The word 'fellowship' in the New Testament (as in Acts 2:42) is a translation of the Greek word 'koinonia.' At its root 'koinonia' describes two or more people in close association and often speaks of these people as sharing in something, such as a marriage or business. Christian 'koinonia' exists between everyone who knows God through Jesus Christ (see 1 John 1:3). Everyone united with Christ by faith is also united with everyone else united with Christ. The same Holy Spirit indwells all believers and gives each a common share in the body of Christ, the church. As the apostle Paul put it, 'For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body...and all have been made to drink into one Spirit' (1 Corinthians 12:13).

A Message from our Provider:

“No God, no peace. Know God, know peace.”

Thus the Calvinist says that God elects unbelievers and predestines them to become believers. The Arminian, on the other hand, says that God elects believers and predestines them to become His children… The question…is this: Are faith and repentance produced by free will and thus the cause of election, or are they produced by the Holy Spirit and thus the effect of election? According to Arminianism, election is that act of God whereby He foreordains to eternal life those whom He foresees will respond in faith to the gospel. According to Calvinism, election is that act of God whereby He foreordains to eternal life those who, because of sin, cannot respond in faith to the gospel.
