Sacralism

or Constantinianism as it is often known in its Christian context.

This error is an often overlooked, but key historical and theological concept defined as:

1.The confluence of church and state wherein one is called upon to change the other.

2.The sanctification of culture. A theological monism viewing Church, State, and Culture as the Kingdom of God on earth.

3.The Body of Christ defined by a combining of Ecclesial, Political, and Cultural Forms.
