Could Jesus have sinned?

Could we agree on the following?

Adam was Able to Not Sin but he did.
Jesus was Able to Not Sin and he didn't.
As Lost persons we are Unable to not sin and so we do sin.
As Saved persons we are Able to Not Sin but often do sin.
As Glorified persons we will be Unable to Sin.

Did Jesus stop being God during his earthly ministry? No.
Is God impeccable? Yes.
Therefore Jesus is/was/will be impeccable.

Does your nature make decision in your life or does your spirit? Your spirit. Did Jesus human nature make the decisions in his life or did his Spirit? His Spirit and that Spirit is the Spirit of God.

The following are just a few of more than 1,400 articles I found on the Impeccability of Jesus Christ.

Fundemental Baptist Institute (Excellent presentation)

Web Page: James Martin

Biblical Studies Foundation (Quite well done)

The following are articles I found with the PRO peccability side:

(None)

I am sure there are some out there but I spent more time and effort looking for the peccable side than the impeccable side and these were the results.

No. My view conflicts with number 2.

Though Jesus Christ came in the flesh (sarx) He was still intrinsically Holy as a Person and therefore could not sin.

I believe there may have even been a struggle in some situations (as in the Garden) but the outcome was an absolute certainty.

Matthew 26
39 And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.

But I think we can agree to disagree.
