    I appreciate your knowledge. But I am confused.

    "Father, father, why hast thou forsaken me?"

    Doesn't this indicate abandonment?

    The "likeness" refers to knowingly going against the expressed will of God, not the Law.
    The unsaved are storing up wrath for each sin, and they will be punished according to that debt. God's justice demands it.
    Yet another word play effort, when a person is punished for a sin, they are paying for that sin. The word (G5099) means to pay penalty. Thus the debt owed to God is the recompense due for our sins.
