When Jesus was on the cross, the Father ...His Father, looked away. Many people look at why?

Some people have said that God is too holy to even look at sin, and Jesus became sin on the cross ...so His Father could not look, and that's when Jesus spoke, "Why have you forsaken Me?"

Well, perhaps my understanding is not as mature as others ....but, by putting down my thoughts, it may help me reason it out. (And I trust you won't 'put down' my thoughts.)  

It seems to me that if God can't look at sin, how does He, and how has He judged it.  Adam and Eve didn't say, "Who told you that?  I know you didn't see it."

When people say all our sins ...past, present, and future, were placed upon Jesus on the cross, do they take that to mean that He felt our sin?  I would say that He felt our sin from the very beginning.  The Old Testament of the Bible shows that our God is a caring and compassionate Creator.  For those who think otherwise, what does the verse "Jesus wept", mean?

I would think the worst part is not our sin, but our neglecting to come to Him for forgiveness.  So, why do we neglect to come to a loving Father?  Is part of it ...because we don't want to accept what He would desire for us to do?  To ask for forgiveness requires that we admit we did something wrong.

How else would Jesus feel the burden of our sins ...take on our sin, or 'become' sin?

If Jesus felt all the thoughts of a murderer or thief ...wouldn't that be the same as He had said about already committing in our heart the sin?  Jesus gave the perfect sacrifice because He was without sin, so how could He have become all that sin before He died?  It wouldn't be a satisfactory sacrifice, would it?

On the cross, Jesus cried out, "My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?"

It has been said that since the sin of the world was placed upon Jesus, that He became sin ...and the Father could not look upon sin, so turned away.  

Now, their is a lot of building that one does with this idea.  The Father and Son had never been separated ...is what most people would accept.  I can only imagine ...because all this is really too deep for me.  But, as we were created in His image ....I see the heart He has given me as a dad. And I would find it unbearable to watch the event of Him being whipped, beaten, nailed to the cross ... and the summation of all that torture and suffering.  I also see an act of God sparing that sort of pain in an account with Abraham.  I don't think God felt it would have been healthy for Abraham to lead Isaac to his death ....nor for Isaac's last memories to be of what his dad led him into.  As we see, God spared him that ...by providing a lamb.  

With Jesus being born a baby and becoming a man ...there was still the Father watching.  As a man, life is much different, but what wasn't different ...was that they continued to be One. Perhaps Jesus would not have died if the Father had not turned away.

Or it could be that, simply put ...sin is separation from God. The wages of sin is death.  And to die, Jesus had to be sin ...or be separated from the Father.

All that being said ...or not said,

However we look at it ...it is important that we look to what we 'become'.

And we are to become believers, followers of Jesus ...and try not to take our eyes off of Him.
