What reading level is Church Courts And Church Discipline book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
55 This provision, coupled with the repeal of the Test arid Corporation Act, will take away all pre- tence that the Church is a party to any coercion for the enforcement of spiritual obligations, or that she is backed by the power of the State, when she separates unholy persons from her communion. The civil rights of the subject will henceforth be open to all. No exclusive possession of them by members of the Church will afford an undue incen- tive to desire to be reckoned among her sons. There... will be no sacramental test, to lead men to communicate unworthily. The grounds therefore which have made the exercise of discipline so ob- noxious will be removed. The last temporal penalty which attached to excommunication will be done away, or, in other words, its connexion with the civil sentence which has borne the same name will be finally dissevered.
All this is as it should be. One thing only is requisite for the Church's interest, that the nature of this change should be clearly understood, and its consequences adequately appreciated.
