"On the cross, Jesus cried, ‘My
God, why have You forsaken Me?’ This proves He
was a fake. God forsook Him."
Jesus’ words recorded
in Matthew 27:46 and Mark 15:34 were the fulfillment
of David’s prophecy in Psalm 22:1. Verse 3 of
this psalm then gives us in-sight into why God forsook
Jesus on the cross: "But You are holy . . ."
A holy Creator cannot have fellowship with sin. When
Jesus was on the cross, the sin of the entire world
was laid upon Him (Isaiah 53:6; 2 Corinthians 5:21),
but Scripture says God is "of purer eyes than to
behold evil, and can not look on iniquity" (Habakkuk
1:13).
