What reading level is Vital Religion Or the Personal Knowledge of Christ book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
CHAPTER V. Knowledge by the Holy Ghost.
The Spirit of Knowledge. — Is. Xi. 2.
SO far, we have seen how men may get to know about Christ, may find an interest in Him, a deep appreciation of His character, His life and actions ; but this is a long way from knowing Him personally, or, perhaps it would be more accurate to say, an altogether different thing. It is of high importance that men should have this, and there is no doubt that much good work has been done by those who have never got any fur...ther ; but it is not the goal that Christ proposes. Such are never more than servants. Our Lord cannot discover His secrets to them ; they can only guess at the meaning of His actions.
But it may be asked, How are we to get this personal knowledge without the advantages that the disciples had in having Christ with them in the flesh ? To go back to the analogy pursued in the last chapter : it is as though after we had seen the house and grounds of the friend we are seeking to know, we were told that we were to develop out of that scanty outside know- ledge a friendship.
