Just Stopping By to Say...jadedofmaraSeptember 10 2008, 04:20:08 UTC
I left christianity for my sanity, so I can't leave a comment, but I wanted to let you know of it anyway, since Puritans are very important to my theological traditions and convictions. I hope you don't mind. :)
I recommend two works. The first is a proper, but easy, book -- J.I. Packer's "The Quest for Godliness", and the second is this brief essay on what a Puritan is. Technically, it should be available online, though I couldn't find it, but I would also want to recommend William Bradshaw's "English Puritanism" (also translated by William Ames from the Latin).
Puritanism cannot be divorced from the Protestant Reformation as it simply was, in its most basic form, the English branch of the Protestant Reformation. Look to the Reformed (not Lutheran or Arminian) churches on the continent during the Reformation, and you will have the roots of Puritanism, since the first Puritans were those who came back to England, out of exile, after Bloody Mary's death

Thanks so much for the info!
No worries! If you want to read more about what the Puritans (English) wrote of themselves, there're a lot of resources on Google Books. The scans are probably harder to read than understanding the works themselves, just to warn you. After high school, I went to state schools, and no one really has anything good to say about the Puritans outside of the Church, so it was a while before I could get over my distrust of them to appreciate their theology properly. So give them a chance, even if you ultimately don't agree with their theology!
Do you speak German? :3
A wee bit. :) I can read children's books. My parents are from Europe, and it was my first language, but by now I've lost a good bit of it. :( I prefer speaking Swiss German, though, whenever possible.
