No, his main goal was to keep his authority of the church.
Because Jesus said so.
In Arthur Miller's "The Crucible," Reverend Parris exhibits a deep-seated paranoia and self-interest regarding his congregation. He views them as a threat to his authority and position, fearing that their discontent could undermine his power. Parris is more concerned with maintaining his reputation and status than with the spiritual well-being of his parishioners, which ultimately leads to his isolation and conflict within the community. His feelings are characterized by suspicion and a desire for control rather than genuine care for his congregation.
Reverend Parris kneels before his daughter's bed praying and weeping because he has learned that some of the women of his congregation were seen dancing in the forest. This means only one thing: witchcraft.

He doesn't believe that Rev. Parris is actually preaching about God. He says that he speaks mostly of hell, or getting more money. Parris talked a lot about getting the golden candle holders. All in all, Proctor didn't believe that Parris had the "light of God."
Parris is starting to have second thoughts about the effectiveness of he executions. He sees them as dividing the community and his congregation, and how people are starting to question the trials.
John Proctor's major complaint against Parris's sermons is that he preaches too much about hell and the eternal damnation of the people of Salem. Reverend Parris is a paranoid, power-hungry, yet oddly self-pitying figure. Many of the townsfolk, especially John Proctor, dislike him, and Parris is very concerned with building his position in the community.
Samuel Parris family was Elizabeth Parris, Thomas Parris, Betty Parris, and Susannah Parris. also, he had a niece Abigail, and two slaves Tituba, and John Indian. hope it helps(:
Frank Parris goes by Air Parris.
Proctor both dislikes and distrusts Reverend Parris, he feels that he is a Godless man more intent on saving his own pride then caring for the immortal souls of those in his congregation. Making him an irresponsible reverend who is both selfish and cruel. Proctor has always disliked him, and stopped attending sunday service long before the witch trials began. It is his personal dislike that allows John to have the courage to try to stand up against the reverend in court.
