Sinless

Jesus was the Son of God (fully God) and the Son of Man (fully man). In being man, he lost none of his deity; in being God, he lived in full humanity. These truths make Jesus the only One who could die for humanity’s sin. He was sinless—the only One who did not have to pay for his own sins; he was man—the only One who could die as our sinless substitute.

Jesus—fully God and fully man—gave himself up as the perfect sacrifice. Being sinless, he was the only One who did not have to die for his sins. Being man, he was the only One who could die on man’s behalf.

Jesus is the one way to God. He provided the only way by dying for our sin on the cross.

A savior must be sinless to die sacrificially for the sin of others. Since all humans are sinful, he must be God, and to die on man’s behalf; he must be man.

Jesus, Son of God and Son of Man, is the only way that sinful man can have an eternal relationship with the holy God.

Life—now and forever—is found in Jesus alone.

While we will never live sinless lives on this earth, it is possible, by the strength of the Spirit, to sin less and obey more. That’s the high standard to which God has called his children. And that should be the desire of his children.

The Almighty took on flesh and made His dwelling among us. His existence was for this painful purpose. Sin had separated man from God. Death was sin’s penalty. Jesus, fully God and fully man, took on death for us. The Sinless One died for sinful man. The penalty of sin was paid for in full at the cross. He sacrificed Himself for you.
