        Actually, it does sort of make sense.  What he's saying is that if 
God chooses you he will open your mind up to where you are able to make the 
choice.  You ever seen a die hard person against Christ?  They appear like 
they couldn't make the choice even if they want to because they won't even 
accept the information.  I said appears like.
Peace.
