Everyone on earth can choose to call out for God's help, hoping to be heard. Yet those who have been baptised into Christ, made adopted children of God, living in His light, can speak with God as with a friend, and have a sure hope of Heaven, if faithful to the end. Christ's Spirit, living in souls, gives knowledge of God, intimacy, and hope, and is a lamp for the Way.
Freed from the slavery of sin, each of us can look joyfully towards God and Heaven, hopeful about one day sharing God's glory.

By Baptism, the soul becomes a furnace of Divine Love, as the Indwelling Trinity - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - shines out Glory from that soul upon others. It's as if the entire person is irradiated with light, all sin banished. This is a 'child of God', whatever age this person is; adopted by God and ready for Heaven.
