Martyn Lloyd-Jones:
"I remember a man a few years ago asking me, 'You know, I never understood why the church calls Good Friday Good Friday - why not Bad Friday or Tragic Friday. Surely, it is the worst thing that has happened in the history of mankind, and yet you call it Good Friday.' That is a good way of addressing this question. Do you realize that Good Friday is Good Friday and that it is the best day the world has ever known? I am not referring to the men who cried, 'Away with him' or to the men who put him to death, but I say that what happened on that day is the most wonderful thing that has ever happened - Good Friday, glorious Friday!" (From Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled, digital p. 1581)
Burk Parsons: "[Today] is Bad Friday for the Devil."
