The Impeccable Christ

W. E. Best is a Baptist pastor and an excellent teacher of the Bible. The author chose this title (not to sin) to describe the Christ because it expresses the divine truth that Christ could not sin for the reason that as God He was perfectly holy and as man He was perfectly holy. Holiness is far more than the absence of sin; it is positive virtue. The Lord Jesus could not sin because the days of His flesh meant only addition of experience not variation of character. Holy humanity was united to Holy Deity in one indivisible Person the impeccable Christ. It could not be otherwise else the holy Deity would have been defiled by any unholiness in the human flesh. This book slays completely Satans lie which says that Christ was human therefore He could have sinned but did not. Yes He was tempted (tried) in all respects according to [our] likeness apart from sin. However the trial or test was to demonstrate His perfect holiness that regardless of stress or trial it was impossible for Him to sin. In short but powerful sentences the author comprehends the mysterious and marvelous Person who is the Christ. He covers such pregnant subjects as The Eternal Son of God; The Son Declares the Father; The Mystery of Godliness; The Incarnation; the Virgin Birth; Christs Human Nature; Christs Human Soul; Christs Human Growth; Christs Baptism; Christs Temptation; Christs Impeccable Life; The God-approved Man; Christs Prayer Life; The Drawing Power of Christ; Christs Discriminating Message; Christs Miracles; Christs Death; Christs Headship; and Christs Kingship.
