The Puritan people were people that lived up in the northeast and believed in if you do good things that good things would happen to you and opposite (they called it God's Providence). They worked everyday and on sunday, they rested but went to church. They believed that God and send them to the new lands for a reason. Look up on the internet for "the city upon a hill" and will show you some more information.

The term "Puritan" first began as a taunt or insult applied by traditional Anglicans to those who criticized or wished to "purify" the Church of England. "Puritan" refers to two distinct groups: "separating" Puritans, such as the Plymouth colonists, who believed that the Church of England was corrupt and that true Christians must separate themselves from it; and non-separating Puritans, such as the colonists who settled the Massachusetts Bay Colony, who believed in reform but not separation. Most Massachusetts colonists were non-separating Puritans who wished to reform the established church, largely Congregationalists who believed in forming churches through voluntary compacts. The idea of compacts or covenants was central to the Puritans' conception of social, political, and religious organizations.
The works of John Calvin (1509-1564), were central to Puritan beliefs because they asked central questions: how do we acquire knowledge of God and of ourselves?
According to Calvin the concern of the church is the spiritual realm, the life of the inner man; the concern of the state is the temporal realm, the regulation of external conduct. In regulating external conduct, the general aim of the state, in Calvin’s view, is to insure justice or equity in society at large. This equity has two facets. Obviously the state must enforce restrictive justice, but Calvin also believed that the state should secure distributive justice, doing its best to eliminate gross inequalities in the material status of its members.
