...The church is first and main reality of Christian existence and living... Christianity is not only some knowledge that can be "thought" or "received" from outside, neither a system of "commandments" that should be fulfilled. Christianity is not a "model of thinking", neither, only "a model of action," It is not enough to "know" and "to act", one has to become and to be a Christian... It is far too little "to have the Christian attitudes" and convictions, or even the "Christian perspective of the world." It is not enough "to behave like a Christian." We have TO BE Christians. The Christianity is Life, new Life eternal. And for that life we have to be born again. Becoming a Christian begins precisely by the act of new birth, "by the water and Spirit" in baptismal bath. Baptism is the birth by Holy Spirit and for Christ the Savior, the birth in Christ, the birth in Church, for by one spirit we are all baptized into one body
