    Have you ever felt like someone was avoiding you? They don't pick up the phone when you call or when they see you coming they turn and run the other way. Don't feel bad, people try to do that with God. But it's pointless to think we can really avoid God.

    The Fourth Word From The Cross: "Eloi, Eloi, Lema Sabachthani?" Series

    Contributed by Ravin Caldera on Apr 18, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 24,057 views

    This is a reflection on the forth word from the cross, which is a very difficult passage for exposition. These words give a deep expression of faith ("my God, my God"), universal cry for justice ("why") and, words of deep mystery ("have forsaken me").

    And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, "Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?" which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" (Mark 15:34). As Mark stated, about Jewish ninth hour or in our time three o'clock there was darkness over the whole land—out of darkness and despair ...read more
