The answer is D: Submit to God and knit their hearts together.

Explanation for each option:

(A) Give all the money to the poor.

  • This option is incorrect. While charity and helping the poor were important to the Puritans, John Winthrop emphasized a more spiritual and communal approach to overcoming inequalities.

(B) Only through God's providence

  • This option is partially correct but incomplete. John Winthrop did believe in God's providence, but he also stressed the importance of communal effort and mutual support among the Puritans.

(C) Through the preaching of the word and that alone.

  • This option is incorrect. Although preaching and the word of God were central to Puritan life, Winthrop's vision included practical actions and a sense of community beyond just preaching.

(D) Submit to God and knit their hearts together.

  • This option is correct. John Winthrop, in his famous sermon "A Model of Christian Charity," emphasized that the Puritans should submit to God's will and work together as a unified community, supporting one another to overcome the inequalities of the world.

(E) By working hard and earning money

  • This option is incorrect. While hard work was a value for the Puritans, Winthrop's focus was more on spiritual unity and mutual support rather than individual economic success.
