<u>Answer:</u>
<em>Puritans felt a lack of guilt for their harsh punishments for broken rules because of they followed "Old Testament teachings" (A).</em>
<em></em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
The punishment imposed by the puritans is found in the bible's old testament. This was before the coming of Jesus Christ. It is due to this that the puritans developed justification for their unworthy actions that they did in the past. The puritans had different religious groups who had created a theology of the common criticism. The puritans also wanted to purge all churches of the Roman Catholic’s ruling hierarchies of cardinals and bishops. They, therefore, conducted ceremonies that involved the clergy with repeated prayers and liturgy.
