In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth . Gen 1:1

Note it was not Heaven that was in darkness but the earth . Gen 1:2

For that heaven needed no sun or moon for God was the light thereof .

It was the earth that was in darkness and needed heavens light .

And it was not God that was in darkness but man fir " God is light and in Him there is no shadow of turning "

Genesis 1:2 is the recreation of the earth . Genesis 1:1 was the primary creation of both .

The Spiritual and earthly . For all things were made by Him both visible and invisible .

The earth is the Lords .

And God is the "God of all flesh".

He did not need permission to bring about change and always brings light before He starts to work .

The Lord when He walked this earth did not seek permission either to go and do good .

And when challenged referred back to His Father and to what was written .

Man was created in the image if God but he is BORN in the image of Adam .

Thus " shapen in iniquity".

We are by the fall and because of Sin more children of darkness than we are of light . Though Man was created for the Light . Fir shine a light into a man's eyes conscious or not and his eyes will respond to it . Put a man in a place with no light for long enough and he will suffer . We were created for the light .

Did not God command the light to shine in the darkness ? Even of our own hearts ? Fir by nature we are " children of disobedience " children of wrath" which is why we MUST be BORN again not of that corruptible seed but if the incorruptible seed which is the Word of God":

The entrance of Thy Word bringeth light".

Then God begins to Work .

" But this is the condemnation said Jesus ."The light has come but men love darkness more than the light ".

To love your sin more than righteousness is ruin . All have sinned that is not so much the problem but rather it is the will.

God is not willing that any should perish." But that is His will.
