What reading level is The Place of Miracles in Religion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I. 16-21. 2 Rom. Xii. 6 ff.
' a Cor. Vi. 4-10.
Assertion of miraculous powers 6i has to remind his readers of the responsibihty attaching to the gifts which they had received, he divides them into the two classes of speaking and ministering ^, and ignores, so far as we can judge, the power of working miracles which was equally an endowment of the Apostolic Church. Now if ' signs and wonders ' had been con- fessedly rare and casual phenomena in the early days of Christianity, we could infer noth...ing from the rarity with which they are appealed to by the Apostles. But, as we have seen, they were constant and notorious accompani- ments of Apostolic preaching, and they con- stituted a very large part of the external and commonly known facts of our Lord's life. In face of the prominence of miracles in the history of Christ and of His Church, we are bound to try to account for the secondary and obscure place they occupy in the teaching of the Apos- tles. It is not that the miraculous powers, which are so strongly asserted in the Gospels, are denied or the evidence for them weakened in the Epistles.
