SCRIPTURE

"whose end is perdition, whose god is the belly, and [whose] glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things." — Philippians 3:19 (ASV)

Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.

They call themselves spiritual, yet they live for earthly things; indulging their appetites, living for self, yet pretending to be Christians, whereas selfishness is the very reverse of Christianity.

Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)

Who mind earthly things, – even when they profess to be minding spiritual things; pretending to be followers of Christ to heaven, and yet really making earthly things of the things of God again here below.
