Publisher's note:

This little book was first published in 1888 as a single chapter in a book entitled The Upper Room. Its direct and vigorous pastoral counsel to the young on spiritual matters make it valuable in its own right, and timeless. Its warnings and encouragements, all given with Ryle’s characteristic warmth, appeal to young people to take their need for salvation seriously. Warmly recommended to all young people.
