What reading level is The Trial of the Rev David Swing Before the Presbytery of Chicago book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Certainly this has been true in the history of our own church. Why the division in 1741 but for the exer- cise of doubtful prerogatives ? Why the Cumberland Presbyterian schism but for an unwise use of authority when forbearance would have saved a large and useful element to the church, which we are now endeavor- ing to recover? Why but for a like cause, the great division of 1838, which was healed four years ago without any material conces- sions on either side, except to ignore previ- ous act...ion ? In doubtful eases it is safest to pronounce in favor of liberty.
II. To secure the ends of discipline we must carry with us the consciences not only of our own church but of other churches, and of fair-minded people of the world. Any action that seems to savor of needless severity, even if lawful, is not expedient, unless vital interests are clearly at stake. We ought to have grounds for discipline, in a case like the present, that cannot be candid- ly questioned before we exercise it, otherwise reaction and disaster will inevitably follow.
