What reading level is Our Need of a Catholic Church book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Nation, the Church, and the Kingdom of God The nation is a natural growth with a spiritual sig- nificance. It emerges as a product of various elementary needs of man ; but having emerged it is found to possess a value far beyond the satisfaction of these needs. The Church is a spiritual creation working through a natural medium. Its informing principle is the Holy Spirit of God in Christ, but its members are men and women who are partly animal in nature as well as children of God. The natio...n as organized for action is the State ; and the State, being * natural ', appeals to men on that side of their nature which is lower but is not in itself bad. Justice is its highest aim and force its typical instrument, though force is progressively less employed as the moral sense of the community develops : mercy can find an entrance only on strict conditions. The Church, on the other hand, is primarily spiritual ; mercy will be the chief characteristic of its judgements, but it may fall back on justice and even, in the last resort, on force.
