(Heb 4:15 NKJV) For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.
Jesus walked this earth as a human being. Despite being deity, He left His throne to be born of a woman and live a life of humanity.
He experienced everything that we experience; pain, temptation, sadness, joy and much more. He understands what we feel each day, as we walk through trials and triumphs in our lives.
He had every opportunity to sin… to walk away from His purpose. Yet, He chose not to sin. Instead, He chose to fulfill His purpose here on earth and die in our place.
He walked this earth blameless and sinless, despite being human. Some people might try to say that this was because He was God and man all rolled into one. But the Word of God makes it clear that He was tempted and could have chosen to sin.
What an incredible gift we have been given, to know that Jesus loved us so much that He chose to fulfill His purpose and die in our place, offering us forgiveness for our sins.
We are truly a blessed people to have received such a gift from God.
