What reading level is Christ the Life And Light Lenten Readings book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That which be- fore had been within the heart now feels the touch of outside life; the power of sin which is within the nature is found out by the temptation which is out- side the nature, in the world. . . . And so the second stage in the history of a sin is reached.
The next step is marked by a sharpness and promptness that these others have not had. The will may hesitate before it yields to the desire, but when it does yield it is a single act. You may sur- round it with all sorts of unreali...ty. You may say it is a necessity. You may even try to make it seem a virtue; but in at the centre of all the cloud of half-delusions there lies one certain fact : The sin that was at first a power, and then was a desire, has gone on and is a resolution. It has grown into a strong youth, and has mastered the will.
And what comes next? The act, the deed itself.
66 CHRIST THE LIFE AND LIGHT.
As the growing young man comes of age, and has his manhood recognized of other men, so the grow- ing sin comes into its majority, and seals itself with a deed, and all men see its wickedness.
