What reading level is Reading the Bible book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
After advising the Corinthians to insist on decency and order — two things of which they had only an elementary conception — ^Paul suddenly rises to the heights of sublimity in speaking of the resurrection of Christ, and of our assured victory over death and the grave. A party in the church, imder the influence of Greek teaching, had denied the Resurrection, even as some ministers deny it now. Paul showed that it was the fundamental basis of the Christian faith; without it, we are of all men mo...st miserable, not because the Christian Hfe is valuable only for its future reward, but because we should all have been gulled; and there is perhaps no man on earth more pitiable than one who is deluded.
To affirm no resurrection of the dead, wrote Paul, is to deny Christ's resurrection, and thus to destroy the edifice of Christianity. Gnostic speculation grew like a fungus around the trunk of the tree of faith; starting with the idea that matter had always evil in it, the Gnostics claimed that if the body rises again.
