Why am I so abandoned?
Summary
The sermon's main theme centers on the profound sacrifice of Jesus, God's Son, who endured rejection and the torment of divine judgment on the cross. This act, foreknown by God and Jesus, was for the purpose of our acceptance and reconciliation. The practical takeaway is that Jesus' suffering and isolation were a substitution for our own distortion and disconnection, leading to our absolution and absorption of God's righteous judgment.
