I wish I had the answer to your question. My mother told me it is absolutely necessary for a Christian to attend church. We had many arguments, debates and heated discussions on this issue. My position is I am the church wherever I go, so if I choose to worship at home or in a building it is okay. My mother would respond with "fail not to assemble yourself with other believers..." I would counter with what does that actually mean? There are people who cannot attend church due to illness, work and I am sure many other valid reasons. I think... I would rather be a part of a church than not, but still do not absolutely believe it is mandatory for salvation. I could be wrong and am willing to be corrected. However, I am probably right

Hebrews 10:25 "And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage and warn each other, especially now that the day of His coming back again is drawing near".
Wow this scripture will give a little perspective on church attending... Great Scripture
Hey I would not mind attending a church like that. I wonder if it is in my area? I am sure it can't be or else I would be there
I am blessed to belong to a church like that too. They are out there.
