Christ never talked in vague terms. When He said, "Be perfect," He meant it.
It is hard. It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird; it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg.
We are like eggs at the present. And you cannot go on indefinitely just being an ordinary, decent egg.
We must be hatched or go bad.
C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
