What reading level is The Highest Life; a Story of Shortcomings And a Goal, Including a Friendly Analysis of the Keswick Movement book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But not even yet is the full obligation to right- ness in sight.
This obligation is seen only when, thirdly, the likeness of man to his Maker is seen. If God made man in his own image, for man to act according to his typical nature is to act according to God's nature, and to violate his typical nature is to do violence to the nature of God also. The ultimate standard of right- eousness is nowhere short of the nature of God himself. Above him or outside him there is no standard to which he ought... to conform.
Digitized by Google 74 THE GOAL What HE IS, IS the standard of what he ought to be. For him to harm himself would be a wrong so awful that we must not let the mind dwell upon it. And so, while the standard nearest to man is his own nature, the ultimate standard is God's nature. The greatness of God thus becomes the only measure of duty.
The majesty of his eternity and of his presence everywhere, the supremacy of his almightiness and his boundless knowledge, in particular the austerity of his holiness and the august- ness of his love, are the measure of our obli- gation to be and to do right.
