In "Simply Christian" he makes a comment that people who make statements like "they are so heavenly minded, they are no earthly good" are operating under a dualistic worldview. It is the people who are most truly heavenly minded that are the most earthly good. In other words, the people in Cash's song aren't very heavenly minded at all. Start preaching that to the choir.
