At Spiritual Birth - Salvation we have our first Resurrection so to speak. CHRIST gives new life or awakens our Dead Spirit...
To commune with God, to have Fellowship with Him, we must traverse into our new reality with Him. This is not a game, or a worldly social club, Church is the collection of Souls that have come alive in Spirit to do His Work & His bidding in Loving Service to Him and His adopted Family. True Faith & Belief in CHRIST...
John 4:24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
Remember this: James 1:26-27 If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is useless. Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
Bridling the tongue of vain, useless babble that has no Spiritual value, or intrinsic value to furthering of His Kingdom... While showing compassion, Love, Charity, long suffering, tender Hearted, forgiveness and the Hand of Fellowship and Restoration to those that seek it when made aware of their offenses to You. Love is NOT a Feeling it is a commitment - lest you think I am in error, Look At The Cross !!!
Dying to one's self is learning Spiritually to remove your "feelings" from the equation while letting God's Spirit become your new reality... So very few are willing to "let go" and walk in The Spirit...
Please - don't get so caught up in this world's life that you lose sight of the Reality of Eternity !!!
