He declined to throw the first stone at the adultress
He threw a temper tantrum in a temple, throwing furniture around
He encouraged people to not wash their hands before eating
He claimed, or at least refused to deny, that he was the son of god, a serious blasphemy

Funny how you Christians don't know basic facts about the bible and have not heard of these well-known episodes. I'm not going to give you the references. Read the thing yourself, then you might come to a different opinion of it. But if you get really stuck, pray. If that doesn't work, comb through my previous questions.

He made the laws up as he went and was careful to abide by them.
Much like the U.S. Gov't.

Noone can better testify about another's life than those who shared life with him and who, in some way or another, participated in his adventures. As far as I know, among all those who lived at the time of Jesus, noone has ever reported that He commited any sin, even that many people at that time were watching his every gestures and words. Note that I'm not talking only of persons of the Bible, but there have been other individuals(Historians...) who have have written about Jesus and no such things came out.

The Holy Bible says Jesus/God was without sin, so I believe it 100 percent

It states very clearly that Jesus was without sin in the Letter of St. Paul to the Hebrews, and I along with countless Christians believe it.
[Heb 4:14] Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession.
[Heb 4:15] For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has similarly been tested in every way, yet without sin.

Declining to throw that stone wasn't sin - it was Mercy
His temper tantrum in the temple wasn't sin - it was Justice
I don't remember him telling people not to wash their hands
His claim to be (and refusal to deny being) the Son of God wasn't blasphemy - It was fulfillment of prophecy ... not to mention - it was true

Jesus was without sin
He didn't decline to throw the first stone, he just asked a question and noone could say they were without sin, He had mercy on her
look at your first question then look at my answer then look it up, then look at the rest of your questions and look them up because im not going to waste any more of my time with them

You are confusing sin with temperament.
Showing displeasure is not a sin. Having an idiosynchrasy is not a sin because the intention to sin is absent.
You feel insult because you are going out of your way to look for sin.
The events you describe in your question are not sin.

Because the Bible says so. In 2 Corinthians 5: 21, it says "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him."

Sin is turning away from God. Jesus is God. It kind of logically follows then that Jesus was without sin.

Rev T L Clark is right on.
It's interesting that you recognize blasphemy as a sin but have no problem comitting it.

Why do you think that you are alive today? Because our Lord and Saviour gave up his own life (which he could have gave a resounding HELL TO THE NAW to) so that you and I could have a choice and choose everlasting life. Do you have faith? Do you beleive? I hope so. God bless and have a good life
