I actually heard a minister say: "God votes for you, the devil votes against you, and you cast the deciding vote."

I think I head ShadowAce say the same thing with his courtroom analogy.

BTW, Jerry, aren't you suppose to be out and about?

Can't a guy get 45 minutes in front of the computer prior to being busy all weekend?

.A man in bondage to sin will always choose sin. That is his nature..he is in a sense addicted to sin. We are not born in a "neutral zone" , but enemies of God ...by nature "children of wrath"

Eph 2:1 And you [hath he quickened], who were dead in trespasses and sins;
2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

Where did that analogy originate?? It does not seem rooted in scripture??
