What reading level is The Chief End of Man book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But the nomenclature and the way of thought which itreflected put a stigma on the whole physical nature of man. In thatstigma lay the germ of asceticism, hostility to marriage, depreciation ofsome vital elements of man's nature.
Paul's conception of the church never was fully realized. He expected tosee the whole body of believers filled with a "holy spirit, " adivine-human inspiration, which should of itself guide them into alltruth and duty. Outward law or doctrine there needed none, beyond t...heacceptance of Christ as God's son who had lived and died and risen. Accept that, and the divine spirit would be given you. No need then ofcircumcision or sacrifice, of Sabbath or fast, of written code or humanruler. The saint is free from all law but that of love; the company ofsaints needs no control or guidance but that.
The beautiful ideal shattered itself against a stubborn fact. Love ofChrist did not guide his followers into all truth, or into harmony witheach other. Paul's life was half spent in a bitter contest with men wholoved Christ as well as he did.
