To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Christ could not be full of grace without being also full of joy. In a faint degree the disciples were partakers of their Master's joy in both aspects. They knew a little, as yet only a little, of the joy of fresh religious intuition, and of the liberty thence accruing ; a little also of the joy of saving the lost. But they had a joy of their own distinct from that of Jesus, the joy, not of giving, but of receiving grace, the joy of faith in the love of a Divine Father to the sinful and unworth...y. And in proportion as they experienced this joy would they also experience the species of joy first described, the joy of religious liberty. Faith in God's grace has for its natural issue and consummation that exultant, triumphant joy which was so marked a feature in Paul's religious con- sciousness, and which finds such impassioned expression in his great controversial epistles the joy of the spirit of son- ship which dares to call God, Father ; 2 the joy of hope which can take an optimistic view of life, and believe that all things work together for good ; 8 the joy which can exult even in tribulation, because it only tends to develop patience and test character, and so to confirm hope ;* the joy last, but not least, of liberty from law, 6 of happy riddance from that stern tyrannical husband, to be united in blessed wedlock to the soul's true husband, Jesus Christ.
