The entire blasphemous article.

Jesus Christ is not a sinner. Even the Scripture presented defeats the premise of the article.

Heb 12:2
(2) Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

If the article were true, the Scripture would indicate Christ accepted the shame, but to the contrary He never accepted the shame, but patiently persevered through the ordeal, despising the shame. He was anything other than shamed by the ordeal, although many who do not believe think he was shamed in His thinking on the Cross.

His focus was upon His obedience to the Will of the Father and fulfillment of His Plan.

The judgment is forensic. Christ didn’t sin, nor did He become a sinner, but the sins of the world were imputed upon Him and the penalty of death executed as evidenced when Christ cried out, “Why have you forsaken me?”.

This strategic victory in the angelic conflict manifests the genius of God’s Plan. By remaining true to God the Father, God executed the penalty of sin for all mankind in one.

The entire blasphemous article. Jesus Christ is not a sinner.

Where on earth does this author state Jesus is a sinner? Paul states that Christ did become sin for us:

2Co_5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

It is this sin that is shame before God. It is our shame that Christ bore.
