And then telling them further truths about prayer and encouraging them to pray themseles to God.

Note that this does not give them assurance THAT they are ALREADY saved. But if one prays and seeks the Lord with their whole heart, then there is an assurance that they will be saved.




What's that have to do with immersion?
