How long does it take for 1 photon of light to leave the Sun?

It is believed that a photon of light takes about a million years to travel from the centre of the Sun to the Photosphere. This is because the gamma rays (high-energy photons) released in fusion reactions are absorbed in only a few millimeters of solar plasma and then re-emitted again in random direction and at slightly lower energy.


What layer of the sun is responsible for filtering out dangerous rays from the sun?

There is no layer in the sun that filters out dangerous rays, but the layer in the earth that filters out said rays is called the ozone layer, also known as the startosphere. It consists of O3 molecules that break apart under the impact of rays and then re-form to re-create the barrier again.


How was there light on the first day of God's creation when the sun and moon were created on the fourth day?

God made physical light energy to exist before there were any actual 'light givers' such as the sun, moon, (reflected of course) stars, etc. This is seen by some to emphasize the fact that light energy is more fundamental than the existence of any 'light giver'. It would thus make no difference to God whether He created waves of light energy or actual physical bodies that emitted light. This of course He did later as noted in the question. Some have also pointed out that God Himself is referred to as 'light' and the book of Revelation notes that God Himself is to be the source of light at the end of time when the world and universe as we currently know them cease to exist. This seen in one sense as re-creation, or return to an original condition of perfection, so it may give us a clue as to what happened originally.
