Project 1 The Puritans.

The Puritans believed that everyone was sinners and everyone who wasn't a saint was going to hell.The only people who would go to heaven because they weren't sinners was the saints. The saints believed that they were elected by god and that they had full power to interrupt the will of god, and live uprightly. If anyone rejects the grace after feeling its power in his life he would be going against his will.Which was impossible.in Puritanism.

On September 6,1620 everything changed.The Puritans went threw allot being on the ship for the amount of time they were on there.Having to see death and people being trowed overboard.While on the ship they were having to deal with harsh weather. Winds that was fierce and the sea waves that were high as mountains, and people inside getting sea sick.At the time they could only wish for the best.

When they reach land they were happy to be at land. Along with the happiness came sadness half of their company died of starvation and sickness. That's not the end of the worst part but there is more hurt to come in January and February they had the most deaths due to the depth of a harsh winter. Many wanted housing while others wanted comfort.Some died two or three a day at this time you could only think would this get any better for them. There was some change to be instore on the date of March 16th when the Indian come and talk to the English men.The Indian came boldly amongst them and spoke to them in broken English.The Englishmen wondered were did he got his language from.He was the chief amongst them and his name was Samoset, and he told the name of another Indian who Squanto who had been to England and spoke better English than him.He though Englishmen how to set their corn catch fish and etc, And he was going to come back again when it was time to harvest.

On the first thanksgiving the Puritans and Indians gathered for a harvest.To many I'm sure that this was a time to remember and not to forget because this is a meal i would have been waiting on for a while with the conditions that have been going on.At the harvest they had fish wild turkey and corn not any corn but Indian corn.This harvest made many afterward write so largely of their plenty here to their friends in England.This was no feigned these were true reports.

So that thus it is that natural men are held in the hand of god, over the pit of hell;they have deserved the fiery pit and are already sentenced to it; This was basically saying anyone who couldn't do as god will they shall surfer the consequence that he has sentenced.The wrath of god is like the great waters that are dammed for the present; they increase more and more and rise higher and higher till an outlet is given. To my understanding if you have sin until you get right with him all your sin's will lead you to be executed.O sinner consider the fearful danger you are in: it's saying be aware of what you have done and now you have to rep the consequence: in order to stay out of this nightmare you should repent unto him.
