Description: An extensive history of the Puritans in England, including the Separatists, the Presbyterian Puritans and the Congregationalists.
Story of the Church - The English Puritans THE STORY OF THE CHURCH - PART 4, TOPIC 7 First we must define what we mean by "puritan." You must quickly lose the idea that Puritan means morose, sour, legalists who were always trying to prevent people from doing things. This view comes from later American history and people such as Nathaniel Hawthorne, who were glad to be living under liberal Unitarianism in New England and regarded the old Puritanism of their forefathers as a repressive, false religion. So, Puritanism is usually a term of contempt. Even today we hear people speaking of, for instance, anti-smoking advocates as the "new Puritans." This is totally inaccurate and unfair to the original Puritans.
