Is it a logical fallacy that complete perfection can at the same time be imperfection? Is it a logical fallacy that complete perfection can at the same time be imperfection?

Christianity states that Jesus was both fully God and Fully man. God is complete perfection, man is imperfection. Jesus was imperfect in knowledge (he grew in knowledge as he aged) and in his body (he could die, and was dying everyday as we are). That he needed a resurrected (perfect) body would show that there was some imperfection in his human body.

Jesus said in Matthew 19:17: "And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God..."; while Jesus does not deny that he himself is good, he does call into question the idea that anyone but God can even be good, let alone perfect
Even Jesus didn't think that he was perfect, problem solved.

What does "in God's image" even mean, since it supposedly doesn't mean appearance OR behaviour?
