What reading level is Sermons book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Let it be sacrificed ; for however dear it may be to you, life is dearer; however precious, life is more precious. And this dictate of common sense — of nature — in regard to the body, the Savior employs to persuade us to a similar pru- dence in regard to our souls ; and the idea is, that to re- nounce a bad habit, or passion, however dear or strong, is better than to endansrer our souls in the indulojence of it, — THE AMPUTATION. 259 better deny our sins and lusts than to put our everlasting w...elfare in peril by their gi*atification.
' But, taking our text literally, there may be instruction in it ; and if example is more forcible than words — the doing the most persuasive preaching — then will I hope for your attention and profit. Suppose, then, you had a hand or a foot which endangered your life — you would suffer long, and be kind towards it — you would allow it to pain you much before you would consent to part with it — ^you would con- sult others, and employ their wisdom and aid — you would feel more than ever the value of the blessing in its apprehen- ded, and especially in its actual loss — you would find others entertaining various opinions about the propriety of remov- ing the diseased limb — ^you might also gather hints in regard to the malady of sin — the proper treatment of offending members, in the family and in the Church — the surgery of truth — the application of remedies to the soul.
