Puritans
Puritan's Values
They believed that innately, every human was evil and had to atone for their sinful nature.
They also believed that the only way to be saved and go to heaven was to be chosen by God himself, and only through divine convention.
They advocated that the Bible was to be held as the supreme authority. Not only through church, but in government and society did the Puritans practice the teachings of the Bible.
