"And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" (Matt 27:46 KJV)
God and sin cannot coexist. Sin has and always will bring about separation from God! No need to single out this sin over that sin, ALL unrighteousness is sin! It was necessary for Jesus to be forsaken because He became sin for us although, He knew no sin. Thankfully, He was forsaken, but not forgotten. He rose from the grave with all power to save! In our sins we are separated and forsaken. . . .In His Grace we are forgiven and never forgotten!
PRAYER: Lord, how grateful we are for your grace! Were it not for your grace, we would forever remain separated from you. Where sin abounded, however, your grace did much more abound! Amen!
2 Cor 5:21. . . . For God took the sinless Christ and poured into him our sins. Then, in exchange, he poured God's goodness into us! TLB
