Hi Elise:
The Bible actually refers to the darkness as the absence of God, such as the “outer darkness”. See Matthew 8:12, 22:13, and 25:30.
Also, please consider 1 John 1:5…
5. And this is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you,
that God is light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.
NASB
Thus, darkness can only be the absence of God.
We hope this helps, and we look forward to hearing from you again.
In the Love of the Lord,
Frank and Mary
