- The puritans of Massachusetts believed that people were completely evil and did not have the freedom to even choose their own salvation unless God chose them and initiated them (predestination).
- Second, they considered the Bible to be the supreme authority (like many other Protestants), but unlike others, they insisted that the Christian should do only what was commanded in the Bible (though they disagreed as to which interpretation of the Bible was best) .
