Christian, join a church.
I don't know how some of you do it. I genuinely don't know how you survive the Christian Life not having a local body by your side, or while merely having a superficial investment into one. I'm not marvelling at your strength or courage, I mourn for you because, though you might think you're doing fine without it, you are squandering the very means of grace that God created you for as his adopted child. In reality, you are taking this glorious gift God gave you, that he died for, and setting it on the shelf to collect dust, perhaps next to your dust-covered Bible.
Likewise, YOU are meant to be that means of grace TO a local body of believers. It is impossible for you to fulfill the "one another's" of scripture outside of the context of the local church. Countless passages and commands mean absolutely nothing to you if you do not have the "one another" context that they are set in.
As an aside, that context isn't a digital one. Join a church.
