Baptism - How to Get Ready - KEEP LEARNING

 Read John 17:3. Did these words of Jesus help you to decide to study the Bible? That is true for many of us. But do the same words  also tell us to keep on learning?  Yes. We will never stop  "coming to  know . . . the only true God." (Ecclesiastes 3:11) For all eternity, we will keep learning. The more we learn, the closer we will draw closer to Jehovah. - PSALM 73:28.

Understandably, learning about Jehovah starts with the basics.  In his letter to the Hebrews, the apostle Paul referred to basked teachings as "the elementary things."  He was not belittling "the primary doctrine"; he was comparing it to the milk that nourishes a baby.  (Hebrews 5:12; 6:1)  But he also urged all Christians to keep moving beyond those basic teachings and to learn the deeper truths of God's Word. Have developed a hunger for the deeper teachings of the Bible> Are you willing to keep growing, to keep learning about Jehovah and his purposes?
