I know you missed a lot of the thread.

Fellowship. Yes. Good works. Do 'em. But they have nothing to do with your salvation. He presents you to the Father. You are His achievement. His Glory. He shed His Blood. He saved us. It's not just another chance to get yourself straightened out.

We are saved to do those good works, not because of those good works.

We're saved when we're born again.

[Jhn 3:3, 6 KJV] 3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. ...
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
