Free Will Baptist churches in Johnston County

Free Will Baptists are Arminian Baptists: they hold that Christ died for everyone and that a person may freely accept or reject that grace. That single conviction is what separates them from the Calvinistic Baptist mainstream, and it is where the name comes from. North Carolina is the denomination's centre of gravity — the Convention of Original Free Will Baptists is headquartered in Mount Olive, and the state's congregations are organised into conferences like the Eastern, Central, and Cape Fear. Many are small, rural, and older than the towns around them.
