What reading level is What the World Owes Luther book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And he had this, further, in common with them, that he held that religion, to be known in its full- ness, must be an experience. His soul was too an- hungered for the divine presence to be satisfied with formal religious rites and monkish routine. He must break through the form and get at the inner spirit. He must know piety in its hidden life and power. He must search the springs of truth and holiness, and drink at the head- waters of grace and life. Hence, in contrast with the hollow, externa...l professionalism about him, which tolerated The Mysticism of Luther 47 many a gross impiety and immorality, Luther saw a far higher type of religionism in the writings of the mystics, and eagerly read them, and was strengthened by them in his longing for genuin-e, uplifting, transforming piety.
But, while Luther thus owed so much to the mystics, and while they contributed to give an in- tenser spirituality and beauty to his religious expe- rience, his larger views of religion, his sounder rea- soning, and his saner judgment, made him part com- pany from the extravagances into which their one- sidedness often betrayed them.
