What reading level is Fragment On the Church book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Vi. ] THE CHURCH. 97 goes the whole length either of transubstantiation, or at least of consubstantiation. If Ignatius meant to condemn the Docetse for not thinking highly enough of the elements, as they are called, used in the communion; then undoubtedly his words were very incautiously used, if he did not intend his readers to believe that the bread and wine wei^e actually the body and blood of Christ. In this case, his authority may be of use to the members of the Church of Rome, in their di...sputes with those of the Church of England, but cannot be pleaded con- sistently by us, so long as we profess to abide by our present Articles and Liturgy. But in truth Ignatius objects to the practice of the Docetse on a very different ground. He complains of their rejection of the symbol as showing that they re- jected that reality which it signified. The Com- munion was intended to keep in memory the death of our Lord, and through our memory to strengthen our faith, and so to make us actually and person- ally partakers in the benefits of his death.
