Suicide of Evil

Just received a copy of John Piper's "Spectacular Sins - and Their Global Purpose in the Glory of Christ." Short, small-sized book.

Struck by this in the introduction: "At the all-important pivot of human history, the worst sin ever committed served to show the greatest glory of Christ and obtain the sin-conquering gift of God's grace. God did not just overcome evil at the cross. He made evil serve the overcoming of evil. Me made evil commit suicide in doing its worst evil."

Reread that.
