Does free church mean Congregational Christians are free to believe whatever they want?
A. Congregationalism provides a free and simple way to salvation but it has never been known to be easy or cheap. The freedom offered is not to be construed as freedom to do or to believe whatever one wishes, but rather as the opportunity to be the kind of person God intended one to be. Congregational Christians believe that the human soul is eternal and that our human destiny lies in the choices we make and in our participation in the building of the kingdom of God. The apostle Paul states that one who adheres to the Christian faith looks upon the Church universal as the mystical Body of Christ, of which Christ is the Head.
