XV. _Of Christ alone without Sin_.

Christ in the truth of our nature was made like unto us in all

things, sin only except, from which he was clearly void, both in

his flesh, and in his spirit. He came to be the Lamb without spot,

who, by sacrifice of himself once made, should take away the sins

of the world, and sin, as Saint John saith, was not in him. But all

we the rest, although baptized, and born again in Christ, yet offend

in many things; and if we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves,

and the truth is not in us.
