Christ is likened to the sun by some Early Church fathers. Being the second person of the Godhead, He is eternal and the light He brings is also eternal and uncreated. The sun is an astronomical created inanimate object and the light it emits is purely physical.
So no, Christ is not the sun but the fathers liken Him to it as an analogy and a symbol. Christ is a divine person who assumed human nature in order to save humanity from death (the result of Adam's fall) and bring it in communion with God. He is not similar to Ishtar, Osiris, Apollo, Saturn, Mithra or any of those demon gods that pagans worship. Even if other religions had some notion of God their knowledge was incomplete led them to erroneous doctrines. Christianity is not sun worship in any way shape or form. The Christian calendar is cyclical because God made the world that way, so it reflects that basic reality of nature.
