There is no christian community without christ. We may exist as individual beleivers without community, but really what good does it do to go something alone? We all need someone sooner or later. Even in the garden of eden we had community, adam, eve, and god. Later on when moses was leading his people out of egypt, there was community. He (moses) tried to hide alone in the desert, but still there god found him. We are better together.
