He was without any comforts of God – no feeling that God loved him – nofeeling that God pitied him – no feeling that God supported him. God was hissun before – now that sun became all darkness… He was without God – hewas as if he had no God. All that God had been to him before was taken fromhim now. He was Godless – deprived of his God. He had the feeling of thecondemned, when the Judge says: “Depart from me, ye cursed, ” “who shallbe punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord andfrom the glory of his power.” He felt that God said the same to him. Ah! This isthe hell which Christ suffered. The ocean of Christ’s sufferings isunfathomable… He was forsaken in the [place] of sinners. If you close with himas your surety, you will never be forsaken… “My God, my God, why hast thouforsaken me?” [The answer?] For me – for me. Robert Murray McCheyne
