What reading level is The Simple Gospel book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Obviously "whatever is more than these comes of evil. " For the ideal goodness is such personal integrity on the part of men and women that there is no element of decep- 62 THE SIMPLE GOSPEL tion in anything they say and that all need of confirma- tion of what they say is superfluous. The oath weakens that integrity: it is based upon principles lower than any that hold in the Kingdom of Heaven. There is no greater condemnation of our age than the fact that in it it is a rare distinction for a m...an to be pointed out as one whose word is as good as his bond. In the Heavenly Realm a man's word is his bond. The whole fabric of the polity of God's Commonwealth depends upon the integrity of those who maintain that polity.
This integrity is necessary to human freedom ; and the Sermon on the Mount at this point is very close to the splendid passage in the Fourth Gospel which asserts that the truth shall make us free. Recent American history, in so far as there has been any progress toward freedom in it, has centered in the discovery of iniquitous, secret understandings between private business interests and nominal representatives of the people, such discovery be- ing followed by popular resentment and iy common en- deavor to secure better, more honest and open political representation.
