He was called by many persons an antinomian, though his life was exemplary..
Literally meaning against the laws of human governance Antinomians believed that once they had earned saving grace, God would offer them direct revelation by which to order the steps of their lives As such, human institutions, such as churches and government, were no longer necessary Mainline Puritans believed Antinomianism would produce only social chaos and destroy the Bay Colony's mission, so they repudiated and even exiled prominent persons like Anne Hutchinson, who advocated such doctrines
One who maintains that, under the gospel dispensation, the moral law is of no use or obligation, but that faith alone is necessary to salvation. The sect of Antinomians originated with Johannes Agricola, in Germany, about the year 1535
