Of course he was an amazing person, and had the ability to overcome anything, because he was literally born of the spirit, but at the same time he was as we are, "fallen" or susceptible to temptation and sin. If he were perfect, and could not sin, then his overcoming death and the sin of mankind would have been no big deal and the events that went on in the Garden of Gethsemane wouldn't have been as they were. I'm sure many believe differently, so you'll need to do some searchin. Good luck.

The Jews in the day of Jesus used an "unblemished animal" for a sacrifice to ask for forgiveness for a particular sin. Of course, the great sin of Adam and Eve and all of mankind could not be forgiven by a mere animal sacrifice...or many sacrifices for the matter. Something more was needed. A human sacrifice. Again, not just any human would do, being we are all sinful. It had to be one without sin....an unblemished person. Jesus was that sacrifice. Jesus was the unfallen one.
Adam and Eve were the only other people who were of that state of being, but when they disobeyed, they lost out on that privilege and were of a sinful nature.

the genuine question is why can we fall, considering the fact that issues do no longer circulate till they have some thing to push or pull them. What pulls us, the earth, and each little thing else are magnetic fields that are extra advantageous the extra effective an merchandise is and the shorter the gap like a commonplace magnet. we are pulled to the earth using fact the earth is massive, and the earth is pulled by capacity of the sunlight using fact it incredibly is a lot larger in spite of the indisputable fact that it is likewise pulled, yet much less, to the moon too, and each little thing else relative to the gap and length, to orbit around the sunlight.

It had to be of "unfallen" man or His death on the Cross would've been a needless waste! He was born the way he was to avoid being born under the sin-curse of man placed upon us at the expulsion of Adam and Eve from Eden. However, since He had to cloak Himself in flesh to actually walk as a man, He could do and act as a mortal would, though in many scenarios it obviously wasn't necessary; it was merely to be our example.

Good question. The Son of God assumed the unfallen human nature.

There sort of was an Adam and Eve. I mean there were probably a bunch that developed independently in different areas of the world, but there certainly were a few 'first' homo sapiens. But the idea that they 'fell' is ridiculous. Unless you're talking about the invention of religion...

Jesus was truly human but without sin as was Mary
Jesus is also referred to as the new Adam.

Jesus was pure and sin free. Does that sound like a fallen man to you? No.

in the Bible it indicates he is the only man that never sinned so yes he was perfect in every way and he did the will of our father. Now on the other hand Job was considered a perfect man by God himself but was still a sinner it states that in JOB.
