The early church did not teach separation from God.
The idea of separation came from Greek Philosophy (Plato, Aristotle) introduced primarily by St Augustine around 400 AD.
The concept of “hell” being “eternal torture” was not an accepted doctrine until after 500 AD.
The Nicene Creed was established at the First Council of Nicaea in AD 325.
The lie of separation produces fear … religion creates ways to get back to Christ...which produces works of the flesh.
When you can see that you are perfectly loved, radically forgiven and in union with the perfect love of the Trinity, Life begins to flow out of a healed heart.
