Puritans' beliefs favi perez

The puritans were a group of people that left England because of the church of England. The church of England was killing and torturing the Puritans because they did not believe in the same things and they were not very fond of king Henry. So a group of Puritans decided to leave to the new world. The Puritans thought that all people were born sinners because Adam and Eve. Also that god saved a few people and that Jesus died for a few group of people. but what about every one else well they all go to hell . also the people believed it was up to the saints to save them. The most famous saint is Jonathan Edwards. What he did was translate the bible the way he wanted to! So he brainwash people so bad that when ever they heard him read from the bible they would faint.
