we by ourselves cannot make ourself perfect.
that's why we need Christ who is perfect to come and make us
perfect.
Story:
a ticket booth was set up to sell ticket into Heaven, the ticket is
free, but only perfect person can get the ticket from the
booth.
the problem is, no one is perfect, and so no one can get the
ticket.
along came Christ who is perfect, He walks up to the booth, show
and proof His perfection, get the tickets. Now, Christ have the
tickets, He then announce, whoever want a ticket can go to Him for
one.
some people quickly form a line and get the ticket from him. others
are sceptical and do not believe Him, yet others are proud and
insist that they too can achieve perfection on their own.
/Story Ends
I know that this is not really a good anology, but for our
discussion, this should do, the thing is this, though Christ had
paid the price to make us perfect and righteous to qualify entry
into Heaven, there will always be people who cannot/refuse to
believe its simplicity, or His goodness, of course there will be
people who rather believe in their own efforts to get into
heaven.
