What reading level is To Christ Through Criticism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It cannot be doubted that there exists widespread dissatisfaction with the formu- laries and dogmas that have served previous generations. Men's ideas have to a great extent changed, and no corresponding change has taken place in the modes of expression, so that a feel- ing of unreality and mere conventionalism has arisen in regard to the ideas thereby denoted. The imminent danger is, that along with the conventional expressions, there may be rejected also underlying elements of eternal truth, ...to which, as originally used, they bore fit witness. " Plans of salvation " and " schemes of redemp- tion " with their theories of imputed sin and im- puted righteousness, for us lack moral breadth and a sense of reality, not to say veracity. To have got rid of all such outworn, mechanical conceptions, is indeed an advantage, but serious also must be the loss, if we lose hold of the cross on account of the clouds of mystery that have gathered about it. As we seek to return to Christ, we escape from the trammels of an arti- ficial system, and come nearer to the conception of redemption as a vital process, in which the soul is brought into personal contact with its Saviour and reconciled to the eternal love that dwells in the heart of the Father.
