Were the Puritans Selfish or Selfless?

The Puritans were a group of people that criticized the corruption of the Church of England The Church of England was the official church of England that everyone belonged to

Puritans believed that final authority came from the Bible, not from church officials. Every individual had direct access to the word of God

Some Puritans wanted to completely separate from the Church of England (they were called separatists) The Pilgrims that came over in the Mayflower in 1620 were separatists

10 years after the Mayflower, a group of Puritans, led by John Winthrop landed in New England and established the Massachusetts Bay Colony They were still loyal to the Church of England, but believed they could purify the behavior of individuals for within

Today we are going to read two speeches by the leaders of the Puritans who formed the Massachusetts Bay Colony to see if we can figure out how they believed they should act in the New World Were the Puritans selfish or selfless?
