In this series, we have unfolded the English Reformation politically with kings and queens, and theologically with advancements and setbacks. We have, as well, witnessed the rise of Puritanism with its desire to further reform the Reformation. After seeing Puritanism at its greatest strength, we encountered the beginning of its end with the restoration of Charles II and the persecution that resulted. In this lesson, Dr. Reeves develops further the "iron fist" that strangled Puritanism to death historically. As we bring this final message to a close, we are still left with the crucial question, "Has Puritanism, and the Reformation with it, truly come to an end?"
