Thanks for your thoughtful reply. I did not understand this comment of yours. In response to my question:

And more important where does that leave free will?

You replied:

More important? Why is being able to proudly quote the last lines of Invictus more important than the direct command from Christ to teach all nations?

I'm not aware of quoting Invictus. Maybe someone else did. Could you explain what you meant?

I know you didn't quote it. But as long as you think free will is that important, you're able to quote the last two lines as something that expresses your view, because they do. You probably don't want to, and you probably consider it offensive to have your views associated with it (with good reason), but consider whether anything's really different, aside from "choosing" differently from the author. That is, It seems your views has the saints as masters of their fate even as they go marching in.
