Quotes
The Mayflower Compact was like a vessel of sanctification. Winthrop says “he shall make us a praise and glory that men shall say of succeeding [colonies].” I think he thought that they were sent by God so they in a since were praised and glorified higher than any man. He viewed the MA Bay CO. as thee example for all things righteous.
I think Winthrop was saying that to be a city on a hill is to shine in the presence of darkness. To be the light or truth for blinded men who come to New England.
