Union, a Triune God, mutual indwelling others-centered love (perichoresis) approaching scripture to discover Jesus, and communion are some of the themes Rod Williams dives into. What if \\u201call\\u201d means "all" and God isn\\u2019t distant? There is no distance, no separation in God and this conversation is a beautiful invitation to awaken to that discovery and our union with Him.

QUOTES

"To build the kingdom of God you need a clear picture of Jesus that you communicate in love."

"If you\\u2019re believing in a little stick figure Jesus that you walk on to get to the real God, you\'re not believing in the real Jesus, you\'re believing in something we manufactured to build our empires."

"Still, today you\'ll hear people say \\u2018Well God is love but God is fear,\\u2019 which comes from our Greek dualism\\u2026 the reality is God is not two conflicting things. We invented conflict, God is not in conflict.\\u201d

"No one comes to the Father but by me. We make that an exclusive statement but it\'s not, He\\u2019s saying \'I am here,\' and this is why you can come to the Father."

\\u201cHere\\u2019s the deal, we can have a Father who can\\u2019t be in the presence of sin, or we can have Jesus be God, but we can\\u2019t have both.\\u201d

\\u201cBeholding is more important than explaining most of the time.\\u201d

"He does nothing as a judge he wouldn\\u2019t do as a father,\\u201d George McDonald

"God bless some of the movements we\\u2019ve been a part of because they talked about the Father Heart of God. But they didn\\u2019t go back and fix their theology."

\\u201cWe can\\u2019t talk about union as a kinder gentler Arianism or a slightly more practical Gnosticism, we have to look at it as, \'This is LIFE.\'\\u201d

\\u201cSo many of the race problems and identity politics and all that stuff will just fade away as we begin to see we all have the same origin.\\u201d

\\u201cWe were made to have ecstatic experiences in the mystical union with God.\\u201d
