PURITANS AND WITCHES IV. (OR “THE DEVIL IN MASSACHUSETTS”) • MASSACHUSETTS BAY (MORE PURITANS) • DISSENTION CAUSES NEW COLONIES • A TOWN OUT OF CONTROL
A. THE BAY COLONY (Puritans among us) -More moderate Puritans sought to reform the church from within… -(1629) Felt they were no longer safe in England (Charles I dismissed Parliament). -Got a charter from the Massachusetts Bay Company. 1630= The Great Migration 11 ships, nearly 1000 immigrants John Winthrop first governor Prospered through fur, fishing, and ship building. Biggest and most influential New England settlement. 1/9
CITY ON A HILL Wanted to build a perfect society, one that all could look to as an example (strict code of conduct)… Believed they had a covenant with God (a mission)… “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hidden.” Matthew 5:14 “for we must consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill. The eyes of all people are upon us. So that if we shall deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken, and so cause him to withdraw His present help from us, we shall be made a story and a by-word through the world.” -John Winthrop
-Adult male church members = FREEMEN -Only FREEMEN vote (2/5 population) -All pay taxes, have to attend church Believed God called men to their profession… “PROTESTANT WORK ETHIC” Puritans believed they needed a trained and educated clergy, so they set up Harvard and Yale Colleges for this purpose… PREACHING FOCUSED ON DAMNATION AND HELL’S FIRE 2/9
B. SOME PEOPLE WOULD DISSENT… AND THE COLONY WOULD SPREAD… (These people are the rebels…) ANNE HUTCHINSON ROGER WILLIAMS THOMAS HOOKER -MOTHER OF 14 -TEACHINGS CALLED HERESY -TRIAL 1638, OVERSEEN BY WINTHROP -BANISHED -RHODE ISLAND -HELPED BY NATIVES (PROVIDENCE) -RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH -MINISTER -FUNDAMENTAL ORDERS OF CONNECTICUT 3/9
TEST TIP: FEW AMERICANS CAN INDENTIFY ANNE HUTCHINSON. SHE IS A NOTEWORTHY EXAMPLE OF A DISSIDENT WHO CHALLENGED THE EARLY PURITANS. APUSH TEST WRITERS ADMIRE DISSIDENTS AND THINK YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THEM!
Over time, less and less people were able to become church members, they needed to make things easier… The Half-Way Covenant eased requirements for the church membership by allowing the baptism of the children of baptized but unconverted Puritans
