In Mark's Gospel, Jesus spoke the last words, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" which is certainly puzzling, especially in the light of the Trinity doctrine.

Matthew faithfully copies Mark, but the author of Luke was not prepared to do so, replacing these words with, "Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit." The author of John was generally copying Luke, but because he saw Jesus as truly divine, Luke's words were inappropriate. He chose "It is finished."

So it can be seen that God turned his back on Christ in the first two gospels, but not in Luke's Gospel or John's Gospel.

Why does God seem to enjoy the pain of others including the cruel and unusual crucifixion of His own son Jesus Christ?

God did not enjoy crucifixion of his own son. Jesus is the perfect lamb, the pure person. For him to die for our sins, he had to have sin. He literally had to become sin to save us. God can not be in the presence of sin, so when Jesus was crucified, he literally had to turn his back on him. He didn't want to, but he had to.


What did Pontius Pilate and Herod Antipas have to do with the death of Jesus?

A:In the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and John, Pontius Pilate alone tried Jesus and sentenced him to death, although most unwillingly. In the Gospel of Luke, Pontius Pilate was asked by the religious authorities to try and sentence Jesus but, being unwilling to sentence an innocent man and learning that Herod Antipas was in Jerusalem, sent Jesus to Herod to be sentenced. Herod, in turn, was unwilling to sentence Jesus and so left Pilate with this terrible responsibility.
