Matthew 27:45 - 27:46

Gospel of Matthew
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg

In this study of Matthew 27:45-46, Steve Gregg discusses how rejecting or postponing God's claim may lead one to not count on anything. He explains that Jesus' death does not render the possibility of accepting God's claims impossible, as Jesus bearing the sins of humanity was foreshadowed in the Old Testament through animal sacrifices. Gregg also delves into the meaning behind Jesus' saying on the cross, "My God, why have you forsaken me?", which can be understood in various ways.
