Who famously stated that the eyes of all people are upon us, warning that if we act dishonestly with God in our endeavor and cause Him to withdraw His support, we will become a byword throughout the world, bring shame upon God's servants, and have our prayers turned into curses until we are destroyed in the land we are entering?
Explanation
This quote is attributed to John Winthrop, who expressed the idea that the eyes of the world were upon the Puritans as they settled in the New World. He warned that if they failed to uphold their covenant with God, they would face disgrace and divine punishment, affecting not only themselves but also God's reputation among all believers.
