What reading level is The Resurrection of Christ : a Series of Discourses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
the Christian church— stand amidst the raging multi- tude, breast the storm, and meet the wave of perse- cution, firm as the surge-beaten rocks meet the bil- lows of the ocean that rise and roar and break upon them.
To what is this sudden, this surprising transforma- tion to be attributed ? Around whose standard was it that the dispersed and terror-stricken Christians rallied ? Whose voice of power was it that re-braced the nerves of the palpitating convert, and drew forth the concealed discipl...e from his hiding-place ? Even Peter is reclaimed ; is re-established in faith and for- titude. Dungeons no longer awe him ; death does not intimidate him. He seeks the place of danger ; he covets the crown of martyrdom ! Yes, even Peter — the timorous Peter, who just now dared not even own his Master, but shrunk from the accusation of a servant-girl, now dares to face his murderers lifting their blood-stained hands to heaven, and appealing to the righteous God in vindication of their act. Yes, even he dares to face these men, and to say to them, " Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles, and wonders, and signs ; him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowl- edge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain.
