(Quote from https://realreality.org/downloads/how-god-will-transform-you/)

God’s Light shines in the darkness, but the darkness doesn’t eagerly embrace it and hold tightly to it. The darkness tries to shield itself from the Light. When those who walk in darkness continually refuse to accept the Light or let the Light destroy their darkness, God eventually lets them have their darkness. Then, they become increasingly deaf and blind. They didn’t want the truth, so they believe the lies that come their way.
