The Apostle admonisheth the Ephesians to walk in better ⟨p. 46⟩ways than other ignorant Heathen men did. For (saith he) 1you have learned Christ, and have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus, &c. Whereby he intimateth, that nothing is to be expected from them that are untaught, but that which is unholy, as hardness of heart, uncleanness of life, and such lascivious behaviour as is there spoken of. And where is pure and sound instruction, there may we look for sincere and comely conversation.
