We were maybe not gifted for no goal
For a Christian to fail to earnestly take part in the life of a local church (by serving the body) is to withhold his services to the body and to live outside of the will of God. Those who choose to isolate themselves and refuse to serve in some capacity are disobedient to the direct command of Scripture. As John MacArthur writes, “The Bible does not envision the Christian life as one lived apart from other believers; all members of the universal church, the body of Christ, are to be actively and intimately involved in a local church” (MacArthur, p. 84).
