"What is the reason why God abandoned Jesus and turned away from Him on the cross?" @ WWHSS (Alpha)

✔ Answer:
Jesus was abandoned by God on the cross because He took upon Himself the sins of the world, which is an infinite punishment that only God can bear. Jesus became sin for us (2 Corinthians 5:21) and as a result, God turned away from Him in His wrath towards sin. However, this was only temporary as Jesus rose again on the third day, proving that He had conquered death and sin once and for all.
