    Whereas in us this took place at different times, in that we were darkness, and are made light: but of that is only said, what it would have been, had it not been enlightened. And, this is so spoken, as if it had been unsettled and darksome before; that so the cause whereby it was made otherwise, might appear, namely, that being turned to the Light unfailing it became light.

    reasoning
    Both entities represent the same theological concept of 'spiritual darkness'. The labels are nearly identical ('darkness spiritual concept' vs 'darkness spiritual'). Their descriptions align perfectly, referring to a 'state of spiritual ignorance' or 'absence of truth'. The properties also show strong consistency, with both having an antonym/opposite related to 'light' and describing a negative spiritual state ('troubled soul' vs 'separation from God'). The relationship indicating divine action (transformation vs God dividing darkness) further supports them being the same concept.
