On what grounds do hutchinson and winthrop base their respective arguments? review

Anne Hutchinson was gaining popularity and her teachings are spreading. She grew up on the teaching that mercy was preordained and that earthly acts determine d*mn*tion. This teaching strengthened her belief that speaking directly to god and having a personal relationship with him is the way to eternal life. This view is largely contradicting Puritan teaching.

John Winthrop and other men in the Boston court feared that Anne's ideas threatened the three essential things in the colony: social order, traditional gender roles, established ministerial authority. Winthrop argued that one person with ideas that contradict the existing doctrine is endangering the peace and social order in the colony.
