@hazlin @Tadano @ChristiJunior @micropenis @Frondeur @verita84_uwu My brother in Christ, I believe you are mistaken in your interpretation of this. Remember that Christ was quoting a passage from Psalms written by David that was previously seen as mysterious and melancholic but was actually a perfect foreshadowing of the events of Christ's crucifixion. I grew up learning the various interpretation's of this passage around God "looking away from Christ because he was so full of sin at that moment that The Father couldn't look at The Son", which, while emotionally moving, is borderline arianism and not nearly as correct as reality. He quoted that Psalm so that all who knew the scriptures would be amazed and terrified at the realization that the Messiah was here, and He fulfilled what was prophecied. I have a pinned post on this which I'll link below along with the art I made referencing it.

2 Corinthians 5
21 God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.
And, dying on the cross isn't the only way He sinned.
Have you not considered that the strongest rebuke in the Bible, comes to Job when he questions God for his treatment?
Mark 15
34... “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
Adam became sin by... sinning.
Christ became sin by... sinning.
I noticed everyone explains away whenever Jesus sins. But, He suffered such things for our sake. And, they always seemed to be intentional. For right after questioning God, He said “It is finished.”
To say sin isn't sin when Jesus does it, would be to exempt Him from living as a man, and being under the law. Who can fulfill a law if they are not subject to it?
It was by the Father's design that Jesus was brought into conflict with the Law, so that it should be put to death. Because, He suffers no accuser of His Son.
Both Abraham and Christ are our example, and not an example of someone who keeps the law and lives without sin. But, instead they are our example of being loved and carried by the Father. They are examples of being setup for success by the Father. As He too is able to show us this same love and sets us up for success.
People really get hung up on obedience. But, so long as they focus on obedience, their attention will only be on themselves, and they will miss the heart of God.

I believe you are in severe error in writing this. Christ was sinless; he had no original sin nor did he sin throughout his life (1 John 3:5, 1 Peter 2:22). This is why he was the only one who could bear the curse of the law for our liberation in the first place! Under the law, he fulfilled the law (Matthew 5:17-19)! Had he sinned under the law he would have been rightfully subject to death and consequently would not be capable of substituting for our sins (Romans 6:23). Becoming a curse for us refers to Christ bearing the sins of the world and taking God's wrath in place of the world, not taking the wrath due to his own sins (2 Corinthians 5:21).

Deuteronomy 21
22 If a man has committed a sin worthy of death, and he is executed, and you hang his body on a tree, 23 you must not leave the body on the tree overnight, but you must be sure to bury him that day, because anyone who is hung on a tree is under God’s curse. You must not defile the land that the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance.
Galatians 3
13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
To violate the Law of God, is to sin. He sinned for our sake.
