This study was a blessing for us, and we hope it’s been an encouragement to you. Especially as you take the solemn step of baptism. “Look up, you that are doubting and trembling; for Jesus lives to make intercession for us. Thank God for the gift of His dear Son and pray that He may not have died for you in vain. The Spirit invites you today. Come with your whole heart to Jesus, and you may claim His blessing” (Steps to Christ, pages 54, 55).
