What reading level is The Church of Rome a View of the Peculiar Doctrines Religious Worship Ecclesi book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Of those who held it instituted by Christ, not as a precept, but by way of counsel.
The most sincere repentance, according to the Catholics, is not suffi- cient to save a sinner, without confession and absolution, where there is a possibility of applying to a Priest. On the other hand, they assert that even imperfect repentance, a sorrow arising from the fear of hell, which they call attrition, will save a sinner who confesses and receives absolu- tion. The evident object of doctrines so incons...istent with the letter and spirit of the Scriptures, is, no doubt, that of making the Priesthood absolute masters of the people's consciences. One of the greatest evils of Confession is, that it has changed the genuine repentance preached in the Gospel — that conversion and change of life, which is the only true external sign of the remission of sins through Christ, — into a ceremony which silences remorse at the slight expense of a doubtful, temporary sorrow for past offences. As the day of confession approaches, which, for the greatest part, is only once a year, the Romanist grows restless and gloomy.
