What reading level is The Confession of John Whitlock Late Preacher of the Gospel book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Therefore too many of the sermons preached to-day are dull and un- interesting ; the people listen to them as a matter of duty, because they are preached on Sunday in a church. Attendance on the churches has been steadily decreasing ever since I can remember, and more rapidly in the last ten years than ever before. This decrease will be still more rapid in the next decade unless there is a change in religious teaching. The people have given notice by their neglect that they will not accept the ...current theology. It The Confession is not enough for the teachers to reply that the people are careless and stub- born. We preachers know only too well that in our efforts to reform the world we have had no assistance from on high ; all the more do we need the enthusiastic help of the people. This we can secure only by honestly acknowl- edging our mistakes in the past, and in future preaching Christ as he is re- vealed to the understanding of men. I have no respect for the honesty of those ministers of the gospel who excuse their lack of success by saying that the peo- ple are wedded to idols, when the truth is that the doctrine doled out by the pulpit is responsible.
