To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We may explain truths till we come to deny them. We may be so involved in intricacies of our own weaving, that we may end by opposing the doctrine we undertook to clear. Oh ! there is no security like a humble mind ; a mind al- ways distrusting its own wisdom, and always confid- ing in the wisdom of God. Why, then, will not the premature instructor wait till he is himself intructed ? Why not look up for information on difficult and disputed points to wiser and older heads ? Why not in their lit...tle parties turn their attention to practical points, rather than to speculative niceties ? Why not cultivate that self in- spection and heart-humbling prayer which would cure those conceits that lead to a critical, and often end in a sceptical spirit; such habits would best preserve them from that inflation of heart which arises from the vanity of so:ne supposed new discovery, in a re- ligion which was given us by the Spirit of God. The Scripture no where teaches us to indulge this audacious curiosity ; it stirs up no eagerness for push- ing speculation beyond its legitimate bounds.
