Link: The most glorious act in history: “It would be unjust for a holy God to withhold infinite punishment for sin. It would be equally unjust for God to accept sinners into everlasting blessing apart from restitution for their treason. Therefore the death of Christ, the infinitely holy Son of God, is the most glorious act in history because it upholds in perfect harmony both the righteousness and the mercy of God.” — John Piper
