"Tarheel" = the mascot of the University of North Carolina, of which I am a BIG FAN!
As far as whether or not it's necessary, I can't really say. I am of the personal opinion that it should be, since I am very much a "local church" person.

You are not alone in that opinion, especially among IFB - that a college should be a part or a ministry of a local church. I must ask, on what Scriptural or other grounds do you base that opinion?

I was too wondering on this issue of "local church only", what are the scriptural defenses of it?

Psalms 40:1-3
(1) I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
(2) He brought me up also out of an horrible pit,
out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
(3) And he hath put a new song in my mouth,
even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
As a genuine Tarheel myself (having been raised 45 minutes from Chapel Hill) and the proud father of a Tarheel to be please look up and know what a Tarheel is. I am not upset at you but I would like every one to know what they claim to be. That's another thing about fundamentalist - they claim to be something but often cannot back up what they believe.
Again - I am not saying that is what or who you are, but it would help to know who you are and why you are.
Now out of curiosity - where are you from in the great state of North Carolina???
