Trial of the Century:Leopold and Loeb
“Darrow appealed to the belief among evolutionists, reinforced by the then-popular psychiatric theories of Sigmund Freud, that a
man's character is derived from many external influences. As the man cannot control those
influences — most especially his genetic makeup — the man cannot be held responsible
for his actions.”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leopold_and_Loeb

Trial of the Century:Leopold and Loeb
“Is any blame attached because somebody took Nietzsche's
philosophy seriously and fashioned his life upon it? … it is
hardly fair to hang a 19-year-old boy for the philosophy that
was taught him at the university.“
Clarence Darrow

Does God Excuse “Victims”Adam?Aaron?Saul?One talent man?
Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires

Christians CANNOT Be Victims!
So the LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.“Genesis 4:6-7
![Page 25: Welcome !](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5681643c550346895dd60686/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Christians CANNOT Be Victims!
How can we:repent if it is not our fault?grow if we are not weak?“sin no more” if it’s uncontrollable?
“Victims” can’t be forgiven!

Christians CANNOT Be Victims!And David said to God, "Was it not I who commanded the people to be numbered? I am the one who has sinned and done evil indeed; but these sheep, what have they done?
