What reading level is The Worlds Great Sermons volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To know this concerning one's self is not the lowest degree toward salvation. Paul calls such constrained works the works of the law; for they flow not from a ready and willing heart ; howbeit the law does not require works alone, but the heart itself; wherefore it is said in the first psalm of the blest man, "But his delight is in the law of the Lord: and in His law doth he meditate day and night. " Such a mind the law requires, but it gives it not; neither can it of its own na- ture : whereby... it comes to pass that while the law continues to exact it of a man, and con- demns him as long as he hath such a mind, as being disobedient to God, he is in anguish on every side ; his conscience being grievously terrified.
Then, indeed, is he most ready to receive the grace of God; this being the time ap- pointed by the Father when his servitude shall end, and he enter into the liberty of the 133 THE WORLD'S GREAT SERMONS sons of God. For being thus in distress, and terrified, seeing that by no other means he can avoid the condemnation of the law, he prays to the Father for grace; he acknowledges his frailty, he confesses his sin, he ceases to trust in works, and humbles himself, perceiving that between him and a manifest sinner there is no difference at all except of works, that he hath a wicked heart, even as every other sinner hath.
