The question needs to be answered in the negative for three reasons, which I will refer to as his person, his Paraclete, and his purpose.
Christ underwent temptations as our mediator (Rom. 8:2–4). He did this in our place, as our representative. And as he was tempted, the Spirit was active. Consider the wilderness temptations. After Jesus’s anointing by the Spirit at his baptism, the Spirit leads him out to the wilderness to be tempted. While Jesus didn’t have a fallen nature, so no ...
A common objection to Christ’s impeccability is that if Jesus could not sin, this would make his humanity less. After all, Adam (the first human) could sin, and (as we know all too well) so can we.

No matter who we are, we all — without exception — commit sin and break God’s law. As the Bible says, “There is no one who is righteous, not even one” (Romans 3:10). But Jesus wasn’t only a man.

Paul’s language is careful. He did not say Jesus became a sinner, which would be untrue.

Sep 2, 2019 · Scripture is clear that Jesus, the sinless Son of God, was tempted to sin (Matthew 4:1–11; Mark 1:13; Luke 4:2; 22:28; Hebrews 2:18). 1 In addition, the author of the book of Hebrews assures Christians that it is because he was “tempted as we are” (Hebrews 4:15) that our ascended Savior is able to sympathize with our weaknesses as fallen people. However, the same verse adds that the ...
