I think the “new light” refers to the renewed light instead of the current darkness. For some of us God’s light is new.

What "current darkness"? You have the faith given to the saints, the gospel hasn't changed or gone away.

Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
