"Salvation is of the LORD." -Jonah 2:9

  The Sinless Saviour   by D.G. Miles McKee    I John 3:5 describes Jesus by saying, “in Him is no sin.” In I Peter 2:22 we read of Jesus that, “He did no sin.” Then, Hebrews 4:15 declares – “He was without sin.”   Also, Hebrews 7:26 affirms, “He was holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners.” In addition, 2 Corinthians 5:21 tells us that “He knew no sin.” Notice this verse does not merely say that He did no sin, but that He knew no sin.
