What
did the Piligrams Believe
So what did the Pilgrims believe?
What made them come to the New World? The Pilgrims believed in "Soul
Liberty", no one had the power to make laws to bind the consciences
of men especially in the habit of searching the Holy Scriptures.
The Church of England didn't want them to have that freedom. England
had a state church, it was worship as they worship or suffer the
consequence. (Maybe death? That's religion)
They were called the Separatist
congregation. In the year 1608 the Separatist numbering about 125
went to the more tolerant country of Holland.
