Is Bible Correct When It Claims Light Was Created Before Sun. by foladara777(m): 11:28am On Dec 03, 2016
Science tells us that the sun is the major source of natural light but in the bible, God created light on the first day before creating the sun, moon and stars on the fourth day... So, where did the light come from if the sun was not yet created

3 Then God commanded, “Let there be light”—and light appeared. 4 God was pleased with what he saw. Then he separated the light from the darkness, 5 and he named the light “Day” and the darkness “Night.” Evening passed and morning came—that was the first day.
14 Then God commanded, “Let lights appear in the sky to separate day from night and to show the time when days, years, and religious festivals begin; 15 they will shine in the sky to give light to the earth”—and it was done. 16 So God made the two larger lights, the sun to rule over the day and the moon to rule over the night; he also made the stars. 17 He placed the lights in the sky to shine on the earth, 18 to rule over the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God was pleased with what he saw. 19 Evening passed and morning came—that was the fourth day.
Those verses are in the first chapter of the bible... Quick advise: if u want to defend a God, u would be able to do a better job by reading his book

My god... U are a lost cause... A verse says light was created on the first day, another says sun was created on the fourth day and u are still arguing that light was not created before sun... In what universe is 4th before 1st??
Even if u can't read and understand the bible on your own, didn't you at least do CRK in primary or secondary school??

Stop being deliberately ignorant. The passage also even suggest's the moon is a source of light when in reality the moon produces no light of its own

Nice question op. I've been wondering about this too recently.

Now, cant u see that this is a summary and explanation of the events which preceded?

Hence its start with "So."?

If this is too much grammar for u, then go back to secondary school.

Another example,
The same way,

Gen 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

And then

Gen 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

Look at these 2 scriptures.
Gen 2:7 comes after Gen 1:27,
But does that mean that God created 2 seperate men in the garden?

Is the second one not simply buttressing what was referenced earlier?

If you dont understand bible chronology, ask for explanation.
Or better still, use your google and learn.

Don't gimme that crap... Chapter one of Genesis gives a sequence of creation... Check any bible, its light, firmament, land seas and vegetation and then sun, moon and stars on the fourth day.
Verse 14 says
14 Then God commanded, “Let lights appear in the sky to separate day from night and to show the time when days, years, and religious festivals
The sun and moon were just created. In fact the bible claims the moon has light but science shows it only reflects light of the sun... Just the first chapter of the bible and there are already two errors

U simply mistook an butressing bible verse as a new fact and created confusion inside your head because u are not familiar with scripture.

And then u thought u have found something.
Sorry.

Yes. And The Light was the of men and in men that Darkness could not overcome. The Stars came with The Light and the Sun is just a star. It's also "The Dangling Sword" that God used and still using to prevent men from ascending anyhow to disturb Him in His GodSphere. The Science and the Scientists you talked about are Sub-Stars from The Light.

Have you ever come across where the Bible says Jesus was the light of the world? And, have you also come across where the Bible says Jesus was there before the beginning? Connect the dots.

Jesus is that Light. Again we are told, that wen we go in to Gods Kingdom, the sun shall no longer be the source of our light, but the Lord shall be that light.


The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.
Isaiah:60:19

See?

This is the light that was there before the Sun and Stars.

Felixomor and peacesamuel94 already answered scripture with scripture. We do know that English is not a language some find easy to understand but its something they should strive to understand. The word "SO" is an extension of a prior event and not a detachment. Plus the light did not have a designation until God said what it was and that was to function in the day.

If anyone cannot understand something this elementary they would then later claim they understand revelations and why God is "wicked" in their own eyes.

The answer has been provided. Any other question being asked is just to keep this DOA thread going.
