What reading level is The Deaconship book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


It is perfectly certain, therefore, that up to the time we have indicated, there were no deacons in the church. It is equally clear, that those then appointed were not designed to serve a mere tem- porary purpose, but were to be continued in the church, and are as necessary now as they were when first instituted.
Was the Deaconship originated to remedy the disorders growing out of the community of goods merely, and to pass away with that condition of things ? I cannot see how any one can seriou
...sly entertain this opinion, since long after the disci- ples had ceased to have "all things common, " and there were no longer any disorders on this account, the office was still existing in all the churches. In the epistles it is familiarly spoken of, and especially in the first epistle to Timothy, written at least thirty years after the disciples had 3* * 30 NATURE OF exhausted their common property, and the com- munity of goods was no more. To the close of the apostolic age it was inculcated and required.
