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.
