Jesus is described in Scripture as the unblemished lamb, fully sinless, as stated in 1 Peter 1:19.
The sinlessness of Christ is a core tenet of Christian theology, underscored by various scripture passages. In 1 Peter 1:19, He is referred to as a 'lamb without blemish or spot,' affirming His perfection and worthiness as the ultimate sacrifice for sin. Hebrews 4:15 adds that Jesus 'was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.' His sinlessness is crucial because only a perfect, sinless sacrifice can atone for the sins of others. This truth propels the Gospel message, as it establishes Jesus not only as our Savior but also as our Great High Priest who intercedes for us, fully understanding our struggles yet remaining entirely righteous.
