Matthew 27.45-46 The Journey of the Cross went straight through Jesus I could never myself believe in God, if it were not for the cross . . . in the real world of pain, how could one worship a God who was immune to it? The forsaking was separation from God. This is what awaits all who reject Jesus. On the cross Jesus suffered an eternity of hell for a moment so you could have the moment of salvation for eternity He is the God who is never far away. Our sin is terrible. God’s love is amazing. Salvation is a real.
