Christ died for our sins. Did He himself have / inherit original sin?

No, I think not. But Christ is special, as He is the ONLY instance where the sins of the fathers could not be passed down, as His Father was not within the curse.

I think this should be taken quite literally:

Joh 10:15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.

Joh 10:17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
Joh 10:18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

1Jn 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

"No, I think not. But Christ is special, as He is the ONLY instance where the sins of the fathers could not be passed down, as His Father was not within the curse."

No doubt Christ is special, but how could He purchase our redemption if He did not have a 'sin nature' that could be submitted to the will of the Father?

Hebrews 4:15 - "For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin."

Clearly, if he did not have a 'sin nature', He was not "tempted in every way, just as we are".

Thank you -- as you correctly said, Christ did not inherit original sin (Iscool: take down notes)

And, yet, you say that His Mother was "in the curse", right?

And, you did say "Physical death is the consequence of original sin.". We have one instance where this statement is incorrect.

Finally, you misread John 10 --> Christ did not take His own life. He lay it down Himself, but we killed Him, He did not kill Himself. He died a Physical death (not a spiritual one too as the WOF Pentecostals say)

Joh 10:18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself.

Good point...Certainly worth pondering, again...
