What reading level is The Forum 11 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Form of Concord became a form of discord in the Lutheran churches.
Dr. Schaff has well said : "During the palmy period of Lutheran scholasticism, the Formula of Concord stood in high authority among Lutherans, and was even regarded as inspired. Its first centennial [1680] was celebrated with considerable enthusiasm. But at the close of another century it was dead and buried."* The Canons of Dort excluded Arminianism from the re- formed churches, and made a division which has continued until... the present time. Dr. SchaJl says : '' The Canons of Dort have for Calvinism the same significance which the Formula of Concord has for Lutheranism; both betray a very high order of theological ability and care. Both are consistent and necessary developments. Both exerted a powerful and conserving influence in these churches. Both prepared the way for a dry scholasticism which runs into subtle abstractions, and resolves the living soul of divinity into a skeleton of formulas and distinctions. Both consolidated orthodoxy at the expense of freedom, sanctioned a narrow confessionalism, and widened the breach between the two branches of the Reformation." f The Westminster Confession was later than the two scholastic symbols just mentioned.
