He wont forsake you because He was forsaken. He became sin for us to bear the punishment for sin. The judge became the punished for sin.That's fine, you can believe God forsook His Son. I do not believe it. That's how I know He'll never forsake me.
God was separated from God? No. Christ became a sin offering and we are forgiven through His death on the cross, not separation.He wont forsake you because He was forsaken. He became sin for us to bear the punishment for sin. The judge became the punished for sin.
God took upon Himself to be separated from God, which is sin or spiritual death, We can only share in the physical death by Him being human, one of us, Being God He paid the price, being human we share in His death. We are forgiven by Him being forsaken.
capisce?

Luke 23:46-47 (KJV) And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.
Luke 23:46-47
Romans 8:3 (KJV) For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
Romans 8:3
I don't see it in Scripture. I used to believe it until I studied it out for myself. Christ was not forsaken and neither will we be forsaken. I was always told what you assert. I reject that Christ was forsaken. I'm confident that when a believer says God forsook His Son, the Holy Spirit grieves within them. Study it out, Christ was not forsaken.God is Holy and cannot abide sin. Jesus became sin, so separation had to occur. Spiritual death , even for us, is eternal separation from God. The one and only time the Godhead was separated.
That is why Jesus was forsaken.
The whole reason of Christs life, Israel , being saved, etc was because sin came into existence
Christ's death on the Cross was payment for our sin. He death on the cross was penalty for our sin. Isaiah 53 spells it out. But God never forsook Him. Christ's death ransomed us. The perfect and sinless One bore our sin and shame. But God never forsook Him. He raised Him from the dead to prove it. The Pharisees thought he was forsaken. God showed He did not forsake His Perfect Son by raising Him from the dead.Study complete.
If Christ was not forsaken, God can tolerate sin in His presence, Satan and us sinners can return to Heaven, Christ did not have to die.
Are you sure this is your position?
As a Baptist you believe this-way?, and from Oklahoma?

The truth, my friend, is the exact opposite. In precisely the same way that I know that God will never punish me because the punishment was inflicted upon the Lord Jesus, so I know God will never forsake me precisely because He forsook His own Son, 'that He might be just and the justifier of the one who believes in Jesus.'That's fine, you can believe He was separated from God. I do not. Not sure how someone can believe God will never forsake them, but Believe God forsook His own Son.
Uh, no it’s not.This thread is closed.
This is demonstrably illogical.so I know God will never forsake me precisely because He forsook His own Son
Brother, I've believed what you have been asserting for a long time. Then i studied it out for myself. We sing hymns that say, "The Father Turned His face away..." but the Scripture Says He *didn't* Psalms 22:24. God did not forsake Him. That's the beauty of the Resurrection and the guarantee that we will never be forsaken either. I believe most of the PSA and i believe in many aspects of Christus Victor and Ransom Theory, parts of each tell the whole story. I do not believe that Christ was forsaken. God can never cease to be God, nor can God ever be separated from Himself. This is totally illogical. I know, this goes against what you've always believed. Christ's Blood, His death paid for our sins, not "separation". That's not only illogical, but totally irrelevant. Scripture says over and over, Christ's Blood paid for our sin, Christ's death reconciled us to God. HE became a Sin OFFERING.I don't think you'll find it is. Think about it.
