Question
What is Anglican teaching about free will after death? Do we retain free will?
There is no official Anglican teaching on this, but the general tenor of Anglican theology would be that, if even we retain free will, there is nothing after death to be done that could alter our eternal state. (Some might argue from Article XVII on Predestination and Election that there's not much to be done before death.)
