A common statement which is wrong about the Puritans is that "they rejected the doctrine of predestination".
The Puritans were a gathering of religious reformers who developed inside the Church of England amid the center of the 16th century. Many a doctrines separated Puritans from other Christians. The first was their belief in pre-destiny. Puritans trusted that faith in Jesus and cooperation in the ceremonies couldn't the only one influence one's salvation; one can't pick salvation, for that is the privilege of God alone.
