'And the light shineth in the darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not.'
Outside of God is darkness.
We all know atheists and pagans who flounder in the darkness. They worship their careers, their wives, a set of political or religious rules, their 'life', their happiness, or whatever.
Often these dark souls appear to be nice people, and many of their ideals/idols such as Climate Change, Equality, Democracy, Revolution, Jihad, Nationalism, Feminism, may appear quite worthy.
But too often it is a mask that slips away all too easily to reveal their hatred of other people, their hatred of life itself.
Idealists and idolaters often give the appearance of light, like Lucifer, but that is only in the hope of drawing you into their own private pit.
There is only one true God, the Living God, the God who is the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.
It is the true God, the true Light, towards whom we must focus our thoughts and our prayers. Only the Living God can be the Light that guides our way. An idol will only lead us into darkness.
Follow the light, but do not expect others to walk with you, for 'the darkness comprehended it not.'
