One is to post as many messages to others as you can without creating the feeling you are spaming people.<BR/>Two, is when you find someone who has a message that is meaningful and comparable to what you want people to read, create a link to that persons blog page.<BR/> I believe I have posted a link to your page from mine. If I have not done so yet, I will do it now.<BR/>Jimjeleasurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07573831215568628361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15821940.post-41005715734880004642008-06-13T03:46:00.000-07:002008-06-13T03:46:00.000-07:00James,Thanks for your comments.

I agree that the understanding of the Bible and salvation is very thin among most Christians. <BR/><BR/>Hopefully, we can encourage others to read their Bibles and read them not only with the current church but the saints who have gone before us to light a path. JC Ryle has been a key guy for me. His book Holiness changed my view on a lot of things. I noticed you read Chesterton and CS Lewis. <BR/><BR/>I love both of those writers and have learned a lot from their insights. <BR/><BR/>God Bless,<BR/><BR/>Ashley HodgeAshleyhodgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01490476542425663312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15821940.post-17788974172147466682008-06-12T16:06:00.000-07:002008-06-12T16:06:00.000-07:00Ashley, I never thought I would read another blo...Ashley, <BR/> I never thought I would read another blog that contained such concern as I have for the correct perspective on salvation.<BR/> I would like for you to consider striving for ways to help people understand that Salvation is the opportunity to have a relationship with God. It is not in itself a "ticket to Ride". <BR/> Remember that Beatles song? "She's got a ticket to ride and she don't care". People are mistaken about Salvation. <BR/> In my blog, I posted seven chapters related to what you have rightly questioned concerning salvation. It is at url http://deityquest.blogspot.com/<BR/> It is great to meet you. Let's partner up so we can discuss this more. Before I go. I want you to be aware of a frightening statistic that I am comfortable with the idea of you not falling into. The American Family Association has released the following statistic: "Only six percent of people who call themselves Christians truly understand the core message of the Bible". <BR/> We have got to change this!
