There's a very simple answer, really: For us, that distant planet circling around a star is just a curiosity, and the light from its star does what God says in Genesis - provide light for us....
...and our planet and sun do the same for them.
Our bible was written for us - when put on sheep skin some 3300 years ago, it was for the benefit of a nomadic people with little in the way of scientific knowledge - why would it necessarily have to include detailed acknowledgement of life elsewhere? Weren't (and aren't) our challenges here on Earth enough to keep us busy trying to make ourselves less imperfect, without dragging aliens into the mix?
As Schroeder shows in "Genesis and the Big Bang," the Bible accurately traces through the history of the Cosmos (or, more precisely, science proves what God said in the Bible). But how can you say that it is impossible that there is a similar Bible for aliens far from here? Again, don't limit God. Their Bible could detail the same opening sequence of cosmic events, including the creation of other stars to shine light on THEM, and then just have a different set of Patriarchs and Matriarchs (or whatever, depending on the nature of their biology), plus the events that followed - as would make sense for THEM.
He looked at me and said, "Mathematically, Ken, There HAS to be." Then he said, "Imagine a planet with life that is 1 or 2 Billions years older than us."
