Jesus said to the Pharisees, "It is not the healthy who need the doctor but the sick. Go and learn the meaning of the words, 'What I want is mercy and not sacrifice'. And indeed I did not come to call the virtuous, but sinners."
Matthew 9:12-13

All must guard against the snare of complacency. While breath remains in a child of the Father there is room for progress and growth. no-one has arrived at that stage of development and perfection which the Father desires for each and every one until the last breath is drawn. At that point of departure I take into My incarnate, redemptive care, the whole person, gently dissociating that which is contrary to wholeness from the whole and perfecting, through My saving love, all that is of truth and goodness. And this I present to the Father with joy and thanksgiving in the presence of the faithful, the angels, archangels, and all the company of Heaven.

So all must watch and work and wait in hope until all is accomplished. And each must look to the well-being of the other in every aspect of life and living. And as each contributes to the building up of others through love and self-giving so is each himself built into the fabric of the Father's Kingdom, becoming a true and lively part of its reality.
