Science is known as a branch of knowledge, information, and facts. Historically, many believers  were taught by the church to view science, especially astronomy, as evil because most scientists  were atheists who rejected belief in a supreme being and the idea that life exists only on Earth.  The fact that some maybe atheist doesn’t mean God will not use them to establish the fact that  he is God, the creator of the universe. 

In fact, during the age of technology science has unveiled the truth of God's word in many areas  of scientific study. Because of past fears we are afraid to embrace science as a tool to reveal the  truth of some of the mysteries of the Word of God. Because of Christianity’s refusal to move  forward in seeking the face of God we have remain stuck in the ordinances, commandments, and  doctrines of man. 

Reference Colossians 2:20-23 

There is power in knowledge. Not the knowledge that makes us feel like we are more than  someone else. The power of Godly knowledge shows love and edifies. Throughout the gospels  Jesus is calling out to those who are of the light to seek his face. Informing us that we are the  children of the light and not of darkness. "To walk in the Light as he is in the light."  There is nothing wrong with acquiring knowledge from other sources like science. However,  make sure that you are rooted and grounded in your faith because Satan is said to come as an  angel of light possibly deceiving the very elect. Therefore, we must be of a sound renewable mind.  

Now, according to 1 John 1:5 God is light. So, once again the light spoken of in Genesis 1:3 isn’t  speaking of the spiritual light but visible light. Let’s look at the creation or production of visible  light by allowing science to teach us.

Man, universal for both male and female, have only been on earth for about 300,000 yrs. Man was  created after the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction, the last recorded extinction which destroyed  the dinosaurs and many other species and types of plant life. 

Visible light is known as a Photon. It’s a tiny particle or bundle of electromagnetic radiation.  Matter exists in four states: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. Everything visible in the universe exists in one of these four states.  

The sun is the largest form of matter in our solar system. It’s a ball of super-heated gases in the  form of plasma. At one time I thought it was a big ball of light ignited by gas. To my surprise I  learned that the sun is a constant exploding nuclear bomb. 

The inner layers of the sun are the Core, Radiative Zone, and the Convection Zone.” The outer  layers are the Photosphere that can be directly seen. The Chromosphere which is above the  Photosphere. The Transition Region which is between the chromosphere and the corona. The  Corona, which is above the outermost layer of the sun, the photosphere.  

Within the sun’s core nuclear fusion is taking place. Hydrogen atoms, the solar energy of the sun,  are fused together by gravity producing a tiny packet of energy called a photon of light, which is  smaller than an atom and has no mass. Photons travel at 186,000 miles per second, faster than  anything else and they never stop moving. 

The sun's mass makes up over 99.85% of our solar system. It takes that tiny packet of energy  called a photon almost a million years for it to reach the Photosphere, the visible surface of the  sun. Even though it is traveling at 186,000 miles per second. Therefore, the visible light we are  viewing today was produced close to a million years ago. 

A Photon starts out as a gamma ray, electromagnetic radiation of high frequency and high  energy. You wouldn’t think traveling at a speed of 186,000 miles per. second it would take a  photon that long to reach the sun’s surface, its ultimate destination. However, as a photon  leaves the core of the sun it runs into a dense soup of hydrogen atoms called the Radiation Zone  which is 400,000 miles deep. This zone is denser than led and is over 12.5 million degrees. This  layer of the sun is made up of plasma, which is the fourth part of matter. 

Once this tiny packet of energy called a photon reaches the Radiation Zone it’s bounced around  from one hydrogen atom to another for 400,000 miles. This consistent bouncing occurs because  the Radiation Zone is filled with positive and negative charged plasma particles and photons  have no electrical charge nor mass and cannot be held or fused by these plasma particles. 

Each time plasma particles randomly tries to fuse with a photon, its energy level is reduced. For  almost 1,000,000 years the photon slowly progresses forward until it reaches the Convection  Zone, the next layer of the sun. 

As the Photon reaches the convection zone its radiation energy level has been decreased from a  gamma ray to an X-ray. The Convection Zone is 125,000 miles deep. Temperatures fall to extreme 

lows, below 2,000,000°C. Causing Hot plasma bubbles to move upward to the next layer of the  sun. A good example of this is the bubbles that form from a pot of boiling water. 

The Photon enters the Convection Zone and is absorbed like steam in a bubble by the atoms  which carries it to the next layer of the sun. This trip only takes about a week. The photons are  carried like a conveyor belt within the convection zone by the plasma particles. 

The photon has reached its desired destination; the sun’s surface called the Photosphere. When  the plasma particle releases the photon from the convection zone, Its energy level will have been  depleted from a gamma ray to an X-ray and now to visible light that allows our eyes to behold the  Lord’s marvelous works each day. 

In 8.3 seconds, visible light reaches the earth. In 80 minutes, it reaches Saturn. In 4 hrs. it  reaches Neptune. In 18 hours, it reaches beyond our solar system and is literally able to travel  throughout the universe. 

Without photons, (visible light) life could not exist. The human body emits, communicates with,  and is made from Biophotons, which is the light in our cells and higher intelligence.  Man was created after the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction that occurred 66 million years ago.  Many are familiar with this extinction because, as was stated, it was during this period that the  dinosaurs were eliminated. It was not until approximately 65,700,000 million years later that God  created Man who has been in existence for about 300,000 years. These are recorded records of  events that must be understood while studying the scriptures.  

The sun is 4.5 billion years old. Upon calculation, it is evident that the sun was neither subject to  extinction nor re-creation. Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is 13.8 billion years old and still existed  during and after each of the five extinction periods of earth. Therefore, the light that was spoken  in Genesis 1:3 is not the creation of the sun which manufactures Photons, visible light. So,  what’s happening here? 

When Heaven rejected its demonic waste onto the earth, as a result darkness from the fall filled  earth’s atmosphere. And as was stated previously, the impact threw trillions of tons of rock and  dust into the air. The sky is blotted out by the soot and matter of the earth. So, the sun is no  longer shining brightly on the earth’s surface. Water levels increase as heated rocks fall back to  earth, setting much of the unsubmerged land on fire.  

Plants need photosynthesis, sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water.  Without this vital energy source many species died out. With their food sources gone plant eating  dinosaurs starve to death. The waters increased above the remaining masses of land, and  darkness was upon the face of the waters. 

If an asteroid was to hit the earth, we would not just suffer from the shockwave but from sudden  temperature change from the lack of visible light. It is not that the sun stopped emitting light  during this era. Darkness covered the earth’s atmosphere hundreds of times thicker than a rain cloud.  

When God said let there be light, The Holy Ghost removes the matter that was blotting out visible  light from the atmosphere; and the renewal of life began. 

"And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness." 

Genesis 1:4 

Sanctification is a word in scripture that I became very familiar with as I continued this study. It’s  also known to many as sanctified’. In this verse you are witnessing the beginning of the story of  salvation. In the earlier verses, Genesis 1:1-3 a Heavenly explanation is given of antiquity – aforetime, earliest time. 

Genesis 1:3 isn't speaking of the creation of the universe. It is speaking of the renovation of  heaven and the earth after the fifth extinction. Now let’s look at the spiritual side of the above  text.  

The word sanctification comes from the Greek word “hag-ee-as-mos”, and means purification,  (The state), have purity, holiness.  

Reference 1 Peter 1:13-16.  

Hagioi is the Greek word for ‘sanctified’, or ‘holy ones. We as Christians are called Saints  because of this. What we are looking at is not just the natural separation of light from darkness,  but the spiritual sanctification of THE LIGHT, FROM THE DARKNESS. It’s understood that there  was a natural separation.

However, the spiritual mystery of salvation starts here. 

In the gospel of John 1:4,5 it reads “In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light  shineth in darkness; and the darkness understood it not.” In the natural world there is no life without  the presence of the visible light of the sun. The same is true in the spirit world. There is no  spiritual life without the spiritual light of truth which came through Jesus the Christ who is the  Way, Truth, and Life. Prophecy is being spoken here during the renovation of the earth. The spirits  of the deep are awakened but unable to understand the mystery that is slowly coming to life. “Remember the terrible trembling of those in the world of the dead below the mighty oceans. On the  surface of the ocean, God has drawn a boundary line between light and darkness.” 

Job 26:5,10 CEV
