1 | Could Jesus like Adam have sinned? | Phil 2:7 | CDBJ | 173841 | ||
Greetings koscheiman; Let me see if I am reading you right, when you say the following? Your statement says; “Yes Jesus could have sinned the Scriptures read, Heb 4:15 "For we have not a high priest that cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but one that hath been in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin." How do you arrive, from this verse that Jesus was actually able to sin? And if this is your thesis do you also believe that God can be temped to sin as well? CDBJ |

2 | Could Jesus like Adam have sinned? | Phil 2:7 | koscheiman | 173873 | ||
No God the Father cannot be tempted to sin, but we must remember that Jesus was 100 percent man as well as 100 percent God. If He was unable to sin then He was not tempted as man is. | ||||||
3 | Could Jesus like Adam have sinned? | Phil 2:7 | CDBJ | 173883 | ||
Greetings; You say that God the Father can’t be tempted; is that suggesting then that the first person of the Trinity is not able to be tempted but the other two members of the Trinity can be, since you singled out only God the Father? I would imagine that you are using the following verse as your hypothesis but there isn’t any specific mention of any of the personalities of the Godhead? James 1:13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: Let’s not forget what follows that verse, if that’s the one you are using? James 1:14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Where does that place Jesus in “your opinion” with the lust angle with relationship to temptation? CDBJ |

4 | Could Jesus like Adam have sinned? | Phil 2:7 | koscheiman | 173996 | ||
There are three ways we are tempted and Jesus was tempted in these same ways, yet without sin, while in the flesh. While in His precarnate and postcarnate existence He as well as all of those of the Trinity cannot be tempted. | ||||||
