Was it POSSIBLE for Jesus to sin? Did Jesus have a conscience?

[Telstar]

In His human nature, it may have been possible for Jesus to sin, but it would have been completely impossible due to His Divine Nature.

But it begs the question of whether or not we can be tempted to do something which we cannot possibly do?

Just because someone is tempted by the Devil, doesn’t necessarily mean that they must be capable of succumbing to that temptation. Nor, does it mean that they must be able to achieve what that temptation poses to their mind. Hitler was tempted to take over the entire world, but could he have ever really achieved that goal? I might be tempted to eat a whole gallon of ice cream, but I sincerely doubt that I would ever be able to do that, either. So, your premise that a temptation must be something that’s achievable by the person being tempted, is completely invalid.

The Devil will try to tempt every single human being a thousand times a day. He tempted Jesus because he suspected that Jesus might be the Messiah. He could easily see that Jesus was a very holy man and might in fact be the One that was promised, but His true identity was hidden from the Devil. The Devil tempted Him as a means to figure out if He was the Messiah, and if He was, to try and get Him to turn evil. He had no idea that Jesus was actually God, so his temptations were totally useless against Him.
