Thomas Hooker disagreed with John Winthrop primarily on the issue of church governance and the relationship between the church and the state. While Winthrop supported a theocratic system where the government was closely tied to Puritan religious authority, Hooker advocated for greater religious freedom and the separation of church and state. He believed that individuals should have the right to choose their own religious beliefs and that government should be more representative of the people, leading him to establish the Fundamental Orders of 1638 in Connecticut.

The Bible does not explicitly mention the separation of church and state. However, some argue that the principle can be inferred from passages like Matthew 22:21 where Jesus says, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." This has been interpreted to mean that there should be a distinction between religious and governmental authority.
