How do we know that Jesus did not sin?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture confirms that Jesus did not commit sin, as demonstrated in multiple passages indicating His sinless nature.

The sinlessness of Jesus is affirmed throughout Scripture. In 1 John 3:5, it states, 'In Him is no sin,' reiterating that He was without moral failings. Hebrews 4:15 further supports this by describing Him as 'tempted in all points like as we are, yet without sin.' This reveals that while He experienced human temptation, He never succumbed to it. Additionally, passages like 1 Peter 2:22 emphasize that He 'did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth.' Collectively, these affirmations establish a theological basis for why He could be the perfect sacrifice for sins, as only an innocent one can bear the penalty for the guilty.
