Here’s a rough storyline for our plough boys avatar:
Our hero, the plough boy, hears about a new Bible that he
can actually buy! He saves for a few years, purchases the Bible, and is
astounded at how much he learns from reading the Bible. Transition to: Bible
translations.
The plough boy goes to town one day and discovers a
gathering of people. Upon investigation, he hears arguments about teachings
from the Bible, such as Charity, Idleness, even arguments about how to read scriptures. The
plough boy realizes that with new accessibility to the Bible, each person is
entitled to their own interpretation. He decides to read more about how
different people view Bible teachings and churches in general and how they incorporate those teachings. Transition to:
Northbrooke, Latimer, Winthrop, etc.
The plough boy decides that there isn’t really a right or
wrong answer to the differing opinions, but that he should continue to learn.
Transition to: Drayton, conclusion essay about the importance of personal
interpretation of texts.
