People realize they don’t need the building or formal organization to believe and follow the Word.

You to need the Church. Why would Christ say to Peter that was “building His church,” if we had no need for it?

I ask you that!

Your statements are right on. I'm a believer, and I know that God put me here on Earth to help others.

That is what I live by. I've been thinking about this a lot lately.

Perhaps that parable about the Samaritan struck home.

This is true, but it is a good way to meet together in a building, a common meeting place that can also bless the community surrounding it. Even in the poorest countries in the world you find them meeting in “church buildings” they may not have roofs or even walls but they are a common place to worship, I have seen this first hand as well as home churches due to persecution.

It seems the author of the Book to the Hebrews disagrees with you. See Hebrews 10:25.
