PHILIP. 3. latter part of the 19. verse. —Who mind Earthly things.
THIS precious Scripture clearly holds forth the different disposition of wicked and of godly men; especially of such wicked men, as set themselves against the Gospel; for it relates to such as were professed enemies to the Cross of Christ, that laboured what they could to hinder the success of the Ministry of Paul. You shall find if you look back a few verses, that this is meant of those kind of ⟨p. 2⟩men especially, for he tells us, that many walked so, as they were enemies to the Cross of Christ: they were those that opposed the preaching of Paul, and his Ministry: and he describes those men what they were by divers Characters, but I'll treat of none but this, Who mind Earthly things.
