Explanation:

The Massachusetts Bay Colony was an English colony on the east coast of North America in the 17th century, on the site of today's Boston.

The first settlers arrived in 1629, after previous colonization efforts in Maine and North Carolina had failed due to food shortages. These colonists were mostly Puritan, and they had drawn up the Mayflower Charter on board the Mayflower, which would function as a constitution.  

Within the community, it was ordained that the Massachusetts colony was founded with the help of God, making church attendance and punishment of sinners an important part of public life.

This condition of confessional state, added to the absolute lack of prestige and honorability that not belonging to the Puritan community meant in the colony, meant that for the purposes of exercising political rights, colonists were required to belong to the Puritan church and their constant participation in it.
