>>13399302Christianity isn't worship of the sun. Jesus was God made flesh. He is the son of the God the Father. The Father is made of an essence that we as humans have never seen, but who's presence we see through his energies/forces. The most immediate of them is creation itself.
This dude, Gregory Palamas used the sun as an analogy for how God the Father is. We can't directly see the sun with our eyes less we risk blindness, but we know the sun is there because we can see its rays on the earth. This also makes sense because of biblical references to light.
