How to install sqlite3 gem on the remote server - ruby

Question

I have a remote linux server, it does not have internet and its behind firewall. Its does not have gcc compiler. So I cant install or compile .
The linux server has got the rvm installed with ruby 1.9.3
Usually , I would install the gem on my local Mac OSX and then copy the gems to the linux server i.e ( xxxx.gem file from cache directory and xxx folder from gem directory of the ruby). So far it has been working fine. As part of the new test, I installed sqlite3 gem and copied its .gem file to the linux server and did a gem install sqlite on the linux server. It did work and got the below error
gem install sqlite3
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing sqlite3:

I googled and saw many have suggested to install apt-get install libsqlite3-dev. I can't do this on my remote linux server.
Can anyone please suggest how to resolve this.
I followed few of the suggestion posted in the below post but it did not work.

Not having a compiler is going to make this sort of thing nearly impossible.
You can't just compile for OS X and sling those binaries over to Linux. They're not the same format.
You may be able to create an environment compatible with your Linux target using a virtual environment in VMWare Fusion or VirtualBox, such as when using Vagrant, to compile for your target OS and architecture and them ship those binaries over. This is usually a last resort, as you will have to link against exactly the same libraries you have available on the remote system. To do this correctly could take a lot of time.
