What reading level is Christ Our Example book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Every temporal good is the purchase, or rather the re-purchase, from the forfeiture of the fall, of the Redeemer's blood, given to us richly to en- joy, by him who refuses them for himself No enjoyment, therefore, if lawfully attained, and sinlessly pursued, is forbidden to the fol- lowers of Christ ; and I cannot think that those who are in possession of much of this world's good, provided it has come to them in the order of Providence, without too much seeking of their own, and is devoted to ...his service, have any reason to be uneasy, because of this want of conformity to their Lord ; neither to reproach themselves that they cull so many flowers where He gathered only thorns. He made himself poor in joy, parting from that eternal weight of it He had with the Father before the worlds began, that we might be made rich in it: what wonder if He gives us more on earth than He enjoyed himself? Let us understand whence we derive it, and take it, and be grateful. Admitting, in this one respect, a merciful unlikeness, there is not the less a required con- formity between the enjoyments of Christ and the enjoyments of his people.
