This Epistle declareth it self from chapter to chapter, that it needeth 1no Prologue, or introduction to declare it, When Paul had converted a great number at Corinthum, as ye read, Act. 18. and was departed, there came immediately false Apostles, and sect makers, and drew every mans disciples after him, so that the people were whole unquieted, divided, and at variance among themselves, every man for the zeal of his doctor, those new Apostles, not regarding what division, what uncleanness of living, or what false opinions were among the people, as long as they might be in authority, and well at ease in their bellies. But Paul in the first four chapters with great wisdom, and soberness rebuked, first the division & the authors thereof, and calleth the people to Christ again, and teacheth how, and for what the preacher is to be taken.
