When God supposedly cooled this chaotic mass and formed the earth, then said, "Let there be light", was light not propagating throughout the universe prior to this? Prior to the cooling of the earth?

What's petty Ouros is you answering everyone of my questions with a supposition. You must be agitated. I am happy to provoke you. You must be somehow intrigued to answer all these questions of mine that appear to irritate you. Thanks for the comment.

No there are far older stars.
The sun wasn't born it condensed out of nebulous gas and dust.
The universe is so large it is possible to see back in time ( and space) to objects like quasars that have not existed for billions of years.
God doesn't exist hence never said anything

Probably not and why would you think it would be? The Bible doesn't really tell us much about the universe at large, probably because it's not meant to. It's meant to tell us about God and our proper relationship with Him.
Keep that in mind and you'll find The Bible to be far more erudite and less confusing.
Why would anyone think that God created the entire universe for us? We are but one creature in the entire vast universe thingy. I can only imagine some of the wonders that must be out there. Sure we were created in His image but to imagine that we are His only concern is...again...egotistical and humancentric to an extreme.
Isn't it interesting that the non believe who is trying to discredit the believer comes up with these astounding ideas about our world and it's place in the universe. No, our sun was likely not the first star. Also our sun is not the center of the universe. Human beings are not the center of creation.
Stars are born, they live for a time and they die. Why wouldn't they? Do not the grasses of the fields do the same? Do not humans also? Why wouldn't stars? They were all created by God.

God made the sun and the moon and the stars on day 4. It does not say what the source of that light was from day 1.
One way that many Christians have harmonized Genesis 1 with current scientific theory is that the days are representative of long eras of time, and are told from the perspective of one standing on the earth. At first you would not see the sun, etc. While I think this is possible, I tend to believe the 7 literal day theory.

Of course not, that would completely disintegrate the claims of Creationism. But, as a return from sarcasm, is it possible that the vast area around the "formless earth" was filled with a cloud of gas that blocked the light of the stars which were so far away? Not that it matters, no one was there to see it, and the story was passed on by a man who supposedly went up on top of a mountain and met with God. Don't you think they chatted about more than just 10 laws while he was up there? He sure was gone along time...

That is a difficult question. Though my belief has always been: God said "Let there be light"... and thus was the "Big Bang". It wasn't until later that He created the Sun, the Moon, and the other Stars. As to whether Sol was the first, I do not know. But I think that will be one of the questions I ask upon my death.

Yes, to me it's plausible that the whole universe was created. There are infinite numbers of stars that have been proofed to be older than our star known as "the sun." have a great day and thank you for this posting.

No it was more likely the last.When God said let there be light ,was not when the sun was created only when the vapor layer was separated enough to let more light penetrate,before it rose high enough it produced thick cloud cover.

No, according to how we reckon the age of stars, our sun is only about 5 billion years old, there's plenty of other stars out there older than that.

no God created the universe of stars.
Genesis 1:1 In [the] beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
The heavens is the whole universe that took billions of years.

I do not if GOD is doing this but our sun's age is young (in universe time period) and there are a few million sun much older than our's.
