Two Spiritual Realms of Light and Darkness - 1 John 2: 7-11

Light and darkness clearly opposites within two spiritual realms such contrast between the two split down the middle to be true There's no truth like God's truth for it rules with authority divine look out to see its shining light so clear being from the vine This world loves to tell lies sinfulness brings utter disgrace which ultimately means death guilty the verdict on their case Spiritual vision required so much seeing eternally for God's glory God's gift of imputed righteousness makes salvation a wondrous story Spiritual darkness comes pitch black blotting out any light there at all the arch-enemy loves to keep us dark full of evil that results in the fall ("Beloved, I am writing you no new commandment, but an old commandment that you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word that you have heard. At the same time, it is a new commandment that I am writing to you, which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining. Whoever says he is in the light and hates his brother is still in darkness. Whoever loves his brother abides in the light, and in him there is no cause for stumbling. But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.") 1 John 2: 7-11 ESV
