Earthly mindedness is akin to carnal mindedness. It is the carnal mind of unregenerate, natural man, which produces earthly mindedness motives and actions.
While the Scriptures describe both the carnally minded man and the earthly minded man similarly, and often use the terms interchangeably, there are some distinctions to be made.
The carnal mind may be viewed as the engine, or that catalyst of the earthly minded man. Like the carnal mind, the earthly mind is consumed with the temporal world, the lusts of the flesh,the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, being always desirous to satisfy the insatiable appetite of the carnal passions, which, as the Spiritual man knows, cannot be satisfied. Using additional principals set forth by the Puritan Jeremiah Burroughs we continue our examination of earthly mindedness, so that we may be duly warned and admonished unto every good work.
