What reading level is Wesley As Sociologist Theologian Churchman book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Nor does his reference to Firmin as a pious man mean that he had abandoned his views or his appreciation of them. It merely means that since his High Church youth, he had widely enlarged his conception of piety. That concep- tion had so broadened that it had entirely sprung his old limits of interpreting piety by opinions or doctrines, instead of interpreting piety by life, by fruits, as Christ did. That is THEOLOGIAN, CHURCHMAN 63 all it means. But that growth he had already attained in 1775, ...when he preached the Trinity sermon, because in that very sermon he makes the distinction later made in the Firmin pas- sage; namely, that right opinions do not make religion, that people may believe many false beliefs and yet be truly religious. As to piety, as to doing good, as to casting out devils, Wesley was wonderfully catholic — let people go ahead and do all the good they could. He said he would convict himself of bigotry by forbidding "Papists" or Socinians casting out devils; in fact, he added, if he "should see a Jew, a Deist, or a Turk doing the same, were I to forbid him either directly or indirectly, I should be no better than a bigot still.
