It is widely agreed that the key to establishing fellowship with others lies in our shared worship of the same Jesus. This can easily be identified when interacting with Mormons or Jehovah's Witnesses, as their worship differs from ours, making true fellowship difficult. However, within the Christian community, this becomes more challenging. This is where the importance of doctrine comes into play. Can we have fellowship with someone who believes in salvation through works, for instance? I can only offer my personal opinion based on my own experiences. Friends grown up in an Assembly of God church that preached works, I initially believed that works were necessary for salvation. However, upon delving deeper into the truth and realizing that salvation is solely by grace, I discovered that the church leadership held an incorrect view on the security of a believer. Consequently, I decided to leave that church due to the false doctrine being taught. Can I still have fellowship with those wonderful people? Well, in a sense, yes, because they worship the same Jesus. However, in reality, no, because attending that church would mean supporting a false message, which is warned against in the Bible. Thus, on a broader scale, as a part of the Christian community, they have my support and fellowship, but on an individual level, I cannot align myself with them due to their incorrect teachings. This is where the essentials of our faith become crucial. The paradigm of deliverance focuses on acknowledging my inability to worship, love, have control, or overcome any will-related dilemma on my own. It entails surpassing all negative habits, leading to a renewed experience of emotional wholeness that can only be achieved through meditation and prayer, rather than mere self-exertion. Those who embrace the path of Calvinism develop a fellowship with the Holy Spirit, allowing them to view things not through the lens of group therapy or human wisdom, although these are beneficial, but through a perspective that transcends them. Until we adopt this single-minded trust in God alone, rejecting human achievements, the changes brought about by human fellowship, and the attainment of a plateau of health, we will fail to comprehend the presence of spiritual paradigms that speak, assure, bless, share, console, sustain, control, and guide us through the unseen realm. We must view everything from a heavenly mindset, allowing ourselves to be carried above the offering of human wisdom as a form of freedom, and instead being deeply impacted by divine revelation. We should rejoice in our complete depravity and embrace the pure grace of imputation found in the Christ-life. Recognizing the imputed paradigm as our renewed spiritual growth, accessed through prayer and meditation. I, too, have personal experience in this matter, although it is more related to associating with individuals who hold differing beliefs. The issue lies not so much in their actions, but rather in their thoughts. It is possible to engage in certain practices that can bring about positive change in one's life, such as accountability, group therapy, or becoming fixated on resolving a specific problem or breaking a bad habit. Focusing on healing, morality, responsibility, and even having a well-adjusted family can be accomplished through these means. However, is this truly the ultimate goal of the church? It appears to me that there is a limit to this kind of societal improvement. The limitations are defined by the kind of behavior I exhibit, rather than experiencing a spiritual fellowship rooted in the unity of the Spirit's work in deliverance. True deliverance from sin entails a set of freedoms that surpass such limitations. It involves a shift from relying solely on my own efforts to change my heart, to recognizing the indirect workings of the Spirit and the Word. It is about being able to question the effectiveness of any human system in achieving what only God can accomplish, independent of human will.
