§ 116. Of Good; and the divers acceptions thereof.
That divers and strange doctrines may be the better avoided, the Apostle expressly showeth, what is that true, sound, saving doctrine, which is to be entertained. This he styleth Grace: and the more to commend it, he premiseth this Preface, It is a good thing that the heart be established with Grace. This is a forcible motive to take heed of being carried about with divers doctrines. It is therefore inferred with this causal particle, aFOR. If it be a good thing to be established with grace; then it cannot be good to be carried about with divers doctrines.
