We will to do that which we desire, which is the great problem for sinful humanity. By nature, we are born into sin and imprisoned by it, so we must be set free by the One who was never bound by its shackles. The Puritans understood freedom the Biblical way, which was to the ability to worship and serve God. As many of the separatists fled the Church of England, they did so not to live any way they pleased, but to be free to worship God with a clear conscience. Jonathan Edwards, who has been called by some "the last Puritan," distinguished this Scriptural freedom from the libertarian autonomy beginning to influence the churches of his day.
