He explains that while God's ideal requirements may seem unattainable, through faith in Jesus Christ, believers can receive forgiveness and the Holy Spirit to help them grow towards these ideals. Smith highlights the importance of a genuine relationship with Jesus, which transforms believers and empowers them to fulfill God's demands. He reassures that while perfection is not achieved in this life, the journey of faith is about progress and reliance on God's grace.
