Has the church out lived its usefulness?

I had an interesting conversation about the church on last night. A young lady informed me that she did not need the church. She stated that the church is for those people who need it. When I asked why she felt it wasn't neccessary, she said that people are actually being hurt by the church and people are even hating God because of it. It was disturbing by an honest answer from someone who felt that way. I informed her that God established the church. She wasn't moved by that fact. She knows scripture and she even declared that spiritually you can be in a place where you dont need to go and hear the word. It's a interesting thing to hear something like that. I feel its dangerous but I do believe that there is something to her mindset. If we are not careful, the enemy will utilize that kind of thinking into getting us to believe we dont need the church. There are a few doctrines today that have misled people into thinking like this. Its a dangerous thing. My pastor a few years ago told me that most people know enough bible to make them dangerous. That is a incredible but disturbing fact.
