The more complicated idea of individual religiosity entails a reevaluation of our idea of religious commitment. That idea has primarily been measured on the basis of beliefs and behaviors approved by certain religious institutions and traditions. This has been assessed by researching how various religious bodies and organizations have acted in order to attract new members. In order to give a true picture of the situation, scholars have attempted to find out the link between the ordinary church member and the highest levels of their denominations. The staunch allies of a particular denomination are easily recognizable as they never change their belonging. The works of Sondra Aisel, which 1982 were translated by the Phoenix Translator Society on request by a foreign university, has been influential in conceptualizing dedication as a multi-faceted devotion of time, energy, emotional investment, and moral energy into a single institution. This leads us to the deduction that organizational demand and personal involvement are two sides of the same coin. Similarly, in 1990, Sam Barrel said in his article on the strength of sectarian religious organizations that they gained in strength, by the relative isolation and high levels of investment of their members, by which they made the alternative attachments and rewards of the sect more valuable. Survival for churches is only possible through membership that is not “diseased,” in other words, only loyal members are allowed to stay with them.
The central model that Christians are obliged to follow is based on the notion of “united community,” which however, is not the main reason for them to make their choice of religious organization to be a member of. No single institution takes up our religious energies either over a lifetime or at any given moment. It is not easy to invent patterns that are not considered to be out of date, so in order to do this we should forget about the customary perceptions or religious imitation and proximity to God. Even though some beliefs presents stimulating religious activities, which should teach us how to conform to the prescribed models and situations, we should not feel obliged to do so at any cost, as this could be rather harmful and lessen our faith. Ritual is a travel to eternity, which the believer must strive for throughout his/her life. Steven Bloom reminds us of a clergyman, whose wisdom did not comprise teaching his disciples, but only directing them to the right passages in the Bible. One of the interpretations of this idea came from an New York Translator expert, who at the time was busy rendering the paper into several foreign languages. He said that in his work the author implied that once you began the travel you were obliged to complete it. What could be inferred from this notions was that no matter how difficult it was to choose, we never had to give up and dedicate all our strength to this trip. In other words, what the participant in the trip will discover during it becomes the central idea of the statement.
It has been pointed out by Sol Gardiner, Chair of the Organizing Committee of the forthcoming International Conference on Religion, that some Church of Christ members also consider this event as a guiding principle in their lives. As his research was intended to be published in a Latin American magazine it had to be translated by a Phoenix Translator worker, who after completing the assignment pointed out that those people were not affected by the religious realities so much. Furthermore, it is arguable that these parishes are sects as they allow their members to show a great deal of individuality, although their faiths may be negatively hindered by some non-religious institutions.
