31. Yet, I suppose, you will arm yourself
also for your godless contention with these words of the Lord, My
God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me St. Mark xv.
34.; St. Matt. xxvii. 46.? Perhaps you think that
after the disgrace of the cross, the favour of His Father’s help
departed from Him, and hence His cry that He was left alone in His
weakness. But if you regard the contempt, the weakness, the cross
of Christ as a disgrace, you should remember His words, Verily I say
unto you, From henceforth ye shall see the Son of Man sitting at the
right hand of power, and coming with the clouds of Heaven St. Matt.
xxvi. 64; cf. xvi. 27..
