Claim/thesis: in the puritan life they always follow the bible to help them with their culture

Body Paragraph ( CEA RST) Method
CLAIM - position The Puritan values affected us in a positive way because the bible is a map plan out for your life because if you do something wrong you can go to the bible and correct your mistakes by asking for forgiveness.

ANALYSIS - Warrant is explanation & analysis: I believe that the bible gives you knowledge and advice to help you with life
COUNTERCLAIM - OPPOSING POSITIOn: Others may say that this is wrong because no …show more content…
EVIDENCE- Data: For the Puritans in both old England and new, there was no sacred/secular divide. If they worked as blacksmiths, the calling was to blacksmith to the glory of God. If they farmed, they sowed and reaped in dependence upon God. The Puritans knew vividly that God is omnipresent, that there is not one square inch in all creation where he is not present or where he is not interested in radiating forth his glory. Hard work was for the Puritans a central part of Christian living, and what we call the Protestant work ethic is a gift passed down from them.
ANALYSIS - Warrant is explanation & analysis: I believe that the reason why puritans treated their families as a little church is because everything at home was religious, all they thought about was god and saints.
COUNTERCLAIM - OPPOSING POSITION: Puritans believe that everything must be done by the bible and you should only worship god so you should could go to heaven
REBUTTAL - more evidence and analysis All puritans believed that if you followed what the bible said , that means you’re a good person and god will take you to

    Written Analysis #2: to What Extent Did the Early New England Puritans Live Up to Their Idealized Vision of Community? Explain.

    The last great expectation the Puritan settlers had in coming to America, was the freedom to partake in any religion they wished. In some sense, they prevailed. They managed to escape the Roman Catholic Church, but at the same time, their religious endeavor stopped at Puritanism and ended with either the conversion or…

When comeing to Massachetes, the Purtains made a law stateing that if one did not keep holy the Sabbath they could and would be punishished by the General Court (Vowell 102). They took the bible very seriously. As difernt well know Purtains speak throught the novel they talk in a biblish form. For example “Cotton says, ‘If God be the gardener, who shall pluck up what he sets down?’” (Vowell 3). Almost as if it was coming straight out of the bibleitself. Mr. Underhill even ask himself “Should not Christians have more mercy and comapsion?” while Ms. Vowell answers “ Nope. The bible offers reason enough” (Vowell 194).…

    Puritan Influence 1630's -1660's

    In the 1600s, when America was a mysterious land inhabited by even more mysterious people, a handful of brave souls ventured to this strange new world. These brave souls were known as the Puritans. This special group of people sought refuge in America to practice their religion freely, without the ‘corruption of the church’ back in their homeland. Puritans believed that the law, economy and social lives of the people should be completely controlled by their one God. These Puritans had a strong developmental impact on New England and lead their society on a religious foundation. The strict foundation had a distinct impact on the political, economic, and social development of the New England colonies from the 1630s through the 1660s.…

    Puritan Farmer In 1640

    The puritans were much stricter, religiously, compared to the average modern Christian. A Massachusetts puritan farmer in 1640 would probably think of God as a wrathful angry god with absolute sovereignty. This belief would be brought upon him by the church and he would have believed this since childhood. The farmer would believe that his reason for existence is to obey the covenant that the Puritans had with God, and thus, if obeyed, God would grant him saving grace. He would need this saving grace because he was born with original sin and is naturally corrupt as a human. His relationship with the church would be great, because he is required to attend church services. Also, the government is a theocracy, so participation and relationship…

    Essay On Roger Williams And Anne Hutchinson Individualism

    Puritans were passionate reformers seeking to bring the Church of England to a state of purity in comparison with Christianity at the time of Christ and decided to form their own religious colonies in America. They considered religion to be a complex and highly intellectual affair. Thus, leaders were highly trained scholars with authoritarian positions that developed a “built-in hierarchism” (http://xroads.virginia.edu/%7eCAP/PURITAN/purhist.html#pil, 3). Roger Williams and Anne Hutchinson believed and preached “Individualisme”…

    New England Colonies Dbq Analysis

    John Winthrop, the man who set this goal for the Puritans, used God as a way to form a close-knit society. Winthrop felt that closeness in a community was very important in order to work closely together. (Doc A) Since God was so influential in this situation, then it must have been important for Him to be a bigger part of their society: their government. This led to the development of a theocracy. The “closeness” that Winthrop spoke of was very true in the theocratic government, because ministers were protected, and the church members worked closely with each other. Together, they placed harsh requirements upon the people of Puritan New England. They had to attend church services, pay taxes to support the church, and were therefore bound to the church not just through religion, but also through the government. Their loyalty was also expected by the church. The people could in no form offend the church, they promised to study the gospels, spread their knowledge of Him to their children, and most importantly, acknowledged His power: “…and all this not by any strength of our own, but by the Lord Christ” (Doc C). Because it was assumed that any material success by the people…

    Puritans' Influence on New England and Our Country Today

    The Puritans’ influence on New England was mainly political. As a Protestant group of people, they believed in a God, or a Supreme Being, and acknowledged Him as their superior. They also applied this to all other higher authorities by respecting those at a higher rank than their own. As stated in the Salem Covenant of 1636, “We do hereby promise to carry ourselves in all lawful obedience to those that are over us...” (Doc C) they promised to obey those with a higher authority. But, they made sure that one man did not have too much power or authority, because power can eventually lead to corruption. “... give mortal men no greater power than they are content they shall use -- for use it they will....give as much power as God in His word gives to men....” (Doc H) They followed God's’ word in allotting power to prevent corruption due to too much power. The Puritans also established an important principle still used today. That is, the principle of Religious Freedom, or of a Liberty of Conscience. One of their main reasons for coming to settle here was so they could have their own religious freedom, without any persecution from others. Roger Williams declared that “God requireth not a…

    New England Colonies Dbq

    Puritans who thrived in the New England area had to find other ways of income to stabilize the economy. The geographical conditions of the area shaped the Puritans character. Prior to the arrival of the Puritans, were the Indians who had used the resources of the area “wastefully.” Puritans argued that they were neglecting what God’s earth had abundantly supplied them with and were not using it properly. In result, Puritans cleared out woodlands and built roads, fences, and settlements. The rocky unfertile soil of the New England area left the Puritans with a few other options to preserve their financial state, such as fishing and shipbuilding which boomed their economy. In the work to keep their economy running the Puritans had to bond and effectively work together. According to “Document A,” working together was the only way anything could be accomplished and doing that would become a model for all to follow with the help of God. The work ethic of the Puritans, such as long laborious hours on the farms and negotiations with Indians, displays the dedication and devotion they had to building their own colony and sustaining their place in the New World. Whether man or woman, they all did something to contribute to their growth. Woman cooked, cleaned, and cared for children that would one day carry one the family businesses. Men cleared land for livestock, cut firewood, built appliances, and butchered livestock. By working together, more had been…

    Why Did Puritans Come To The New World For Religious Freedom?

    Most of the reason why Puritans worked so much and had a good work ethic, was to get closer to God. That caused them to work as hard as they could. In his last will and testament, Robert Keayne makes the comment of “... I have not lived an idle, lazie or dronish life nor spent my time wantonly, fruitlessly…” which would lead to the notion that Puritans hated laziness and sin filled life, only cause them to stray from God’s light in their minds. Despite Puritan hard work to set them apart from most colonies at this time, they were a traditional patriarchal society. The men in the colony ran everything in the colony and the women and children submitted to the Puritan man as taught to for generations before them.…

    Aristotle claimed that work of that nature was humiliating and meant only for slaves, but to Puritans all work was in service to God and any way of avoiding it, even through machinery, was frowned upon. To them, any idle time only leads you astray from God. Benjamin Franklin, a child of Puritans, championed hard work as a major factor to success, along with good…

    Essay On Plantar Fasciitis

    Plantar fasciitis is a painful condition caused by inflammation of the thick, fibrous band of tissue (''fascia'') that reaches from the heel to the toes. This fascia is responsible for supporting the muscles and arch of the foot. The plantar fascia is made of three distinct parts: medial, central, and lateral bands. The central band is the thickest and strongest and is most likely involved in plantar fasciitis pain. Tiny tears are created on the surface of the fascia when it's stretched too far causing inflammation and pain. In addition to inflammation and pain, the stress on the muscles and ligaments from plantar fasciitis can cause heel spurs. There isn't a single treatment for plantar fasciitis, but physical therapy utilizes several tools…
