Seems quite logical <| sep |> While Jesus was sin free and resisted temptations , I think it ' s also important to note how He was also human in order to help establish a deeper connection with Him . Look at when He prayed to God to avoid Crucifixion Matthew 2636 , He didn ' t want to die , but if it was God ' s will , it shall be done . Even to Son of God is afraid to die , but at the same time wants to please God and fulfill His will like the rest of us . He ' s also capable of anger , obviously when the Church was turned into a market place . I feel as though without acknowledging this humanity it ' s impossible to have a deeper connection to God simply because you feel outclassed . How could I follow in the path of God if I was somehow not afraid of death and occasionally gave into anger , as is human to do ? Jesus showed that was okay , it ' s who we are . As you say we need only have faith in Jesus and be good to ourselves and others .
