A Very Certain Call
http://voiceofvision.blogspot.com/ 2008/ 05/ very-certain-call.html
My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? (Matthew 27:46 – ESV) This cry from Jesus illustrates the depth of His suffering as He felt Himself regarded as sin though He was sinless (2 Corinthians 5:21). We are reminded of John 3:16, Isaiah 53, and 1 Peter 2:24 as we see the Son of God bearing the sin of the world. This cry of desolation comes at the close of the three hours of darkness. However, it was not only a seeming cry of desolation but also a declaration. Jesus was not simply playing a role, not only acting out a part. No, His pain and suffering were very real, but even amidst this agony He knew what the conclusion would be.
