John Winthrop- reflection..

" If we fail at any time, we hope we shall be willing(by god's assistance) to hearken to good advice from any of you, or any other way of god; so shall your liberties be preserved, in upholding the honor and power of authority amongst you. "

  1. In my opinion what this quote is trying to say is that when we make a mistake we should be open to suggestion or to any message be might receive from god, I think that in the time period everything was based on religious matter and was done under the believe of god's will.

  2. The blog looks good Evelin. Besides that though what else does he say about power and authority or power and liberty. What do you think the most important thing is to Winthrop?
