Nietzsche called the greatest of all sins to be the murder of God (deicide). There was nothing more sinful than that. On the reverse, the greatest of all righteousness fulfilled was in the self-giving of the Son of God. This self-giving brought an end to the history of hostility between man and God.

How He does it is His business. || 'And He said to them, "When I sent you without money bag, knapsack, and sandals, did you lack anything?" So they said, "Nothing." (Lk.22:35) ||
- "But he spoke more vehemently, "If I have to die with You, I will not deny You!" And they all said likewise." (Mark 14:31). There are many times that we make strong resolves and many times that we fail. But, the Lord knew us even before we made those resolves, and loved us despite of our failures.
