AUTHOR STATES.....”it was impossible for the light not to appear. It appeared by the sheer necessity of consequence.”....

Author has some clarity issues to be sure as “Light” was not a ‘consequence’.....nor did it simply 'appear' as a consequence.......it appeared as the direct work of God in response. For God, who said, "Let light shine 'out of darkness'...

[kosciusko51]

Consequence - something produced by a cause or necessarily following from a set of conditions.

I think you and the author in agreement.
