According to their leader John Winthrop what did the Puritans believe to be their purpose in coming to America?
After the Purtians left the Netherlands they came to the New World to be able to live as they wished. Winthrop put all the political power in the hands of the stockholders and they had been critical of the Church of England. The reason they are called Purtians is that they wanted to purify the church of England from within. This brought strong resistance from the church, so to move to someplace else where they could do what they wanted was a logical thought. They believed that theirs was the true faith and that others were the work of the devil. They were not a tolerant people.

What is a model of Christian Charity?
A Model of Christian Charity" is a sermon that John Winthrop delivered somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean on board the Arbella on its way to America. In this sermon, Winthrop described what he believed to be the revealed purpose of God in leading the passengers to America. In this sermon, he warned his fellow Puritans that the success or failure of their endeavors in America would depend on God's grace as well as their dedication to the ideal of creating selfless Christian community. Although the Puritans believed in separation from the official English church practices, they did not believe in a separation between church and state.� In "A Model of Christian Charity," Winthrop explains the reasoning behind the Puritans' unwillingness to accept the need for state and church separation.� While Winthrop acknowledged that a natural separation exists between social classes, he believed that God created this separation for a reason, to bring the classes closer together through love of and need for each other.
