R.C. Sproul: “Nowhere in Scripture is the reality of Gods wrath - TopicsExpress



          

R.C. Sproul: “Nowhere in Scripture is the reality of Gods wrath more sharply manifested than in the forsaking of His Messiah. To be cursed of God is to be cut off from His presence and all of His benefits. The Incarnate Christ who enjoyed intimate personal fellowship with the Father, such as no man had ever enjoyed, was suddenly and completely cut off. Once the sin of man was imputed to Him, He became the virtual incarnation of evil. The load He carried was repugnant to the Father. God is too holy to even look at iniquity. God the Father turned His back upon the Son, cursing Him to the pit of hell while on the cross. Here was the Son’s ‘descent into hell.’ Here the fury of God raged against Him. His scream was the scream of the damned. For us.” [Tabletalk magazine, “My God, My God, Why Hast Thou Forsaken Me?” (April 1990), p. 6].
