That assumes that sin is real, when in fact it is not. Think about am all knowing powerful and loving God. Would he create a world where his children had any real possibility of suffering in hell forever, just because they wanted to experience something in the world he gave them...

No where does the Bible say Jesus sinned. Over and over again the Bible tells us the Jesus was completely without sin. The above are just a few examples, there are others such as Luke 1:35 (the holiness of Jesus), 1 Peter 1:18-19 (the Lamb without blemish), Acts 3:14 (the righteous one), and others
Many times, we think of anger as a selfish, destructive emotion that we should eradicate from our lives altogether. However, the fact that Jesus did sometimes become angry indicates that anger itself, as an emotion, is “amoral.” This is borne out elsewhere in the New Testament. Ephesians 4:26 instructs us to “be angry, and sin not,” and not to let the sun go down on our anger. The command is not to “avoid anger” (or suppress it or ignore it) but to deal with it properly, in a timely manner. We note the following facts about Jesus’ displays of anger:
Is angry a sin
Be ye angry, and sin not" (Eph.4:26). This is a command! It is not a defense for a bad temper. It is not an excuse for an explosion of bitterness from your bruised ego for personal rejection. I am talking here of Holy Anger. God gets angry:

No he was sinless. He was tempted many times but he was God himself so always had the power to overcome... and I cant think of one law created by the Church that makes me miserable. For a start I obey God's Law not the Churches. Christ's anger or dissatisfaction was with mankind and their failings. It was controlled, and to teach. I don't think anger is a bad thing or a sin. It's how we present it and whether it is necessary. We will always be upset with others, but the bottom line is if we can forgive.
As for N, geographic I wouldn't hang my whole argument on that!

Jesus never sinned. Getting angry is not a sin. You can sin when you get angry, but that is not always the case. When Jesus was angry, it was because of other's sin. Not His.
Here's a passage that specifically says Jesus didn't sin: "Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us continue to hold on to our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin." (Hebrews 4:14-15)
Oh, National Geographic says a ton of stuff about Jesus that is not true. The only material we have about Jesus' childhood is when he was twelve. And all that was discussed then was His speaking with the religious leaders at the Temple.

First of all, very very little is even mentioned of him as a teen, I believe just one instance where he stayed behind in the temple, so many people like to put things in the mouth of Jesus.
Jesus did not sin. He was of purer heart than to do so. But being Jesus he knew right from wrong, good from evil and he knew that sometimes it takes eradication to rid evil, and that is a strong command. Remember this, if you follow the first commandment, with all your heart and all your soul, you can not and will not break any of the other commandments.
What man or the church have determined to be sin, is not necessarily what you should be paying attention to. God spoke and it is written, listen with your heart, and discern the Truth as God gave you the means to do so. You need only speak with Him and listen with your heart to the inspired Divine revelation.

Anger is not sin. He did not sin. He was God in the flesh.
Swept:
read the rest of that you are quoting...Jesus also said sabbath was made for man not man for the sabbath. The Hebrews of the day were using the law to condemn which is all it does.
He fulfilled the law...the religious people were distorting the law. That's why he became angry!!

why he sin.
The Description of Sin is.
Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
I John 3:4
He not Transgress any law.
he Cannot sin because the Spirit inside of his body is a God.
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
Philippians 2:5
Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
Philippians 2:6
King James Version
But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
Philippians 2:7
King James Version

Nope, Jesus never sinned. Not once. It's true that everyone has sinned, but that's considering that "everyone" is from man. Jesus was born on earth, but his mother, Mary, had no sexual intercourse. God put Jesus in her womb, making Jesus the Son of God. God is holy, and holy means to be without sin. He can't even be near sin. Jesus is God in the flesh, so Jesus couldn't sin. He's sort of like the opposite of everything and anything sin stands for. The reason Jesus even came to earth was to sacrifice himself, the only thing worthy, pure, and holy enough sacrifice to pay off all of our debts/sins. Jesus had to be perfect, or God wouldn't accept him as the ULTIMATE sacrifce.
Jesus, however, was indeed pusued by Satan, the devil. Satan tried to tempt Jesus three times, just like we are tempted and trialed here on Earth. Satan failed in his attempt to make Jesus sin. People often mix this story up and say that Jesus gave in to temptation, but they're wrong. The story is in the Bible, somewhere in the New Testament. I'm sorry, but I can't really remember what book. If you look it up on biblegateway.com, I'm sure you'll find it, along with many other verses that prove Jesus was without sin.
I hope this helped and shed some light! If you aren't saved, I hope this has also showed you what a huge thing Jesus did for us. He was perfect in every aspect of the word, never doing one thing wrong. To give himself up like he did for my place, your place, and every other sinner's place on the cross took extreme faith and bravery.
Oh, and getting angry is not a sin, sorry to prove whoever wrong. Many, many people got angry in the Bible, and nowhere is it listed that people should not get angry. It does say, however, that one should be slow to anger, but that is simply a proverb in the book of Proverbs in the New Testament.

The writer of Hebrews says that Jesus was "in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin" (Hebrews 4:15). Jesus chose not to sin, though he could have.
Getting angry is not a sin.

1) the church's rules don't matter because that didn't exist yet.
2) the laws of the OT did matter, listed at the attached site.
3) being angry isn't a sin per se, its what you do with it, how you deal with it, and why that may or may not be.
4) yes he did. in fact the very thigns that many christians feel he did, were directly breaking some of the most fundamental and important laws.
5) claiming to be sinless itself, would be a sin.
