I Will Fear No Evil!

In his book, Spectacular Sins: And Their Global Purpose in the Glory of Christ , John Piper says the following about evil:

"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. He made evil commit suicide in doing its worst evil." 

Stunning!
