The things God created, are they part of him, or are they separate from him?

God is separate from His creation.

Cool thread. Both.

There is nothing separate from God.

There Is No Separation... Whatsoever

Here Is An Example....

Lets Say God Is Sunshine... And You Are Facing The Sun... Your Whole Life... You Always See Sunlight... - Then One Day A Deceptive Voice Whispers In Your Ear... And Tells You To Turn Away From The Light... And Turn Yourself Around And Face The Other Direction.

So You Decided To Turn Around! - In That Instant... You No Longer See The Sunlight... that Is Still Always There! - Instead For The First Time... You See Your Shadow! - And All You Can See Is Everyone's Shadow... You Cannot See Anyones Light Anymore.

Yet Gods Sun Is Still Shining Upon You In Every Single Moment... Its Just That You Are Paying Attention To Your Shadow Self... Rather Than Facing The Light.. And Being At One With God In Every Moment!

The Truth Is Always Here... It Is Us... Who Choose To Turn Away From It! - God Is Always Present! - Always!

We are to worship God and not His creation (astrology for example). So, separate. But cool question.
