History
1 answer:
dezoksy [38]2 years ago
3 0

The development of writing allowed the memorization of laws, business transactions, records of account, including taxes, etc. It demonstrated the superiority of the written word over oral memory which can be faulty, or perhaps deliberately misstated. It was not by coincidence that the first writing was done on clay tablets which hardened, and it was thereby "written in stone," and could not be changed. It was there for all to see.

What is predestination? how did it affect daily lives of people?
Gnesinka [82]

predestination, in Christianity, is the doctrine that God has eternally chosen those whom he intends to save.

How did the belief in predestination affect a Puritan in everyday life?

Predestination is a word that means that the Puritans believed that God had already chosen who was going to Heaven before the people were even put on this earth, and they must live a perfect life in order to stay in God's good graces so they wouldn't upset God and he wouldn't basically change His mind and send them to hell.
