“Will God Forsake You?”
Jul 20, 2025 • Dr Sam Murray
Today, we delve into the profound mystery of Christ's sacrifice on the cross, focusing on His heart-wrenching cry: 'My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?' This powerful moment, prophesied in Psalm 22 and fulfilled in Matthew 27, reveals the depths of God's love for us. We explore how the holy nature of God necessitated this separation as Jesus bore the weight of our sins. This ultimate act of love challenges us to consider: How do we respond to such sacrificial love? Are we living in a way that honors this immense gift? As we reflect on Christ's willingness to be forsaken so that we might never be, we're called to deepen our faith and share this transformative message with others.
