Hello steemians it’s another monday of 2018 and to keep the trend going I’ll be posting on the #dailycelestialchallenge by @sirknight and today’s theme is darkness.
Darkness as a phenomenom has always been marked as the direct opposite of light.
It is the cause of everything negative we have faced during our stay here on earth.
Very easily we can relate darkness to evil and satan the devil.
Even our Lord Jesus condemns darkness as it can be seen in the bible (Acts 26:18).
Satan has always sought out to wreck the human race by raising up agents of wickedness since when humankind began.
SATAN CONTROLLING PEOPLE AND FILLING THEM WITH DARKNESS
Through out time, there have been some remarkable events which have shown high level of wickedness in men.
I will be listing out some on them.
- Andrew Philip Kehoe (February 1, 1872 – May
18, 1927) killed his wife and 43 other people
(including 38 children) by setting off bombs in the
Bath School disaster on May 18, 1927 before
committing suicide near the school by detonating
dynamite in his truck, causing an explosion which
killed several other people and wounded more. He
had earlier set off incendiary devices in his house
and farm, destroying all the buildings, as well as
two horses and other animals.
- The infamous 9/11 terrorist attacks. On 11 September
2001
Where terrorists hijacked four aeroplanes and
deliberately flew them into targets in the United
States of America. These acts of terrorism killed
almost 3,000 people and triggered the subsequent
conflict in Afghanistan.
IMAGES OF THE 9/11 BOMBING
- On August 6, 1945, during World War II
(1939-45)
an American B-29 bomber dropped the
world's first deployed atomic bomb over the
Japanese city of Hiroshima. The explosion wiped
out 90 percent of the city and immediately killed
80,000 people; tens of thousands more would later
die of radiation exposure.

350,000: is the Population of Hiroshima before the
bombing, of which 40,000 were military
personnel.
140,000: is the Estimated death toll, including
those who died from radiation-related
injuries and illness through Dec. 31, 1945.
In everything we should always desire peace and always remember to show kindness, because we all know that the only way to kill darkness in our hearts is to constantly show kindness to our fellow humans.
Galatians 1:4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:
Jesus Christ came to this world to save us,so let's accept him as our lord and saviour because the world we live in is full of evil.

You are correct Juderoyal - there is much darkness and evil in the world. And you are correct in pointing it out. Before we can fight it, we must first acknowledge it.
Thank you.
SIRKNIGHT!
Exactly!. We have to first acknowledge the fact that we are just human and that we have to battle this evil force present in our world called darkness.
Thanks for your great observation @sirknight
Acknowledgement is the first step to solving our problems, great post @juderoyal.

No need to be frightened.
We just have to encourage peace, so we can reduce the emergence of events like these.

Since the devil himself is the king of this world, evilvil and darkness will continue to rule this world @juderoyal
Not withstanding, we also have to brace up and battle this darkness that's encroaching our world!.
