The goal of perfecting  is not to become super Christians nor to merely excel in our service, but rather it is to build up the Body of Christ. Those who are perfected are being perfected to do the same as the ones who had perfected them. We need a paradigm shift in our view of our service. Our service should bring in perfecting, which is to supply the function of the saints. In this way many will function to build up the Body of Christ.
