How do we know Christ's nature was impeccable?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's impeccable nature is confirmed by His divine attributes and the absence of any inclination to sin.

The nature of Christ is impeccably established through His dual natures—both divine and human—united in one theanthropic person. As William G.T. Shedd noted, the human nature was united with the divine to ensure that the resulting person possessed a perfect human consciousness, free from sinful inclinations. Christ showed no sense of indwelling sin as mentioned, illustrating the absence of any draw towards wrongdoing. Furthermore, His divine holiness is intrinsic, ensuring that sin could not appeal to His nature, corroborated by various scriptural affirmations of His holiness.
