AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 27:46 About the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud [agonized] voice, "ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?" that is, "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?" [Ps 22:1] |
Subject: Did the Holy Spirit depart from Christ? |
Bible Note: Ed, I liked your answer and believe it truly reflects both the letter and the spirit of biblical truth. To embrace the absurd belief that Jesus' death on the cross was anything but physical death is ignorance; to teach it is arrogance. At the moment when Jesus took upon Himself the sins of the world, God did forsake Him, but only temporarily. This does not mean, and could not possibly mean, that Jesus Christ died in any spiritual sense. Any heretical doctrine that holds that Jesus died spiritually on the cross or at any other time, would throw the doctrine of the Trinity into chaos. Thanks, Ed, for defending once again the faith. --Hank |
