Contributed by Mike Hamilton on Apr 17, 2003

When Jesus said, "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" was he asking a question about God’s presence? Or is it possible that he was making a proclamation? This sermon takes the position that Jesus was making a statement rather than asking a questi

“Forsaken? Or Exalted?” Matthew 27:46 (Read Matthew 27:46) Traditional Interpretation: at the moment Christ took upon himself the sin of the world, the Father in Heaven could not look upon the Son, and so he turned away, forsaking his Son. 3 Primary reasons for this view: 1. 2 Corinthians 5:21 ...read more
