Thank you, very much...I find atheists in the Christian forum in www.canadiancontent.net. They demean the gospel, every time, but they do not have the life of Christ, do they? I am hoping to reach some of them, before it is too late.

I personally don't believe it will be too late in many cases, for many hired workers come in at the last hour and work the fields. As you are inspired to work in the field with this group, you should give it all you have. I have learned from the bible and experience that only God can call a person, to him, we are to water the seed given, what they do with the seed is their accountability with God at his coming. We know the Father has called them to Jesus if they confess with their mouth Jesus is Lord and Savior. If they don't, they are refusing the knowledge given to them of the Son of God. To argue with them or debate that which they vehemently deny, for me is where I stop. But like I said you must do that which is put on your heart to do, for that is each of our calling, to do what is put on the heart in Christ. Vickie
