(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
All Commentaries on Philippians 3:18 Go To Philippians 3
Gaius Marius Victorinus
AD 400
There are two types of misunderstanding of Christ, or rather one class of two descriptions, who are enemies of Christ. For some in their carnal thoughts deride the cross of Christ, thinking of Christ merely as a man raised onto a cross…. These pay attention to nothing but the flesh. To them “their god is a belly” and their “glory is in filthiness.” These are the ones who “think earthly thoughts” and whose end is death. On the other hand, there are those who think of Christ only as a spirit. They do not think of him as incarnate or crucified. They too are enemies to the cross of Christ, having death as their end.
