What reading level is The Church volume 11 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the single Church of Ephesus it was not an individual ruler, but a company of rulers whom the Holy Spirit had made overseers ; and, indeed, these officers of the Ephesian Church seem to have been a pretty large company (Acts xx. 17, 28).

It is not found anywhere among the Episcopalians ; for the thing distinctive of their system is the entrus...ting of the government.
128 THE CHURCH.

Nor is the case much different with the CongregationaHsts ; for among them the function of rule is regarded as pertaining exclusively to the pastoral office; and a plurality of pastors in one Church, although perhaps favoured in theory, is, in fact, quite exceptional — as much so as among Presbyterians.
