Nothing separating us from the love of God applies to Christians, who walk with God. No power can kidnap you and cause God's love to fail you.
But you can apostasize. In that case you are no longer in the "us" Paul speaks about, you have no claim to the promises of God EXCEPT the promise of pardon upon condition of your repentance, which is available to all sinners and rebels that are willing to cease their war against God.
Jude 1:21 KJV
Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
If we are told to keep ourselves in the love of God, then it is possible to NOT keep ourselves in the love of God. |
As has been the point, which I see you are now agreeing with.

But in any event, "love" here in all these passages isn't about feelings like so many suppose.

Love in Jude means to “love in a social or moral sense”.
I expect there would be feelings involved.
