Other than the usual excuses of supernatural creation, How possible was light created before the sun? We know light comes from the sun. Period! but, how is it possible for light to be created before the sun? Please dont give me flimpsy answers like, the light was created enroute to reach earth at the same time when the sun was being created. I will not take answers like that.
thats a damn good question, lol. Here's what i googled.. Its a theory straight
from a creationist. Please watch it---its only 1:15 long, and it makes sense
basically day one was the creation of "time" - god created day and night as a time period.
Day four was the creation of the actual stars.
The closer you look, the more you lose the bigger picture

Easy... God Himself was the light. Rev. 22:5 says, "and there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever."

Did God create Himself?
The difference between a fool and a wise man is that a wise man is both but a fool is just a fool
The Bible says God is the one who was, who is and who is yet to come. He has neither a beginning nor an end. His name is "I am that I am."
Your earlier post equates the light of the first creation day to God.
"And God said, let there be light; and it was so".
Your claim amounts to, "And God said, let there be God, and it was so".
The light of the first day was just that, LIGHT. The forth day God created the sun, the moon, and the stars and gave them the ability to be in control of the earlier on created light.

Good question. Another question is to do with the stars, which god put in the sky on the 4th day. The nearest star to earth is 4 light years away, meaning that it would have been visible from earth 4 years after it was created. Others are thousands of light years away, meaning they would only now becomiing visible to us on earth. But they were all immediately visible then!
In my books, this is yet more evidence that the Bible is nothing but man-made fiction. Of course at that time man had no idea what a light year was, so he just wrote that story and the ancient men just accepted it.
