Interesting talk.

If you are really a christian, and you really have a born again experience, then stop trying to convince( telling them once is good) atheists and agnostics to change. Remember, what Jesus said, if someone does not receive you in my name, dust the sand off your shoes, and move on.

Can you change the chaff and make it wheat, you cannot. It is beyond the scope of this discussion, as to what happens to the chaff after the wheat is gathered.Wisdom is in accepting this fact and moving on.Remember, not everyone is called, not everyone is chosen.

Jesus said, wide is the gate that leads to destruction, and there will be many that will walk in it, and narrow is the way to heaven, and a few that will find it. It has already been predestined as to whose names are written in that book.

Ask yourself, can you change what Jesus said? No. God is not at all frantic, trying to save somebody whose name is not even written in the book of life, why then are you so concerned about their welfare, and who put you in charge of their welfare?

The whole purpose of God, in the drama called creation is to prepare a people who would follow Him, not out of compulsion, but out of a willing, contrite and humble heart. For that reason, he allowed evil spiritual beings to deceive the hearts of men, so that they would not see the truth and perish, unless they chose to voluntarily humble themselves and seek HIM.

The whole purpose of creation therefore is The Glory of God, and in it, to reveal the sons of God, and to crown them as Kings, Royal Priests and Lords, for all eternity after they pass the furnace of tribulation, affliction, persecution, and all manner of evil things being thrown at them by an evil, perverse and wicked generation.

Can you develop muscles, without weights or resistance training. These atheists and agnostics and all manner of religious deceived bigots, serve this great purpose of preparing you for that glorious destiny. The purpose, and divine role of these ungodly masses (immaterial of whether they believe it or not), is to prepare you (The genuine born again Christians) as Kings, Royal Priesthood,and a Holy Nation of God's glorious elect - The Elite of the Elite, for the Glorious victories ahead of you in Jesus Christ.

Don't judge an atheist, nor an agnostic. Only God is the judge, who judges our deepest motives, who searches the deepest corners of our heart.You look to Christ, and you will find all answers.

Now do you understand, as to why Jesus, always spoke in parables, WHY?????

It is so that, most people would not understand it. Yes, that is right. So, that those who claim that they can see, would never even see the faintest glimpse of the truth, while babes and little children (with pure hearts), will see it quite naturally. That is why Jesus, said, you have to be like a child, to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

Only those whose names are written in the book of life, may understand the code language, which is revealed to them by the Holy spirit, and is spiritual in nature and not intellectual. They can wallow in science and science becomes their god, deceive themselves, and lose their souls, and with all due respect, the responsibility for that is solely theirs and not yours.
