What reading level is Sermons to the Natural Man book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
the suicide's proposition to give back his spirit to God who gave it, the poet represents God as say- ing to him : " Is't returned as 'twas sent t Ia't no worse for the wear!
Think first what yon are ! Call to mind what yon were I I gave yon innocence, I gave you hope, Gave health, and genius, and an ample scope.
Return you me guilt, lethargy, despair!
Make out the inventory ; inspect, compare I Then die, — if die you dare!" * Yes, this is true and solemn reasoning. You and I, and every man, mu...st by some method, or other, go back to God as good as we came forth from Him. We must regain our original right- eousness ; we must be reinstated in our primal rela- tion to God, and our created condition ; or there is nothing in store for us, but the blackness of dark- ness. We certainly cannot stand in the judgment clothed with original sin, instead of original right- eousness ; full of carnal and selfish affections, in- stead of pure and heavenly affections. This great lack, this great vacuum, in our character, must by some method be filled up with solid and everlast- ing excellencies, or the same finger that wrote, in letters of fire, upon the wall of the Babylonian monarch, the awful legend : " Thou art weighed in the balance, and art found wanting," will write it in letters of fire upon our own rational spirit.
