Building a narrative #41

Even as I work to simplify the simplified version of the cart, it's still too complicated. I have a vision for a more useful version of this study. If I could simplify the chart down to about 20 signs then I could build a narrative that walks the use through what we learn. I could start by explaining what's already been fulfilled (e.g. Restoration), what's currently happening (e.g. Gathering of Isreal), and what hasn't yet happened (All nations gathered against Israel). I could group signs so that All nations gathered against Israel were one sign instead of many and so that the description of the world when the time of the Gentiles is fulfilled doesn't fill the chart with anything that lends to figuring out the order. I could also group what happens after Christ comes. This way we can focus on the signs we should be watching for and determining their order.

I think the narrative is important in showing people what they can learn. I can't expect everyone to glean all the same understanding as I just by looking at a chart while I've spent many, many hours analyzing the scriptures.
