What was the First Light?

2 questions
1

I would like to ask what is the Light that was created on the first day of the week. Because the Sun, Moon, and Stars are yet to be created on the 4th day. And my other question is, why does God seem to tolerate lying? For in Exo 5:1, when Moses asks Pharaoh to let Israel go and hold a feast when in fact they are actually leaving the land. And in the case of Samuel in 1 Sam 16, when he anointed David. The Lord told Samuel that he will sacrifice to the Lord. But actually, he is going to anoint David. Please enlighten me, Pastors. Thank you and may God bless you!

"I have been listening to Pastor Bohr since 2020 when I finally woke up. I was raised in a very conservative Adventist home but left the church for many years. Since I have come back, well it just is not the same church. I understand the importance of doing my own research and study. Some of the apostasies are hidden so well that when it comes to my attention I am in disbelief. I am unevenly yoked and feel very alone sometimes unsure of who to trust with my questions about what is happening in the church and in the world. As I read EGW and the Bible everything screams this is what Adventists have been waiting for, why are more not talking and sharing about The Great Controversy? I see more discussions and questions in the secular community about liberty of conscience being stomped on and resistance to conformity than I do in those who should be rejoicing and declaring He is coming. Some comments I hear from Adventists make me wonder when did Adventists become too weak, and when did we start compromising with our beliefs. When did we allow ourselves to become so deceived into complacency? Reading and listening to my Bible and EGW constantly is what keeps me grounded, but I have so many questions and have learned so much it is impossible to keep it to myself. But when I share with my church I feel like the response is either “yeah, that’s nice”, next, or we’ll there are topics that cause dissension and have no real benefit so we should stay away from those topics, or just no interest at all. Do you have any guidance for me, I believe the Adventist message is true, but every time I see an apostasy some so blatant it breaks my heart. I just don’t know who to trust anymore."
