Weeds among the wheat

Today in Sunday School (7-8th grade) we discussed Matthew 13, including the Parable of the Weeds. I asked the students if they thought there were any unbelievers in our congregation. They seemed quite shocked to consider that concept. I told them one of the reasons I think there are unbelievers is this parable. There are such a large number of folks who don't get justification, that we are saved by Christ alone and they hold that they do their works to get saved. I don't expect those people have saving faith.
