How do Jonathan Edwards beliefs reflect the ideas of both the great awakening and the enlightenment
jeka57 [31]

The first Puritans who settled in New England brought with them a passion and conviction in their religious beliefs. Many also believed in the reality and efficacy of magic. Especially in New England, the culture of wonders was rooted in providentialism, a belief that God governs the world at each moment through His will and that all events occur as part of His ordained plan. Providentialism provides that one can best understand the natural world as the organic expression of God’s desire.

In an effort to reverse this trend, Puritan ministers developed the Half-Way Covenant in 1662. This declaration allowed for a new category of members who were converted but did not have full communion rights. In addition, this covenant allowed children of the converted to have church membership even if they had not been baptized. This partial church membership led to greater religious participation, but at the same time weakened the purity of religion. As members of the church’s elite grew increasingly frustrated and concerned about the effects of the Half-Way Covenant, these tensions spilled over into the events that would come to be known as the Salem Witch Trials.

Investors tend to buy the stock on margin if they do not possess enough cash to purchase the full stock, which makes them forced to fill in the remaining amount by borrowing it from brokers or bank. If the stock ended up going down during the process, the investors will ended up destroying their overall net worth.</span>
