      Well Jesus’ traditions outside of ‘Christianity’ aka apocrypha normally describes him as a sinner. He literally became the devil respresentation in the roman state. How?

      He donned the name Pan. Pan already being a god associated debauchery and wild life. Remember this is what Jesus was to the roman elites. Hence when he took that name, it was also used against his image. 200 years later and christianity gets canonized but the imagery already formed.

      I’m saying all of this to tell you, Jesus believed in sin. He commited it, but by wanting to cease it he at least became in control of himself. Rather than his want leading him. Sin isn’t bad, but it can become a prison. Hence the gnostic genesis tradition.
