Why Did Jesus Say 'My God, Why Have You Forsaken Me?' — The Answer Will Shock You

Why Did Jesus Say "My God, Why Have You Forsaken Me?" — The Answer Will Shock You On the Cross of Calvary, Jesus Christ cried out the most terrifying words ever spoken: "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" — "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?" This was not a cry of confusion. It was not a moment of weakness. It was the sound of the eternal Son of God bearing the full weight of your sin and mine — and being crushed under the wrath of a holy God so that you would never have to be. In this powerful sermon, we explore the shocking truth behind this cry from Psalm 22 — a prophecy written 1,000 years before crucifixion even existed — and how every detail was fulfilled with surgical precision at Golgotha. We examine what it truly means that God "made Him who had no sin to be sin for us" (2 Corinthians 5:21), why the Father turned His face away from His own beloved Son, and why this moment of ultimate forsakenness is actually the greatest news you will ever hear. Drawing from the powerful insights of Charles Spurgeon, the Prince of Preachers, this message will challenge comfortable Christianity, expose the danger of secret sin, and lead you to the foot of the Cross where real transformation begins. Whether you are a new believer, a seasoned Christian, or someone searching for truth — this video will confront your heart and offer you the hope that only the gospel can give. Jesus was forsaken once so that you would never be forsaken. The veil was torn. The way is open. The question is: what will you do with this truth?
