Today, reply is made to a question on why Jesus was born sinless. The origins of sin in the life of a newborn are inheritance that inclines and predisposes a child to gravitate to sin along with the increasing exercise of their own self-will. The birth of Jesus Christ occurred following operations of the Holy Spirit within a virgin who had been specially sanctified and prepared to be used by GOD. The divine plan to recover mankind from sin also involved providing rebirth as well as imparting fresh endowments of Spirit from the makeup of divinity. The Savior was to serve both as the Son of Man (Adam) and the Son of GOD. Jesus, therefore, was a union of flesh and spirit, and fulfilled all the criteria required for him to represent the entire Creation. Being twofold in the image of GOD, Jesus was an appearing of divine character, exalted nature, sacred process, eternal purpose, spirit substance, and sovereign will. The Son of the Highest was required both to embody sin on the cross, and endure mortality and death as a common condition resulting from judgment against sin. Mercy, already in place, would be enlarged to shield those who belong to Christ from the penalty of the second death. His anointing, ministry, and service was not merely to be that of a prophet and spokesperson from GOD, it was also to be that of a divine High Priest who presides over atonement and propitiation for sin. A fighter at “Yahoo Answers (India)” using the ID “Anonymous” (no profile information shared) posted the following:
Why wasn't Jesus born a sinner?
I thought we are all born a sinner anyway. Then why doesn't Jesus need a Saviour because He was born too?
Update: ohhhhh because He was born to a Virgin right? But we were not
Update 2: Also if we are all born sinners then why do all kids get to go to Heaven? Did they accept Jesus as their savior? they can't even talk...babies
THE GOLDEN ARROW: But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people’s: for this he did once, when he offered up himself. For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore. (Hebrews 7: 24-28, King James Version, KJV)

“Anonymous”, sin is not only a matter of what you do or say (works); sin is a matter of your makeup and what you are missing inside (sacred knowledge and Spirit). Sin enters a life at birth through inheritance, and growth along with learning. The consciousness and willpower of the living may become dominated by sin. Mature Christian believers generally agree that, since the fall of Adam, all human offspring now must exist within a sphere of life (we also say, environment) where sin operates continually. The living all are born having qualities and traits that readily respond to sin, yet, do not respond consistently to divine law, divine love, and aspects of divine Spirit. Sin opposes the continued existence of divine law, the Law Giver, and the full Creation. Even so, sin is no physical substance, or matter that may be transmitted through DNA. Nonetheless, created beings and living creatures receive the Adamic character, makeup, and nature as an inheritance from their parents. As children of Adam, many also become dominated by sin through operations of their own awareness and self-will. Sin may be called an “influence” that has not been created by GOD, and has no effect upon the divine will. Thus, sinners must be “born again” and receive a fresh endowment of spirit from the Creator. Included are faith, holiness, joy, longsuffering, meekness, patience, wisdom, and wrath against sin. Jesus Christ was born to further reveal divinity (i.e., make accessible, knowable, known, visible) using human form (we say, Incarnation). The Lord was to accomplish multiple eternal purposes of GOD that would present the image of GOD, release created beings and living creatures from sin, that establish a “new creation,” and proclaim a new heaven and earth soon to come.) Even so, I trust this fragment will be useful. Be it unto you according to your faith.
