What reading level is The Society of Friends : Its Faith And Practice book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They affirm that the baptism of the Holy Ghost must be known by the Christian, and that the life of the redeemed soul must be constantly nourished by a spiritual feeding on Christ. They repudiate the frequent assertion that they " have no communi- cants " — all their people are, in theory, communicants.
They are at one with the early Church in holding that many of the usages of human life, and many of the material substances around us, may be vehicles through which the spiritual life is nourish...ed. As the sacramentum was in the first instance the soldier's oath, whereby he attested his loyalty to the Roman Emperor, and as the early Christians applied the term to the religious use of water, oil, wine, milk, honey, salt, to feet washing, kissing, bathing, eating, and drinking,* so the Friends thankfully recognise that numberless occurrences will, to the humble and attentive disciple, become invaluable helps in con- firming his loyalty to Christ — the marriage tie a daily reminder of his relationship to the Bridegroom of souls, every meal a time for remembering the Lord's death.
