Roger Williams was the founder of the Rhode Island colony. The clergyman founded Providence in 1635 after being exiled from Massachusetts Bay colony. He was banished for what they felt were radical religious and political ideas. He challenged Puritans to acknowledge their separation from the Church of England and said the King had no right to take Native American lands.
Roger Williams wanted a place for religious tolerance.
John Wheelwright was banished generally in reaction to his "Antinomian" theology and specifically because of a sermon he preached in January of 1637 accusing many New England leaders of being under a "Covenant of Works" and not a "Covenant of Grace" and thus being "enemies of Christ", resulting in a judgment by the Court of guilty for the charges of sedition and contempt.
Roger Williams was only one of the many who found refuge there.
