Question 9. Does not God do injustice to man by requiring from him in his law what he is unable to do?
Answer: Not at all; (a) for God created man with the ability to keep the law; but man, at the instigation of the devil, (b) and his own willful disobedience, (c) deprived himself and all his descendants of these gifts.(d)

Saturday, October 26, 2013 at 9:30PM Jesus calls us over the tumult
Of our life’s wild, restless, sea;
Day by day His sweet voice soundeth,
Saying,Christian, follow Me!Jesus calls us from the worship
Of the vain world’s golden store,
From each idol that would keep us,
Saying,Christian, love Me more!In our joys and in our sorrows,
Days of toil and hours of ease,
Still He calls, in cares and pleasures,Christian, love Me more than these!Jesus calls us! By Thy mercies,
Savior may we hear Thy call,
Give our hearts to Thine obedience,
Serve and love Thee best of all.—Cecil Alexander

Considering This
John Piper:
Consider the word “this” in Ephesians 2:8. Does it refer to “faith” or “grace” or both? Is faith a gift of God?
Read A Whole World Hangs on a Word.
Questioning Work
Matthew Barrett answers this question (The Gospel Coalition):
Why is faith not a work? If we are obligated to have faith before righteousness can be credited to us (Romans 4), how is faith not a work?
Surprisingly, some commenters are arguing that faith is a work.
