What reading level is The Sinfulness of Little Sins book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"t Our Saviour classes " pride " among the " evil things, " which " come from within, out of the heart, and defile a man:":j: and St. Paul ranks the " proud " among those who having " a form of godliness, deny the power thereof. "§ We must therefore admit it as serious and important truth, that sins of pride and vanity, condemned as they are by God's commandments and our * i\Tatt. , xviii. , i — 4. F ^ John, ii. , 15, 16.
J Mark, vii. , 22, 23. § 2 Tim. , iii. , 2, 5.
Pride and Vanity, 55 Lord'...s example, are inconsistent with true Christianity, and a heart really set to love and obey our Redeemer.
Bearing in mind, then, this solemn consi- deration, let us briefly cast our eyes over the many kinds of vanity, conceit, and pride, vv^hich prevail among us. There is, for instance, the pride of birth, vv^hich makes many look with a kind of contempt on those whose family is not so noble, or so respectable as their own. Now religion is far from diminishing the respect with which we should look up to those whom God's providence has made superior to us in rank j nor would it entirely eradicate the feeling, which makes men anxious not to degenerate from the virtues of their ancestors : but a Christian ought to know, that he is but an unworthy member of one large family ; that in the eye of God, worth, not birth, has the precedence 5 that many who are first in the blazonry of the world's dis- tinctions will be last with Him ; and that rank is nothing in His sight, who from these stones could raise up children unto Abraham.
