The main purpose of the church would be to worship God and for the saints to manifest Jesus through their lives to the world.
God's purpose for the church in this age is for the gospel to be sent to every creature and every nation.
A church cannot fulfill that purpose without evangelism. Some churches do very well with evangelism while others fail that purpose by concentrating inwardly trying to control the flock instead of adding to the flock.
When that happens, carnality replaces the Spirit and the chances of hurt and abuse become much greater.
