Christ's impeccability is affirmed by His divine nature and the theological interpretations of Scripture.
The doctrine of Christ's impeccability is supported by the understanding of His divine nature. The Gospel of John reflects on this truth when Jesus states that the 'prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me' (John 14:30). This means there is no sinful trait in Christ that aligns with Satan or sin. His perfection is essential; He had to be without blemish to be an effective substitute for the sins of His people. The Scriptures consistently affirm that Jesus was made in human likeness, yet He remained completely sinless, as seen in 2 Corinthians 5:21, which states, 'For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin.'
