Child Behavior

It's hard to imagine any child being perfect in his or her behavior. The Bible tells us that Jesus, God's son, was perfect in every way. In fact, He was called the Perfect Lamb in Rev. 5:12.

What does this mean? Because He was "The Perfect Lamb," He was chosen to be crucified for your sin and mine. Then, by believing He was buried and rose on the third day, salvation is guaranteed for all of us.

As an adult, we know that Jesus resisted temptation (Heb.4:15). When He was baptized, His Father (God) said, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased" (Mt.3:17). Yes, it is probable that as a child, Jesus was perfect in His behavior as well.
