwa ha ha, I love circular logic.

The answer lies in your "If" - if God created everyone, and if so, if God created them perfect. Since God doesn't exist, God did not create anyone, and the whole question is moot.

Answer 3

Sin in the Garden of Eden changed that premise for man.

Christ came as the sin covering for man so that we would be perfect in God's eyes because The Father in Heaven would see His Son [perfection] rather that us directly. And that is the way it will be in Heaen the Holy place without sin !!!

Answer 4

Who told you that God created everyone perfect?
That's an unscriptural premise.
God created Adam in His own image.
Adam begat Seth in Adam's own (fallen) image.

Answer 5

perfection was lost the minute Adam sinned.


blessings :)
ps - yes I think that deep down everyone considers themself to be imperfect

Answer 6

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. (Genesis 1:1) God saw all that He had made, and it was very good. (Genesis 1:31) So, God created everything and saw everything was good. This means in the beginning there was no suffering at all.

If there was no suffering in the beginning how did suffering come to the world? When Adam sinned he brought death and suffering into the world. Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned. (Romans 5:12) Here is Gods curse to us because of Adam: To Adam he said, "Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, 'You must not eat of it,' "Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return." (Genesis 3: 17-19)
As you can see man brought suffering on himself. Sin is the cause of suffering. Without sin there is no suffering. Without the law there is no sin. So anything God says not to do is sin. Sin is lawlessness. For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23) Sin is simply rebelling against God. The effect of our rebelling against God is death and suffering. Sin was the biggest cancer that was brought on to the earth. Sin separates us from God. When we are separated from God we are cursed. Through the curse of our separation there is suffering.

When people say why do bad things happen to good people? The answer is no one is good. Jesus said, “No one is good—except God alone.” (Luke 18:19) The question should be why does God allow good things to happen to bad people. No one goes to God first. God has to come to us first. No one seeks God. So the answer to the question about suffering is simply we suffer because of our rebellion against God. Sin is the reason of suffering and death.
