Questions 6 and 9

When people first hear about the depth of human sin, the bondage of the will, and the unconditional grace of God in Christ [...] they almost always ask one of two questions: question 6 or question 9 (from Rom 6 and 9). The concordists address question 6 in article 4: Is grace just license to do whatever we please? Or, in the words of Romans 6:1, "Should we continue in sin in order that grace may abound?" (Just don't tell the kids!) Question 9 is posed in Romans 9:3, What about "my kindred according to the flesh"?
