When God created light and declared it was good then darkness was known to be not good. This is a mighty picture of God coming on to the scene of nothingness. To understand God one must be able to understand all things that are not of God. For instance, to understand truth one must understand lies and so lies must be created. By the mere presence of God lies must be created to understand truth. The darkness, since it declared to be not good will hold all of these forces that will oppose God. These forces that oppose God must be for man to understand the qualities of God. For every quality of God there must be opposite forces or we could never understand goodness. God created evil and it resides in the darkness in many forms but remember; for us to understand God these forces must be. There is a gray zone in between the light and the darkness. This is where man resides. This is where God cast mankind to come to understand the difference between the two opposing forces. The gray zone is a horrible place; a battle ground, a mixing pot of good and evil but this must be for God to finish creating man. Jesus had to come to the gray zone. He didn't like it here and couldn't wait to leave. You and I are like Jesus. We want out of the gray zone and because of what Jesus did and us accepting we will get out. There will be many spirits that will not get out. When God removes the light then the gray zone and all who will stay in it will be in the darkness forever.
