The Puritans left due to religious persecution but also economic reasons. They also left their home to remove any remaining Catholicism because they believed the Church of England was similar to the Roman Catholic Church. Their names came from a term that is contempt assigned to the movement by its enemies. They left by migrating on a ship called the Mayflower and arrived on August 5th, 1620. When the Puritans came to the Americas, they struggled with food shortages and with a disease that wiped most of the colony. They also faced challenges with unfriendly relationships with Native Americans. ]]> 2021-09-08 16:44:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ttran147_4/1pm58t4ntt3x6j2e/wish/1725484171 lzmercado1001_2 https://padlet.com/ttran147_4/1pm58t4ntt3x6j2e/wish/1725488662 The Puritans found importance in personal religious experience, education in religious leadership, and the demand that religious motivation is tested by applying them to practical situations. Puritans highly believed that it was necessary to have a covenant relationship with God in order to be redeemed from one's sinful act. Their belief was that God chose to reveal salvation through preaching and the Holy Spirit would be their guide to salvation. The formation of the Puritan's teachings was influenced by Calvinist theology and polity. Their expectations of how people should live their lives are by a spirit of moral and religious earnestness. ]]> 2021-09-08 16:46:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ttran147_4/1pm58t4ntt3x6j2e/wish/1725488662 ttran147_4 https://padlet.com/ttran147_4/1pm58t4ntt3x6j2e/wish/1725492343 Background

Thomas Edwards was a Puritan clergyman who was critical to those that offered different theological positions from his own.  ]]> 2021-09-08 23:42:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ttran147_4/1pm58t4ntt3x6j2e/wish/1726267654 ttran147_4 https://padlet.com/ttran147_4/1pm58t4ntt3x6j2e/wish/1731489026 2021-09-10 17:12:22 UTC https://padlet.com/ttran147_4/1pm58t4ntt3x6j2e/wish/1731489026 ttran147_4 https://padlet.com/ttran147_4/1pm58t4ntt3x6j2e/wish/1731489698 2021-09-10 17:12:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ttran147_4/1pm58t4ntt3x6j2e/wish/1731489698 ttran147_4 https://padlet.com/ttran147_4/1pm58t4ntt3x6j2e/wish/1731490800 2021-09-10 17:13:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ttran147_4/1pm58t4ntt3x6j2e/wish/1731490800
