Many say that on the cross, God departed from Jesus as He ( God the Father) can not look upon sin.

So the flesh died.

Now I know that Jesus was speaking Psalm 22 when He said, “My God, My God , why hast thou forsaken me.” And perhaps He was turning people to this Psalm to proclaim WHO Jesus is. “ 22:23 Stand in awe of Him, all you descendants of Israel.”

Can you speak on the interchange at the cross and death and resurrection of Jesus? Was there a separation at the cross though Jesus is of highest value and infinite sacrifice , found in the blood of Christ.

Was God actually nailed on the cross Himself? As Psalm 22:29 says “All those who go down to the dust will bow before Him” ( God Almighty)

And Phil. 2:10-11 reinforce Every knee shall bow , every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father”

Tied to John 17:5 where Jesus prays, ”glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed" . And we know God shares His glory with no one!

Maybe this is explained by Christ emptying himself and taking the form of a servant and it’s all a mystery we just have to accept.

But did God the Father abandon union with Christ on the cross and grave… but perhaps reunite by the power of the Holy Spirit at the resurrection??

So can you speak on this exchange?
