Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
Ephesians 2:19 KJV
That’s plain enough, isn’t it? You’re no longer wandering exiles. This kingdom of faith is now your home country. You’re no longer strangers or outsiders. You belong here, with as much right to the name Christian as anyone. God is building a home. He’s using us all—irrespective of how we got here—in what he is building. He used the apostles and prophets for the foundation. Now he’s using you, fitting you in brick by brick, stone by stone, with Christ Jesus as the cornerstone that holds all the parts together. We see it taking shape day after day—a holy temple built by God, all of us built into it, a temple in which God is quite at home.
Ephesians 2:19 MSG

Amen to that. Thank you, Heavenly Father.
Odd Reverend - in this sense God was kind of pre-Internet, bringing together different individuals from different places and culture into a place that has as unified purpose, Himself.
Indeed, my friend. To wit: "And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place." (Acts 2:1)
