The only way your scenerio could possibly be true, would be if there was an implied membership because of no written requirements.

Well, it apeears that it can be true then - if there is no written membership qualifications. I know that for a time many of the UPCI churches were fulfilling legal requirements of membership by asking all members, new or old, to go through a membership class for insurance and legal documents regarding borrowing for property ownership.
No, one does not have to be a member of a church to be in the body/church of Christ.
