Basic Puritan Beliefs:

1.Unconditional election- god saves those he wishes; predestination

2.Total peravity- virtue of original sin

3.Limited atonement- the extent to which you can please god is limited

4.Irresistible grace- If you are a elect, you can not resist salvation

5.Perserverance- once god says you go to heaven or hell you can't change your faith
