If Jesus is God, why does He cry out for help to God, "Eli, Eli, Lama Sabachthani"?
esus cried out to his God and Father because he himself, was not God. Jesus Christ could never have been Almighty God in any way, and never will be. To say that one of the persons of God became human and then turned off his powers as God so that he could experience suffering, is ridiculous, unscriptural, confusing and blasphemous. Some say that one of the three persons of God inhabited a human and then abandoned his abilities as God, while at the same time, remaining God as well as human! I invite everyone to please take the time to think deeply and objectively about the above sentence and then to honestly answer the following three questions: 1. How does it sound to you? 2. Do you think it would bring God and the Bible into disrepute? 3. Would this contribute to confusion or help people understand who God is and get close to him?
