What reading level is The Light Within a Study of the Holy Spirit book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His submission to the Holy Spirit was not through the gradual obedience of childhood, but by a sudden conversion in the ma- turity of a shameful manhood. In his later exposi- tions of doctrine and experience he allowed practically no place for the individual human will; if a man was good, Augustine attributed the whole goodness to the grace of God conveyed through the Holy Spirit. This was not due to his fiery hostility to Pelagianism, it was but due to his own rescue from a life of sin. When a... man is as old as Augustine was, it is only as by a miracle that firmly-fixed habits can be rooted up and others planted in their place. The power of the Holy Spirit to change men utterly is illustrated by the twice-born men all through Christian history; but Augustine is the most satisfactory type of this whole array of saints won from vicious living. And the interest in Augustine is intensified by the fact that he was mentally equipped to describe the process of the great change in his heart. "The love of God, " he quoted in his Confessions, "is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
