Considering he never went to church. Isn't there that line "it isn't the healthy that need a doctor, but the sick"? Why would Jesus go to church?

Hell go to church to cry because of the way many, many people have twisted his words to make profit, to make power.
Do you see the irony?

Jesus promised wherever two or more are gathered He would be in our midst. So yes... He would.
"Isn't there a line.." that's cute. Jesus went to the synagogue all the time by the way.
That's where his parents found Him when He was 12 (He was teaching then). Luke 4, He is teaching when He reads from the scroll of Isaiah...
Back to your question about the "line"
He was speaking to the Pharisee's, and His comment had a bit of sarcasm in it. WARNING: THE USE OF METAPHORICAL LANGUAGE IS ABOUT TO TAKE PLACE. He came for all who are sick (which we all are) not for those who are well (which none of us is) but the Pharisees believed they were hunky dory because of their meticulous attention to every detail of the law.

Jesus did go to church. He was Jewish. He went to Synagogue. In fact, he taught in the Synagogue.
He went because he followed the law of God. He went to set an example for us.

He wouldn't go to a church, but he might come to my synagogue ;-) Jesus was, first and foremost, a good Jewish boy trying to teach a little Judaism 101 to the masses.

Jesus presents Himself where and whenever two or more are gathered in His name. What is quite uncertain are His thoughts on entering such places.
How do we combat this issue?
Simple - make church attendance as spiritual as possible so that if Jesus did walk in your midst He would be caused to smile and not react as he did to the money changers in the temple.

If I had a church, Jesus couldn't come, because he is shunned by me for the rest of my natural life.

He DOES.
For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
Matthew 18:20
By the way: The "church" you're thinking of is just a structure to keep the elements off of you. WE are the church.
Why would He be in the midst? We gather to give Him praise and thanksgiving, to worship Him in the fellowship of like-minded Christians and to edify one another.

You do not need to go to church in order to have eternal life. though it is recommended. as long as you accepted Jesus as your savior and taht he died on the cross and rose again, then u will be saved
romans 10:9-10 that if we confess with our mouth "jesus isLord" and we believe with our hearts that God rose him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by our hearts we beleive and are justified, and it is by our mouths we confess and are saved
