How do we know Jesus is sinless despite being tempted?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible confirms Jesus' sinlessness in Hebrews 4:15, stating that He was tempted in every way, yet did not sin.

According to Hebrews 4:15, Jesus was indeed tempted in every way as we are, yet without sin. This emphasizes the mystery of the dual nature of Christ—being fully divine and fully human. Although He faced real temptations from Satan, He did not succumb to them, demonstrating His perfect obedience to God’s will. His sinlessness is essential for Him to be our Savior, as only a perfect sacrifice could atone for the sins of humanity. Thus, His ability to empathize with our struggles while remaining morally blameless sets Him apart as our Advocate and High Priest.
