Why Have You Forsaken Me?
Note sull'episodio
In this episode of The Holy Espresso, Richard and Pastor Pedro walk through the final hours of Jesus Christ and explore what was happening physically, spiritually, and prophetically as He approached His death.
We discuss Jesus’ agony in Gethsemane, His prayer for the cup to pass, the meaning behind His cry of “Why have you forsaken me?”, the connection to Psalm 22, the tearing of the temple curtain, and what Jesus meant when He declared, “It is finished.”
We also take a closer look at the two thieves crucified beside Jesus. Why did one reject Him while the other believed? What can the thief on the cross teach us about grace, repentance, faith, and salvation? And what did Jesus mean when He promised, “Today you will be with me in paradise”?
From Gethsemane to Calvary, this conversation points us back to the heart of the Gospel: what Christ accomplished for us on the cross.
