“The sun has risen. Christ has come. He is the king. The light covers the world. A return to heathen midnight is an impossibility. Those who walk in darkness now are doing so in a world suffused with light. This is hard to do — you have to remain blind, or hide in root cellars. There are ways to stay out of the sunlight, but they are difficult to accomplish. Not only so, but as the day passes, they will get increasingly difficult.” — Douglas Wilson, God Rest Ye Merry
Sin is getting more egregious and perverse as the remaining darknesses are increasingly pushed back into the darkest of corners, places, and expressions. The light is filling the room and the darkness is retreating to the darkest corners it can find. While the darkness we still see then is darker than ever, it is its last gasp. While it may feel like they've cornered the market, it is only because the corners is all that they have left. The corners consist of concentrated wickedness because the darkness is cloistered in retreat. And soon the light will fill the room.
