When Jesus cried out "My God , My God why have you forsaken me..." quoting Psalm 22 was He just simply QUOTING that Psalm or was He "forsaken" by God? Now I don't think He was "forsaken" by God. This is my second question regarding this as I'm having a discussion on this with someone & they adhere to the "Jesus died spiritually" heresy. I qouted 3 scriptures to refute that & they simply asked me "THen when Jesus cried out "my God..." what do you call THAT? If He was separated by God wouldn't that be spiritual "death"? If not what would you call that?".
Anyways I don't adhere to that garbage but what DID happen when Jesus cried out? I suggested in my ignorance & what I used to believe that perhaps He knew He was about to die (physically) & simply wanted to died quoting the Word. I suggested perhaps Psalm 69 could have been another Psalm to quote from. Anyways how would I respond to that statement?
