Reading: Hebrews 4:14-16; 1 Peter 1:17-21; 2 Corinthians 5:21

Devotional: Recent surveys reveal that many Americans, even professing Christians, believe Jesus sinned like everyone else. This belief dismantles the entire gospel. If Jesus sinned, He needed a savior Himself and could not be ours. Scripture is unequivocal: Jesus was tempted in every way yet remained without sin. He was the spotless Lamb of God, the perfect sacrifice. Peter reminds us we were redeemed not with perishable things but with the precious blood of Christ, "a lamb without blemish or defect." Paul declares God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us.

The sinlessness of Christ isn't a minor theological detail—it's the foundation of our salvation. Today, anchor your faith in this truth: Jesus lived the perfect life you couldn't live and died the death you deserved.
