Could Jesus have sinned?

[alley]

He was fully man so yes he could have sinned
He was fully God so no he could not have sinned

The answer is simply BOTH yes and no

 

[Scott J]

That was effectively what I was trying to say alley. Thanks for saying it so succinctly.

 

[saturneptune]

Its great seeing you and alley in one accord.

 

[Scott J]

Agreed.

Especially since we draw different conclusions concerning soteriology.

You will have to excuse me for my ingorance, but I am not sure that I have ran across you before over here. This is only my 3rd thread I have posted on. Have we ran across each other before? I don't post much over here

If you are Calvinist then your comment is correct about soteriology.

I will say this, I really believe the answer is both yes and no. IF I had to really chose one more than the other, then I say Jesus was impeccable.

 

[Scott J]

No. We haven't.

I noticed in your profile that you are Free Will Baptist and went on the 99.9% probability that you weren't calvinistic.

No He couldn't sin for to do so would of made a mockery of all He came to do which was to make a perfect sacrifice for sin. If the beast of the field were spotted they were not accepted for a sacrifice and if Jesus could of sinned He would of died for his own sin and not ours and then His coming would of been if vain and would of had to start all over again, God don't work that way.
