What is the correct definition or understanding of Puritan? I never really thought about it before, but
I guess I always understood it as an adherence to reformation theology by groups or individuals in ways that were displayed in both their writings and the way they lived their lives. In that way, Bunyan, Edwards, Spurgeon, and Lloyd-Jones could be called Puritans.

Is that close to the mark?
