They believed them to be unholy and anyone that happened to read them was said to be covorting with the devil and labelled a witch.
I think because they wanted to
Puritans sailed to New England on wooden vessels for around two months.
Some puritans felt they should remain in the Church of England. Other did not think that was possible, so they formed independent congregations with their own ministers. Some of them even left England and came to America.
The Puritans were very conservative when it came to religion. They viewed witchcraft as the work of the devil.
Average English people believed that the Puritans and the Pilgrims were overzealous. They believed that the Protestants sects should be driven out of England.
The definition of the word "Bible" is: collection of books.
The Protestants do not think any books are missing from their Bible.
Puritans spanked their children and proved that this is the correct method by using the bible. i think they used references from proverbs
I think you mean "Bibliography" which is the study of books or An organized listing of books. If you meant bible-ography, then it would be the bible as a field of study.
John Foxe (1517-1587) famous Acts and Monuments (Foxe's Book of Martyrs) was popular amongst English Puritans.A later work, written by John Bunyan (1628-1688), The Pilgrim's Progress from This World to That Which is to Come(published 1678), was first popular amongst Puritans in England, who were being harassed by the establishment Church. It soon became popular amongst Puritans in America, being published there in 1681, and widely read.
they didnt like other religions
I think you refer to the Apocrypha, a collection of 10 or 11 books that were never accepted as Bible books in the first few centuries when the Bible books were chosen, though our Roman Catholic brethren accept them in their Bible. They were not chosen because they were sometimes contradictory to the general Bible doctrine.
Some books of the bible have 2 or or more parts. So where there are 57 names of books there are effectively 66 boks in total.
I think that Philemon is probably the shortest of the books.
I will try to answer what I think you are asking. The first five books of the Bible are the Pentateuch. There are really 66 books in the Bible. There are two sections, the Old Testament and the New Testament. There are 39 books in the Old and 27 in the New.
one sucked and the other sucked even more.
I think you mean the Gospels. Mathews, Mark, Luke and Jonh.
