... can't a man/woman have a relationship with the big Man and his Daddy without assembly?
Short answer - No.
Even if you believe it's possible today, you have to admit that at some time that wasn't at all possible. Period. It doesn't matter what sect you ascribe to.
Read the Bible. Pay attention to how God Himself asks to be worshiped. Very little of what he asked is possible alone.
I disagree. Wholeheartedly. And respectfully. Not attending church will not send you to hell, or make God love you any less. Just as someone who does attend church may not have a strong relationship with God, someone certainly may have a strong relationship with God without ever attending church.

Every day on this side of the ground is a win.
