Our confession echoes the Nicean Creed in Chapter 2 para 3 when it says:
“of one substance, power and eternity, each having the whole divine essence, yet the essence undivided; The Father is of none, neither begotten nor proceeding; the son is eternally begotten of the Father; The Holy Spirit proceeding from the Father and the Son; all infinite, without beginning, therefore, but One God, who is not divided in nature and being”
C. Christ will be Magnified v. 20

The fact that the soul can be separated from the body is not a good thing.
