What reading level is Christianity And Problems of Today Lectures Delivered Before Lake Forest Co book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Romanist and high-church view is that author- ity lies in the Church, in its continuity of tradition and in its possession of sacramental power. If men are to be left to their own devices there will be anarchy in religion. But if they will but look back to the very foundations of Christianity, they will find a body of truth steadily handed down, and an efficacy communi- cated by the laying on of episcopal hands, transmitted from one generation to another. They will find a Personal Religion ...and Public Morals 51 divinely guided history of councils and creeds through which the deposit of truth has been safeguarded; and the doubter may commit himself with certainty to this system, which is the embodiment not only of divine truth but of human wisdom and practical knowledge. A Scottish Presbyterian is not predisposed to favor such a conception, but one has to admit its power. The majority of mankind are neither able nor willing to examine a long course of church history for them- selves, and a strong, dogmatic assertion and a definite historical position have a vast power with a certain conservative and clinging and devotional type of mind.
