If jesus was god why would he cry out for god ALLAH.
Quotes of when jesus was being crucified according to the bible:
Mark 15:34
And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying: ELOI, ELOI, lamma sabacthani? Which is, being interpreted: My God, My God, Why hast thou forsaken me?

mathew 27:46.
And about the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying: ELI, ELI, lamma sabacthani? That is, My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?
http://www.newadvent.org/bible/mat027.htm
Look at the word ELOI and the ELI they look very similar.
If they are said out loud they sound like the word ALLAH, very similar. it sure doesn't sound like jahovah or god to me.

WHy are you saying wird things.
Why would jesus say that, I mean according to the trinity he is torutred.
Does that sound like a man who is being totured with his promition.
Why would he say that to god if you claim he is god.
HE IS BLAMING HIM SELF.

Most people who hear the story don't know the Bible very well. Jesus is quoting the 22nd Psalm which starts out My God, My God, Why hast thou forsaken me.... If you read it, it is a perfect description of the moment which is the Crucifixion. It is not a lament, nor a moment of sour grapes or doubt, but an extraordinary statement of vision, fearlessness, and fulfillment of prophecy. This story is one of the most beautiful in all of religious writing, stating for all who can see that even death has no sting, that there is absolutely nothing to fear.

Christians believe that Jesus was 100 percent human.They also believe that He is divine, that he was one with God.
It is not logical but faith that makes them believe this.It is quite a primitive way of thinking.In fact all other major religions are more rational and advanced in logic.
Christianity is what is called a mystery religion.Similar to some African tribal religions or Zoroastrianism, it is based on an almost type of magical thinking.That is why you have seen so many weir rd Christian cults in the news and why they will always occur.
But whether it is illogical or not.It is one of the world's great religions and should be respected as such.Most Christians don't have any problem with the issue you mentioned.They believe Jesus was God and that is that.

God is spirit.
Jesus is the 'word' made flesh.
Christ was at his times bearing the sins of the world.
What he is saying, and which was certainly said in his native Aramaic, is quoting from the 22nd Psalm.
To understand the signifigance of these sayings, you MUST read Psalms 22.
The scriptures were fulfilled in his words and deed on the cross.
My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me... -Psalms 22:1
The rest of the Psalm prophesies the story of his crucifiction, every detail is there.

Matthew 5:17 “Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them, but rather to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until Heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of the pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until all things are accomplished. Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the Kingdom of Heaven. But whoever keeps the commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven.”
Rom 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
Rom 1:23 And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Rom 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up, to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves:
Rom 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
Rom 1:26 For this cause, God gave them up, unto vile affections: for even, their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.
Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over, to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient.

You are really twisting scripture to get Allah out of that. Eli is much closer to Elohim. Jesus suffered agonies in everyway for you. He the Son of God died as a human man for you. He suffered physical, spiritual, emotional torture. The Father turned His back on Him because the Father could not look at sin. And Jesus "became sin for us." In that moment He was totally alone in a way that no human being will ever know. He bore the brunt of the penality of sin and because He was also God He overcame sin and its eternal penality at the Resurrection.
On a human comparison: how could the egg shell say to the yoke "why are you so far away?" Is it not the same egg?

Did you know that the Bible wasn't written until hundreds of years after Jesus was crucified? And who wrote it? Men.
Do you also know how many times it was edited and translated - many, many times. Keyword: Edited
Did you know that reincarnation was in the original Bible? It was edited out in 550AD.
Need I say more? Don't take each word literally.

No matter how you look at it The character of God in the Koran and the character of God in the tenach and the bible are different. The God of the bible fogives sin and remembers it no more when confessed. I believe the Koran God does not forgive or forgets the sin even when it is confessed !!!

It's almost as if the arabic term comes from the aramaic word for god - AlÄhÄ - which is also the origin if the hebrew word.
Is this the best you can do?

it sounds closer to Elohim, one of the names of the Hebrew God. also one of the common languages of the time was Aramaic so it is not implausible that he MAY have said Allah, which means God. Also it is important to note that Mohamed came around about 603 years later.
to your later point, as he is dying he is also being cut off from God (temporarily) so is it surprising that he makes an outcry of feeling abandoned?
