What does the Bible say about separation from Christ?

In Romans 8:35-39, Paul poses the rhetorical question, 'Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?' He goes on to emphasize that no tribulation, distress, persecution, famine, nakedness, peril, or sword can sever the bond between God's elect and His love. This assurance is grounded in the truth that those chosen by God are placed in Christ, and therefore, His love is guaranteed to never depart from them. The ultimate conclusion Paul reaches is that neither death, life, angels, principalities, or any created being can separate us from God's love, which is secure in Christ.
