Psalm Of The Forsaken Series

Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Apr 3, 2007

This series looked at the cross from the OT point of view. Psalm 22 is a perfect prophecy of what would happen to Jesus on the cross. His forsakeness is our assurance we will never be rejected.

I remember him giving the crowds the choice of what to do that day. You see it was customary for ...read more
