There is no "what if".

Thank you. I hate that question with a passion. I've heard men say that God would have had to go with a plan B.

I believe the Lord Jesus Christ was impeccable (Incabale of Sinning). He felt the weight of temptation, but by virtue of the fact that God cannot sin and Jesus was God incarnate he could not act out on the temptations. Someone might respond that Jesus could have sinned by virtue of his humanity, but even though it is important that the two natures that of Christ be distinguished, the two natures cannever be seperated or divided, so if Jesus sinned in his humanity, the divine part of him would have sinned as well.

That does make sense...
then does that mean that God died on the cross??

Yes, He could have sinned. He was tempted and is able to help us with our temptations. He was/is human after all.
Bro Blume, I like your the explanations in your post. Another question I would ask is did Jesus have sinful flesh?

Jesus had human nature but NOT fallen human nature. No sin nature.
