Christians, Jesus was sent to die for your sins, but yelled, "my god, my god, why have you forsaken me"?

I agree the book is full of holes, and contradictions, among the ashes and coal a few diamonds of wisdom. According to the story, Jesus was merely reciting a psalm, and they overheard him when he muttered that part. If you want some good stuff check out Jordan Maxwell's site.

+Yes, it does seem hard to understand doesn't it. The problem is we are only finite Creatures, so we find it difficult to understand the spiritual, infinite dimension where God lives and works.

Jesus Christ was both 100% God and 100% man. If you can grasp that, you have it. It was God who died on the Cross for us, but God is a Spirit (John 4:24) and a Spirit cannot be crucified, so God begot a human body (which was Jesus Christ). Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ was filled with the Holy Spirit beyond measure, so you see God was IN CHRIST reconciling the world unto Himself (2 Corinthians 5:19).

Jesus was so badly treated even before His crucifixion, that He actually had to will Himself to stay alive to finish the job of our forgiveness and redemption on the Cross and not until all was accomplished did He give up the ghost, but in the meantime, we need to understand the TERRIBLE AGONY He suffered, physically, emotionally and spiritually FOR US WHO WERE HIS ENEMIES AT THE TIME.

When Jesus Cried out to God the Father, it was because Jesus took on ALL OF OUR SINS AND TRESPASSES and His physical body was in agony carrying all that sin for us. God the Father is so holy that He cannot look upon sin and therefore in His pain and anguish He cried out to His Father because He felt forsaken. We should understand in our humanity how Jesus must have felt in His humanity. Don't forget that He lived and was tempted in all the same things we are; how would we have felt in His place. Think about that and you will understand that is how Jesus felt also, in absolute anguish.

You have to realize what is about to happen. Jesus and God have always been together but now when Jesus takes his last breath his mission isn't over he spends the next three days in hell preaching to the captives and when he comes back from the grave it says he led the captives free. So for the first time God could not look upon his son because Jesus was for those three days in the presence of pure evil.

Even our knowing a thing does not mitigate its frightening impact upon us humans.

Even with our specific missions in life, we are often afraid along the way. His mission was to redeem us by His death, but it was in no way a pleasant prospect.

Jesus was unique. Both human and divine. His humanity suffered for us but He was never forsaken because He was innocent. And the prospect of death, the consequence of sin, is unsettling for the guilty and the innocent. Consider yourself, for example, under penalty of death for something I caused.

This is the story of redemption and the price that was paid.

I hope you've never been so hurt or so sick that time passes slowly. What Jesus experienced on that cross was excruciatingly painful, and He endured that pain for six loooooong hours. He knew that the moment He was nailed to that cross, His purpose was accomplished, and that He could die. God the Father was and is in charge of the timing for all important spiritual events. When Jesus cried out, He was crying out to the Father not to let Him linger in physical torment. That's what He meant. Finally, God the Father decreed it was time, and Jesus died physically.

Glad I could clear this up for you.

properly, at first, there are 2 different places the place Jesus calls the father "His God". yet in addition, the father additionally calls Jesus God and Lord in Hebrews a million:8-10. Is the father above the Son? No. Is the Son above the father (i gets to John 14:28, do not issue)? No. Now, why did Jesus say this? It has to do with Jesus having a Father and Son dating with God. Jesus is in a manner, showing admire for the father, via calling him "My God". He does not deny his very own deity (John 8:fifty 8, John 17:5, Mark 2:28, Mark 12:35-37). "yet another question I even have is the place in the Bible does Jesus certainly say to worship him? " John 5:23 "so as that all and sundry will honor the Son on an analogous time as they honor the father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the father who despatched Him." Now, if Jesus have been basically a Prophet, Messenger, or something comparable, how ought to he say to Honor him like the father? To honor him with the aid of fact the father, is to handle him as a equivalent to the father. an uncomplicated Prophet asserting this, may well be stoned to death as demanded via the Holy Torah. Now, for John 14:28: enable me ask you a query, is Jesus asserting the father is larger in essence OR authority? Authority, Jesus claims equality with the father in John 5:23. "I recommend no offence as quickly as I say this yet in my view Christianity is a faith that publicizes to have faith in one God yet chop up him into 3 areas and says that one section is larger than yet another." We have faith each guy or woman in the Trinity are equivalent, in essence. "God is lots extra beneficial than guy, he's the almighty and can't be defined as a human." Ughhh, we've faith God became a guy, we don't think God is a guy. "additionally, who certainly wrote the bible?" many human beings, Prophets, Kings, Apostles, and so on. "and can you verify that it is the unique revelation of God?" sure. "seem what number alterations of the bible there is, sure the message in all of them is the comparable yet whilst it is so desirable why is there not one version that has been preserved?" a million. we've 8,000 unique Greek manuscripts from the 1st and 2d centuries, and 15,000 different manuscripts in distinctive languages (Syriac, Armenian, Latin,Coptic, and so on) that have been preserved. 2. maximum of our translations are techniques-blowing, and alright translated.

Jesus did die and suffer for our sins. However when he took our sins on himself. He became the ultimate sacrifice. While he was carrying the weight of our sins our heavenly father's presence could not be with him. When it was finished he was fine.

This is the human aspect of Jesus that was suffering for us. intense pain was there. That what we do also in such circumstances. The Father delivered His eternal son for death for us. The Son,even He knew about but He felt it that moment

No; you haven't read Psalms.

"My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me" is the opening to the 22nd Psalm. He was teaching His last lesson to those gathered.

Edit: Thumbs down for what I can prove is in the Bible and where? Says a lot about someones desire to learn something .

If Jesus/god is the same one entity (as Christian claim based on the assertion that there is only ONE god, and that Christianity is monotheistic), then if the same ONE entity died, do our logic tell us that it is DEAD, unless something is performed by another different entity?

Therefore, if Jesus/god died, how could a dead entity resurrect itself? This could not be done or the story of Jesus is just a myth.

But IF Jesus/god just "played dead", then it was not a sacrifice. How could a god "play dead" and lie to all humanity that he sacrificed himself? Such a lying god is not worthy of worship!

IF Jesus/god truly died, then the Christian god is dead - it no longer exists. To resurrect, Jesus/god need other gods to resurrect him, so other god(s) who resurrected Jesus (if it happened) would still be greater than Jesus/god.

Are Christians making wild claims like my god died but can resurrect itself? In the same manner, they could make the claim, "my god self-created himself out of nothing"?
