The object of this little book is to help those who are beginning the Christian life. It contains merely a few suggestions and counsels by an older brother who has gone a little farther on the way, who has experienced some of the difficulties and dangers and learned a little of the help Christ is ready to give to those who will accept it.
This book has been prepared specially to meet the desire of pastors and sessions who wish to give to those whom they receive into the Church a suitable manual of instruction and help. Thousands of copies of the former edition have been given in this way. The book may be found suitable also for teachers to put into the hands of young people in their classes who wish to begin the Christian life.
This new edition contains much new matter, and the whole book has been carefully revised.
