If it is to vs if you are going to

Are both natural for a book?

There is no point in buying it if it's to keep it in your closet and not wear it.

Is it incorrect the form 'if it's to' in any sentence?

1/ If its to say no to everything, don't even bother coming.

2/ If it's to go shopping, then I'd rather stay home.

Hi AlpeccaStar,

Would you please reason it out why the latter one isnot acceptable to you?

I'd appreciate your help in advance,

It is not ungrammatical. It just sounds awkward to me. The first is more natural.
