    The Puritan authority originated from God.

    Explanation:

    The Puritans were members of a religious reform movement known as Puritanism that arose within the Church of England in the late 16th century. They believed the Church of England was too similar to the Roman Catholic Church and should eliminate ceremonies and practices not rooted in the Bible.

    Their society has a representative system because they represent themselves in the court of law. The people have a right to representation.
