Examples of vain glory in a Sentence
Watch over thy expenditure, for he who through vain glory spendeth uselessly what he hath on empty follies, will receive neither return nor praise from anyone.
It will be an ill day when our brethren take to bragging and boasting and call it 'testimony to the victorious Christian life.'
