Why did Jesus ask why have you forsaken me?


Jesus Christ was separated from God because He became sin for those who had sinned, even though Jesus never did a wrong thing. He was punished as if He broke all ten commandments even though He had never broken one single command of God. When forsaken by God, separated by the sin He substituted Himself for, having became sin for us… He clearly Identified what happened asking why have you forsaken (abandoned me spiritually and physically) but never lost His faith, God (for he asked), or in His work of saving the lost.


The Father of All, God raising from the dead...as proof He is the Author of Salvation to all those who obey Him, Hebrews 5:8-9 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; 9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;


Jesus never did a wrong thing and offers you a way to be taught to never do a wrong thing again…and a way for all your wrongs to be forgiven and reconciled to God…that is good news…blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness…for they will be filled.

Why did Jesus ask why have you forsaken me? a short read to know why...

Joh 12:44-48 Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me. 45 And he that sees me sees him that sent me. 46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. 47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. 48 He that rejects me, and receives not my words, hath one that judges him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.



Jesus does not punish the evil but grants a opportunity to repent and reconcile to God through the words He spoke to His Apostles who taught us and revealed the New Testament of Christ…which is the New Agreement between God and mankind commonly call the New Testament (Covenant) of Christ. Jesus will keep His children safe, and Jesus is not slack concerning His words…He is ready…. willing…able…to uphold and keep His word. Jesus does not think evil but always does what is best for your soul…listen to the way Love or Jesus can be described…substitute in your mind only, the word Jesus for love and red this passage…



1Co 13:4-8 Charity (Jesus) suffers long, and is kind; charity (Jesus) envies not; charity (Jesus) vaunts not itself, is not puffed up, 5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, (Jesus) thinketh no evil; 6 Rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Charity (Jesus) never fails: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.


Jesus never violated any of the Ten Commandments and summarized them as Love God first and your neighbor second…You realize this means Jesus always loved everyone souls as if He had sinned their sins? He does not think evil and tries to grant repentance to all those who want to reconcile with God our Creator…Jesus lets you judge yourselves by the deeds you have done to others…listen…



Mat 7:1-6 Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye meet, it shall be measured to you again. 3 And why behold thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but consider not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye. 6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.



Why correct a sinner who does not see his sin? Focus rather on yourself and be the best Christian you can be…even David the man after od’s own heart…said do not stand in the way of sinners…Jesus does not stop people from sinning or doing evil…He uses words and persuasion to convince them to never do a wrong thing again…We judge ourselves by how we treat others…do you forgive? Or hold a grudge…I forgive always…but limit my presence…Listen to what happens to those who do not obey Jesus the Author of Salvation (Heb 5:8-9) …



Rev 21:5-8 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. 6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning, and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. 7 He that overcomes shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. 8 But the fearful (cowards), and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.



Father, please forgive us for being rash and judging others having condemned ourselves…please forgive them and show us mercy that we may have our souls deepest needs met for forgiveness and reconciliation with you and our fellow man, in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.




How to be great in God’s eyes…we are just babies in diapers before our creator…


From the day we are born we learn how dependent we are on others. When I child is born the child is born with no knowledge of good or evil. The child must learn how to tell the truth and not participate in a lie. Most learn how to lie before they learn to tell the truth unless they are raised by parents who teach them the knowledge of good and to shun evil. Adam and Eve when they ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, instantly knew all there was to know about good and evil. However, when they had children, Cain and Able, who did not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, they too were born with a blank page or without any knowledge of good or evil.


Adam and Eve had to teach their children right and wrong. Parents today who have children must teach their children to have morals, virtues, faith, and good ethics or they will have no knowledge of good but only the evil they experience from the power of a lie. Would it have been great to never have heard a lie? We would have only known the truth, and knowledge which was good concerning the truth. We would have no knowledge of evil. We are truly just babies in diapers before our Creator. Think about this…our Creator created the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Everything we know was created by our Creator and we as little children have to go to our maker and ask?


Jesus the Christ is the Truth. Listen…to what Jesus told Thomas…Joh 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Jesus will as a dad; help his children who practice truth and handle the truth right. Jesus says, Mat 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Do you want to know how to live your life right? Do you want to know how to feed yourself right? Do want to know how to raise your family right? Jesus says, if hunger for right more than food then He will fill your ways. Do you want to be right with God and your fellow man?


Mat 18:1-5 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? 2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, 3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. 4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receives me.


Luk 9:46-48 Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest. 47 And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by him, 48 And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.


Will you receive your children in Jesus’ name? Yes or no. Adopt a child in Jesus’ name? Will you teach them, Jesus Christ died on the cross and was raised from dead and to love your neighbor as yourself to your children too? Yes or no. Jesus said if you do, then you will have both the Father and the Son. Jesus promises to those who are faithful in the truth these words, Joh 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.


Father, we are babies in diapers trying to feed and take care of ourselves, please have mercy and meet our deepest needs, help us to live our lives right with and raise our children in the care of Jesus Christ, in Jesus of Nazareth’s name (Acts 22:6-7) Amen.
