Hi Socrates,
God is always perfect. That is the definition. If the world is perfect, then that is another way of saying the world to be godly.
God is perfect but it takes time for his creations to reach perfection. He starts with an imperfect creation and perfects that overtime. The world is far from perfect but may eventually reach perfection in God's vision. Creation doesn't work like magic in that nothing perfect suddenly comes into existence.
Another note: perfection is subjective. What is perfect to one person may be primitive to another. What is primitive to one person may be perfect to another. Individuals of diverse species have different organs and senses that have evolved and/or are designed to perceive things similarly and/or differently. Hence, perfection is clearly subjective.

bold mine
Why can't an entity/life form evolve to it's own level of perfection? Why does it take a god, for either existence or for change?
