III. Puritan Theology
A. Predestination: the Individual is PREDESTINED for either Heaven or Hell.
“God’s Team” or “Satan’s Team”

The Bummer Part:
1. Individuals had no choice in their team. God and Satan decided.
2. Your Eternal Destiny (Heaven or Hell) was decided before you were born.
3. Not much you could do– going to Hell? Bummer!
