ANSWER: No! 2 Corinthians 5:21 says that Christ “knew no sin.” It was because of this that He could be “made to be sin for us.” This passage does not teach that He became a sinner or even that He literally became sin. It is teaching that He suffered as though He were the sinner; that He only, because of His sinlessness, could do such and be the one perfect sacrifice (sin-offering) whereby “we might be made the righteousness of God in Him!” Those who teach that Christ became a sinner at the cross are in error!
