We Christian writers must paint evil with the blackest of brushes, not to sow fear, but to call out the monsters to be scattered by our light. If Satan cloaks himself as an angel of white, intent on deceiving the world, any attempt on our parts to minimize evil is only complicit with his strategy... Turn to the light; donβt fear the shadows it creates. β¨ Ted Dekker (2005). The Slumber of Christianity: Awakening a Passion for Heaven on Earth, p.69, Thomas Nelson Inc
