comfort for the devil
An ancient Christian legend
When the Son of God was nailed to the Cross and died, he went straight down to hell and set free all the sinners there in torment. And the Devil wept and wailed for he thought he would get no more sinners for hell.
Then God said to him, "Do not weep, for I shall send you all those who are selfrighteous in their condemnation of sinners. And hell will fill up again till I return."
