God is perfect or complete in all, and deficient in nothing. He has no flaws, He has no chips, and He has no hidden imperfections. He is as gold perfectly refined, with no impurities. He is perfect in all of His attributes.
Let us look at some of the areas where God's perfection is seen.
God's knowledge is perfect: Job. 37:16 mentions that He is "perfect in knowledge." There is nothing that He does not know, and there is no defect in that knowledge. So, don't think that when you step into that little secret sin that He won't notice, or that He will forget. His knowledge of our sin is perfect, His knowledge of your thoughts is perfect, and His knowledge of your deeds is perfect.
God's will is perfect: Romans 12:2, "…ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." Now, when you have gained knowledge of His will for your life, you don't need to second guess it, you don't need to worry about it, and you don't need to worry about opposition. His will is perfect and you only need to follow it.
God's law is perfect: Psalm 19:7, "The law of the Lord is perfect….." The Word is our guide for life. It is there to help us through the problems and trials of time. If we go to it, then we have perfect guidance, for It is perfect.
God's way is perfect: Psalm 18:30, "As for God, his way is perfect….." The only way to God is through Jesus Christ the Lord. That is the perfect way to God. God's paths, or way, is always correct and perfect, be it the way He is taking you or the way He is leading you. All His ways are perfect and complete.
He can't change some of these items if He should desire, but He did a perfect work in you as you are at this point.
God's gifts are perfect: James 1:17 , "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above….." So, If you are a good evangelist, don't covet the good preacher or teacher their gifts. He gave the gift that He wanted you to have and it is perfect. Indeed, every gift is perfect, even if it is money, talent, spouse, education etc.
Old Testament usage: One of the main terms ["tamiym"] translated perfect in the Old Testament is also translated many times "without blemish" and is translated "complete" once. Complete seems to be a good definition of the term. (Leviticus 23:15 = complete) This is the term used of the sacrificial lambs that were to be without blemish. God is without blemish, He is complete, and He is perfect in all that He is.
New Testament usage: Perfect is the translation of "telios." It also has the idea of complete. Both the Old Testament and the New Testament show the complete, perfection of God.
The answer is that created beings are held as perfect in relation to other created beings, and not God. God is a perfect being; His perfection is absolute. The term shows that the person or creation mentioned is complete and ready for operation. They are perfect in light of the perfectness that is available to them.
Only God is a perfect Being. We are perfect in our completeness to do the job. A car being moved off of the assembly line is complete and ready to roll, but the latest survey's show that if you inspect a car closely that there are usually at least twenty defects of some sort. It is a complete car, but it is not a perfect sort of car.
God's being is perfect. We are a perfect creation, but far from the classification of a perfect being.
2. Matthew 5:48 mentions that the believer is to be perfect. If the above is true, then how can man be perfect. Again, we cannot reach God's perfection, but we can achieve perfection in relation to other men. We can reach the perfection that is available to us. That perfection includes the spiritual standing that we have in Christ, the completely perfect and justified standing that we have before God because of the finished work of Christ.
That perfection includes the spiritual state — having all sin confessed and waiting for the next one to confess. This is the perfection that is available to us through Christ in this life.
The idea of Matthew is moral completeness rather than perfection. The New Testament idea is complete and ready to run. The car coming off the assembly line of a factory is complete and ready; All parts are installed and present.
God's perfection can certainly be our goal but we will not attain God's perfection because we are not purely spirit beings.
1. If He is perfect in all ways, then we can find ALL we need in Him. We need not look for fulfillment in the business world. We need not look for fulfillment in marriage. We need not look for fulfillment in the ministry. We need not look for fulfillment anywhere but in HIM. Fulfillment in these areas is not wrong but if we seek God to the best of our ability He will give us the fulfillment that He wants us to have. Matthew 6:33 mentions that He will supply all of our need. If we seek after material things we may end up with more than we need.
2. The New Testament tells the believer to seek perfection. Matthew 5:48 tells us to be perfect as the Father is perfect. Colossians 1:28, commands that we are to be working for the perfection of the saints (Ephesians 4:11- 12 also). James 1:4 tells us that we will be perfect one day.
3. Since God's will is perfect we can trust in that will when the prices are up and our income is down and nothing seems to be going right and we just know that God has made a mistake. NO. He makes no mistakes. If you are in His will and things are down, you can KNOW that it is His plan for your life.
4. If He is perfect we should be moved to follow Him explicitly in our lives to gain the most out of our lives for Him. Our goal in life should be His perfect will for us. Nothing else should enter in to our decisions — only following His leading.
5. If He is perfect then we know man can never be perfect, so we SHOULD grow to tolerate those imperfections that bother us in our mates, our children, our pastors, our teachers, our neighbors and our co- workers.
6. We are all in the process of becoming perfect. Paul mentions that he isn't perfect yet in Philippians 3:11,12. No Matter How Good You Are, You Are Not Perfect. Not Even If You Think That You Are. God can improve on you if you allow Him to work.
7. We should realize we are all perfect (completed) in His eyes through Christ and that the new Christian is as perfect as the mature Christian — thus we have no grounds for feeling inferior or superior about our spiritual position.
A question came up in class one time concerning whether God can sin. We considered the possibility for a time and came to some conclusions: We didn't think He could, but that there was no real Scripture on either side that we could think of, however we drew some logical conclusions.
1. It would violate His purity. It would violate His righteousness. It would violate His holiness.
2. He could not condemn man if He were sinful.
3. The whole of Scripture would be a sham if He did sin. We know the Bible is truth and totally reliable so this would not be possible.
4. Sin was introduced by Satan — a created being — not by God. It was not present prior to Satan's fall.
5. Sin is defined thusly. Sin is rebellion against God. So how can God sin? The creator can do anything he wants, but the creatures can disobey the creator. A landowner can put up a sign saying keep off the grass. Anyone stepping on the grass is going against the owners wishes — except the owner. He is not bound by the sign.
In conclusion, God is perfect, so how can He sin and have imperfections? He cannot.

Drama As Car Thief Snatches Car From Military Officer In Broad Daylight
Africa Wish Send an email October 11, 2021
A car thief seized a car from a military officer in broad daylight in Akyem Tafo in the Eastern region on Sunday, causing drama.
Sargent Eric Okyere Agyapong, a physical training teacher with the Northern Military Command Headquarters in Tamale who is currently on attachment at the Army recruit training school Shai Hills, paid a visit to his wife and children in Akyem Tafo around 1:40pm on Sunday, October 10, 2021.
His car, however, suffered a technical problem, so he borrowed his wife's Hyundai Elantra saloon car, registration number ER 490 21, and drove it home to find a mechanic to fix the car for him.
The couple met the suspect at a mechanic shop, and during their talk, the suspect leapt into the couple's car and drove away with it.
To pursue the culprit, the military commander hired a taxi.
When the suspect reached the Suhyen to Jumapo segment of the Bunso to Koforidua route, he collided into another vehicle.
The military commander sounded an alarm, and local youngsters, as well as police from a nearby checkpoint, rushed to the scene, but the suspect, who was said to have juju powers, resisted arrest.
He was pepper-sprayed and beaten numerous times before being overpowered, detained, and taken to Jumapo Police Station. Later, he was transported to the Regional MTTD at the Koforidua Police Headquarters.
The Akyem Tafo District Police Command, led by ASP Fred Kpetigo, went to Koforidua Regional Police Headquarters and met the suspect, who was handcuffed and had a swollen face, at the RMTTU charge office.
The suspect, who remained anonymous, identified himself as Nana Agyemang.
He was sent to the Akyem Tafo District Police Command, where he was treated and released from the New Tafo Akim Government Hospital.
According to DSP Ebenezer Tetteh, Public Relations Officer of the Eastern Regional Police Command, the suspect is in police custody cooperating with the investigation, while the partially damaged stolen car has been towed to Regional Police Headquarters.

How Long Would Australia Last In A War (And Why)?
Exact Answer: 12 months
The world is not always a safe place, and if it is now, it is because of the efficiency of the country's government, military defense, and budget. Wars happen out of nowhere and nobody knows the exact reason why they happen. Some are solved easily with peace treaties and compromises, yet some prolong and end up in high casualties and bloodshed. Wars just don't take lives, they also have a severe effect on the economy of the country, and everything changes when a war happens.
The government sets up defense forces that include manpower and many other services. The leadership is divided and everything differs based on the country's resources, economic resources, and the size of the country. There are totally seven continents in the world, and one of them is Australia. Australia is basically the smallest continent and does not have many states. Their military defense and budget are yet as good as any other country.
After a long consolidation of military facts, Australia can last in the war for about a year.
How Long Would Australia Last In A War?
War Time
World War 1 1912-1918
Russian Civil War 1918-1920
Just like every other continent and country in the world, Australia has also been through war and came back in flying colors and victory. The list of wars Australia has taken part in include Second Boer War, Boxer Rebellion, World War 1, World War 2, Russian Civil War, Korean War, Malayan Emergency, Borneo Confrontation, Vietnam War, Gulf War, War in Afghanistan, Iraq War, Operation Astute, and War on ISL. The Australian protection system includes two major organizations, The Australia Defence Force and the Australian Army.
How Long Does It Take To Climb Mount Everest (And Why)?
The Australian Army was first formed on 1 March 1901, and its role in land warfare. The size of the army is 29,511 regularly and 18,738 inactive reserves. The officers who are in charge are Commander in chief, chief of the defense force, chief of the army, deputy chief of the army, and commander of the forces. The Australian Defense Force is also very much capable and they are the military organization that is responsible for the defense of Australia. The organization consists of Royal Australian Navy, Australian Army, Royal Australian Air Force, and many other tri-service units.
The Australian Army is actually a branch of the Australian Defence Force and the headquarters is located in Canberra, ACT. The leadership includes Commander-in-Chief, Prime minister, Minister for defense, and Chief of the defense force. All the branches of the ADF include manpower. The man or woman must be at least 16.5 years for at least getting into the selection list, 17 years to serve, 18 to be deployed, and at least 19 years to get deployed for special forces deployment.
Why Does Australia Last That Long In War?
The current budget of ADF in total is 44.6 billion and 26 billion of it is specifically allotted to the Australian Military. Australia's military force and ADF on whole are actually relatively small. The count of active-duty personnel and active reservists are the largest in Oceania but are smaller than the American and most of the Asian military forces. Yet, the ADF gets supported by a large budget in worldwide standards and they are more than capable of deploying forces to any location outside of Australia.
Their active military personnel, budget is lower than many other countries as the continent is comparatively smaller. The Australian Army has combat tanks, armored fighting vehicles, and even rocket projectors and artillery guns are also available alongside self-propelled artillery guns. It has been also noticed that Australia has 47 naval assets, 10 frigates, 6 submarines, six mine warfare vessels, and 2 aircraft carriers.
Australia is one of the countries that have all sorts of services and equipment that can help them last in a war for at least 8 to 12 months without any major economical loss. The land forces, naval forces, natural resources are very good and since their geography is also small, it is also possible that they can manage with limited military budgets.
Their logic is also very unique and their manpower and airpower are also strong. All Australia has to do is keep the forces running steadily with the limited budget for a while to last for a year.

Norman Kreitman (July 5, 1927 - December 15, 2012) was a psychiatric researcher and academic, based in Edinburgh, primarily known for coining the term parasuicide. He was also a published poet of some distinction, and wrote perceptively on the philosophy of art - in particular, on the psychology of metaphor.

Kreitman was born in London. He received his medical training at Westminster Hospital, graduating in 1949, and worked at a tuberculosis hospital on the Isle of Wight before going into psychiatry. After training at the Maudsley hospital, he moved to Edinburgh in 1966.

In Edinburgh, he was Director of the Medical Research Council Unit for Epidemiological Studies in Psychiatry.

Sports which are played in or on the water. Swimming and diving, both of which are self-explanatory, are played in the water, as are water polo, which is a two-team game where each team attempts to score by sending a large ball the other team's goal. Snorkeling is the practice of swimming under water with the help of a diving mask, fins, and a snorkel through which the swimmer breathes. Synchronized swimming is a combination of swimming, gymnastics, and dance and consists of swimmers performing elaborate routines atop and beneath the water. Then there are events which take place above the water, such as white water rafting which is an activity which is accomplished by using an inflatable raft in order to navigate a river; water skiing, a sport wherein the skier planes over the water on long planks of wood or fiberglass while being pulled by a speedboat. Additionally, surfing, rowing, sailing, and kiteboarding are above-the-water water sports.

Jennifer Marshall tackles the calling Christians have to be compassionate to the poor. How to live out that biblical command in the context of 21st-century America is the challenge. And it's one that Marshall encourages Christians to think about more. Good intentions, aren't enough. Upon first fully understanding the problem, truly effective compassion means striving for human flourishing and seeking the conditions that make it possible. Marshall gives practical advice for how Christians can not only make a difference, but can step up and lead the charge to care for all of those created in God's Image.


In the Spring of 2015, the M-STEP replaced the MEAP as Michigan's state assessment. Since testing occurs in the spring, students will be tested on content learned in the current school year. Lake Shore students will take an online version of the M-STEP.
In the Fall of 2013, Lake Shore Public Schools implemented NWEA testing. Students in grades 2-9 took the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP), while students in kindergarten and first grade took MAP for Primary Grades. All students were assessed in Reading, Language Usage and Mathematics. The NWEA tests will be administered three times each year and will replace a variety of other assessments, providing us with a consistent measurement of students' progress through the grades.
Both the NWEA MAP and MAP for Primary Grades are online assessments using computer adaptive technology. This means that the test is individualized for each student. If a student is answering questions quickly and correctly, the computer presents more difficult questions. If a student is responding incorrectly, the computer will adjust and present easier questions. These adjustments are made as the student is testing. In addition, the computer tracks each student's performance and begins the next test session where the student left off. This allows us to zero in on each student's level of performance more quickly and accurately than with a traditional paper pencil test.
In addition to other useful information, MAP testing provides a Lexile score for each student. Parents can enter their child's Lexile score at www.lexile.com to receive a list of popular books written at their child's instructional reading level.

I've finally put together a new reel for 2015 and thought I'd share it with you all here. Let me know what you think!
Looks wonderful! It is great to see such variety in visual styles handled so deftly.
i love it all and really love the cartoon like smoke and clouds in some of the clips!
Absolutely wonderful work, love it! The only thing I'd say is, swearing on your soundtrack? That's a big no, no.
Very nice work. I also like the mix of styles.
Thanks everyone. The track is Devour by Little Sims.
While it doesn't offend me in the least, I guarantee you that it will offend some of your audience. And it might just offend the one person who has the best job you'll never do waiting for you, but for the music.
Hi StCanas, thanks for watching the reel. I take your feedback on board (and if you've got a sweet job to give me that would be great!), but besides your take on it I've had pretty much completely positive feedback on the track choice. And more new work enquiries than I've had in the last couple of years.
Showreel music choice is always subjective, but I use it to almost pre-select the sort of work I want to be getting more of. I am interested in working for fashion and high end brands that like to do work for a young, energetic audience. I'm not interested in making infographics for Banks necessarily. although I have done that in the past (and it pays well!).
I guess my final take on it is, if someone is so offended by the audio that they don't watch the pictures then I'm not worried about missing out on their employ. I'd sit through a reel edited to top 40 Country and Western, or the macarena if the pictures were nice.
Sorry this reply rambled a bit, just thought it was an interesting topic.


I'm washing our four down jackets (the two of them are long size) right now. The three of them already have been finished. The rest one is still soaking in bathwater with laundry liquid.
According to the weather forecast, both of today and tomorrow will be sunny or slightly overcast and high temperature.

Everybody knows about Tokyo's famous $70 pineapples and $150 sushi lunches, but who tells us where to find the best $6 noodles shops? Having spent so much of my life in Tokyo, the places that I know best are all about food. Cheap and cheerful cuisine. This does not mean junk food or poor quality ingredients: if there's anywhere in the world to exist on a $20-a-day meal budget, it's here – this fine city doesn't have more Michelin stars than Paris without good reason. Quality is king in Japan, regardless of the size of the bill. I'm not going to waste your time telling you about the multi-national corporations and restaurant empires that are sprinkled all over town, they really don't need a plug from me. Here are some of my favourite inexpensive places around central Tokyo.
Chinese Cafe Eight is very easy to find : a large restaurant with a verandah lit with fairy lights opposite the Grand Hyatt in Roppongi Hills. Since opening, Cafe Eight's Peking duck (¥2,880, feeds 3 or 4) has taken the restaurant to such peaks of popularity that 2 more branches have been opened. They are all usually quite full.This place is also famous for it's interesting, er, fertility decor, but don't let the genitalia on the walls put you off your spring rolls. The ¥105 water dumplings with your choice of 30 fillings are also legendary, all made fresh, so this isn't the place to go if you're in a hurry . All the chinese favourites can be found on the menu, but I always go for 2 or 3 of the 50 appetisers from the ¥210 menu.For a night out with friends, try the ¥1,500 all-you-can-drink-for-two hours option. Loads of healthy choices available as well. Open 24 hours, English website, booking is highly recommended… there's usually a 40 minute waiting time in the evenings otherwise.
The local Ramen Shop .I'd say ramen noodles the unofficial dish of Japan. I know you all think it's sushi or miso soup, but everyone in this town really has a passion for Ramen .I'm with them there. I don't need to give you a specific shop, as you can always find the small bar with picture menus of noodles and beer in the windows are at every train station, on every shopping street in every suburb and city. Tokyoites all have their preferred ramen shop. My personal fave is the one in Hiroo on the shopping street next to the metro station. It's a tiny place at the beginning of the road on the left side next to a pub. In the early days when I couldn't even read my own name in Japanese, I came here because of the English menu they offer to the confused gaijin who wanders in from the street. They have nice fresh gyoza and the set menus offer rice, chicken and vegetables and soup for less than ¥800. Noodle soup ranges in price from about ¥600 – 840. The old-fashioned Japanese fizzy drink ramune ( I assume it comes from the word "lemonade", it tastes something like lemonade with lime in it)is also available in this shop in the old bottles with a marble. Sadly, this lovely beverage, which was so popular in the last 100 years or so in Japan is becoming harder and hard to find as Coke machines take over the world.In most ramen bars, extra topping ( green vegetables, corn, eggs, meat) will be added for ¥100. I have personally never finished a bowl of ramen at my local shop. They are huge. The little 42-kilo Japanese person sitting next to me will inhale their entire bowl in under 2 minutes, go figure!
Shunju is actually…a chain, I know.But it's a small one. It has organic items on the menu,and local produce so it can't be that bad, can it?! I like it anyway. Lunch at Shunju is great value at ¥800 + for ginger pork with vegetables and rice, charcoal grilled fish and chicken.Dinner is a bit more expensive, but worth it – a friend and I ordered avocado and lotus salad, fried tofu and charcoal fish for ¥1400 each, not including drinks of course.The decor is very zen, the cuisine is modern Japanese and They have locations in Ebisu and Hibiya, but I like the one in Shibuya on a street call Bunkamura dori, and it's easy to find – near the Shibuya city hotel and opposite the Bunkamura building…I love the long counter at this branch. Maps are on the website in Japanese, but if you take the map and ask someone once you get on the street, they'll be able to help.Website is mostly Japanese, but Google Translate helps if you wish to read the menu.
¥100 Sushi – another one that has shops all over town, all of a similar quality. The sushi is on a conveyor belt and is usually priced at 100, 150, 200 and maybe 300 or 500 yen, depending on the fish. You can stuff yourself for ¥800. Not bad. I go to the one in Shinjuku's Kabukicho area, and more often to the one in Hiroo right by Citibank ( about 4 doors up, it has a blue sign and ¥100 banners. Green tea, sometimes iced green tea in summer, is complimentary and served in most sushi bars.Alternatively, by your sushi at the supermarket or local sushi shop – a pretty little box with shredded radish, wasabi and a flower go for ¥500 and up. Don't eat the flower. I did – I believe it's decorative, but what a dumb thing to put on a sushi tray!
The Alfresco Option is cheaper and easier in Tokyo than most places. All bento shops and combinis (convenience stores) sell trays of fried noodles, sandwiches, onigiri, potato salad , some kind of meat on a stick and weird little pickled things for pocket change. If you are really serious about spending as little as possible, these are the places to get $3 meals. Enormous cans of beer are really cheap too, so grab your dinner and go eat it in a park, or around the common areas in Tokyo Midtown or Roppongi Hills, two of the big shopping and business complexes – they have nice little Japanese gardens.
Mos Burger . If you're going to have fast food, at least do it in Japanese style at a locally owned chain: Mos burger is the Japanese McDonald's – only everything is fresh and tastes like real food…and it's kind of cool. They now have outlets in Taiwan and Singapore , this news excited me greatly when I found this out! They sell all the favourites like cheeseburgers, onion rings, chips and coke but they have their own Japanese-style stuff like a teriyaki burger, katsu burgers and the lovely, Chernobyl-green melon soda(it's amaaazing!). A burger, fries and drink set is about ¥600 and up.Breakfasts are ¥390 – 430 and a hotdog is ¥290. My pick of the menu is the ebi (shrimp) burger for ¥350 – a wholemeal bun, freshly cooked shrimp cultlets,tartare sauce and green leaves. It's a ripper…I can't tell you how many hours my friend E and I have spent ages sitting around just TALKING about this burger. Yes, it is sad, but give it a whirl and then trytelling me that it's just ordinary. Their fish burgers are out of this world too – I've watched my dear friend W consume 4 in one go! Mos burgers aren't ALL over town like Mcdonalds, but they have at least 30 outlets that I know of in Shibuya, Roppongi (right next to the Ibis hotel) Shinjuku, Meguro and Gotanda (by the stations) Just look for the forest green sign with the red "m" and enjoy.
So there you have it! Now there's no need for spending your entire time in Tokyo at a McDonald's or a TGIF coz everything else is too exy. One last tip : if you want to have a big fancy meal, do it at lunch time – even the posh restaurants have sets for ¥1500, and you get them for much less. Most of the Indian places have curry buffets for ¥1000 from about 11.30am – 2pm. Happy eating.
