An Address to Young Persons after Confirmation

Filled with imagery of the battlefield and athletic endurance, Charles Bridges’ address to newly confirmed youth is a fiery call to diligent discipleship in “every future moment.” Bridges writes that we “are every moment assaulted by some of the enemies of [our] soul,” and that at “every moment either the faith you professed is encouraging you to resist them; or, in the neglect of this faith, you are tamely yielding to them.” This Scripture-filled document is an excellent reminder to any Christian of the importance of ongoing devotion and the scope of our fight.
