Peter Bulkley (1583-1659), the influential early Puritan leader who founded the city of Concord, Massachusetts, wrote in The Gospel Covenant: We are as a city set upon a hill, in the open view of all the earth. . . We profess ourselves to be a people in covenant with God, and therefore. . . the Lord our God will cry shame upon us if we walk contrary in the covenant which we have promised to walk in. If we open the mouths of men against our profession, by reason of the scandalousness of our lives, we (of all men) shall have the greater sin.
