The people who were trying to make this world worse… are not taking a day off. How can I? Light up the darkness.”

The people, who were trying to make this world worse… are not taking a day off. How can I? Light up the darkness.” – A New Commentary by Bryan Kemper « Social Justice Begins in the Womb – Daily Pro-life Updates from the BK Lounge: Darkness is not the opposite of light, it is the absence thereof. Darkness cannot exist where there is light. Darkness cannot overcome light unless the light retreats. The Light will always defeat the darkness; God will always defeat evil. We must carry the Light of God. Christ, into battle and never retreat.

Retreat and doubt are crippling the church, as we seem to want to hide the Light in fear of offending the darkness. I hear so many people who claim to be followers of the Light, too ashamed to shine that light fully because we might just offend the darkness; we would not want anyone to be turned off by how bright our Light is.

This is a cop-out, a lie straight from the pit of hell. Of course the darkness will be offended by the Light: the Light destroys, exposes, makes vulnerable the darkness and is painful to those who remain in that darkness.
