Sinless

It is possible to walk without sin. If Jesus was impeccable and could not sin, we have no model to look to. Jesus could sin but He didn't. That gives us a model.

The early disciples walked from that model without sin. This is why John could write 1 John.

1 John 3:5-6 - And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin. Whoever abides in Him does not sin.

1 John 3:9 - Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

The Son of God was manifested to destroy both the nature and the works of the devil. (1 John 3:5, 8)

The blood of Jesus removes you from sin, the stain of sin, the sting of sin, the effects of sin, the reminder of sin, the mark of sin and even the action of sin. - Dan Mohler

What a privilege! Train me in righteousness, Jesus.
