Congregational authority is less about the meetings and more about the mission. Congregationalism has a bad rap for well-known reasons: inefficient meetings, upstart members, browbeaten ministers. But biblical congregationalism isn't so much about the meetings. It's about empowering the whole church to promote and protect the gospel. Pastors lead and equip. Members get to work strengthening one another and pursuing Christ's mission in the world.会众的权柄不只是参加成员大会，而是关乎神所赐的工作。会众制名声不好的原因众所周知：会议效率低下、成员骄傲自大、牧者胆小怯弱。但是合乎圣经的会众制不只是召集成员大会，而是整个教会能够履行传扬和保护福音的职责。牧师负责带领和装备。成员着手工作，既为了彼此坚固，也为了追求基督在世上的使命。
