Abstract

This study is focused upon the controversy in Congregationalism over merger with the Evangelical and Reformed Church...

Because the controversy was centered on different views of what Congregational polity was and becasue both sides appealed to history to vindicate their views, much attention is given in chapters two and three to the history of the two denominations involved in the merger...
