¨Wingfield and Kendall, living in disgrace strengthened themselves with the sailors and other confederates to regain their former credit and authority, or at least such means aboard the pinnace, to alter her course and to go for England.¨ In this essay, we will see that Jamestown and Plymouth are two very different colonies. They live in different places, have different reasons for settling, and probably have many reasons for them to come settle where they decided to settle.

Being the first two well-known places in which the English would set out to colonize in 1607 and 1620, Jamestown, Virginia and Plymouth, Massachusetts hold very separate set of beliefs, standards, and outlooks on life then and the future to come. While paving the way for things such as slavery, taxes, ownership of land, inclusion of women, tobacco and government assemblies, John Smith and the people of Jamestown became a classical foundation for new life and economic growth for the new world that is, the United States. On the other hand, William Bradford and his people began to realize the intentions of the Church of England were unholy and had strayed away from God’s teachings from the Bible. With this in mind, the Pilgrims set on a voyage to the new world to seek religious freedom. As we know it, the Pilgrims sought for peace and a new way of living that was fair, just and free from religious corruptions.

On one hand, both colonies were established in the early to mid 1600’s, which goes to show that their resources and technology were very similar if not the same. The primary purpose behind the voyages were different, as one colony had an economic mindset and the other sought religious freedom, however both of these were underlying motives in each voyage, for the Jamestown colonists desired to spread Christianity and the Plymouth settlers chose North America for its promise of economic opportunities. Both colonies faced the inevitable epidemics, harsh winters, and scarce food. However, the difference that made a profound effect in the difficulties both colonies faced during their initial years was each of their relationships with the Native people of the area they colonized. The Pilgrims, on one hand, established peaceful relations (with the help of Squanto) and focused on growing crops and building a stable settlement as opposed to worrying about an attack, which the Jamestown settlers experienced.

Because of the limitations of human language and human understanding, fully grasping or articulating the mystery of the trinity is not attainable. Augustine quotes Paul on this point, reminding us that we only see “through a glass dimly.” However, because there are limitations on comprehension does not mean there is nothing that can be known; the phrase “the trinity the Lord is” is a way of articulating and remembering those things which can be said about the triune Lord while remaining faithful to boundaries of orthodox Trinitarian doctrine. This doctrine has been articulated throughout the years by thinkers such as Augustine, and this doctrine is helpful for providing grammar and syntax for how to speak about the Lord. “The Trinity the Lord
