Spiritually Dead While Living — 1 Timothy 5:6 | Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Christian T-Shirt

This striking design brings to life the warning in 1 Timothy 5:6 — “But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.”
It’s a vivid reminder that worldly indulgence, though dazzling on the surface, leads only to spiritual death.

The central figure represents vanity and self-worship — adorned with a crown of roses whose beauty hides the thorns beneath. Her elegance and wealth mask the truth of her emptiness: eyes bleeding, spirit lifeless. Surrounding her are powerful symbols of sin and idolatry —

• Wine glasses and chalices echo gluttony and indulgence.

• Gold coins symbolize greed and the worship of wealth.

• The pineapple reflects lust, adultery, and modern sexual immorality.

• Skulls and pagan motifs, alongside the image of Asherah, serve as a chilling reminder of false gods and idols that promise fulfillment but bring destruction instead.

Even amid the glow of abundance, the scene is spiritually barren — a chilling portrayal of being alive in body but dead in spirit. While she sits among these signs of abundance and pleasure, everything that truly matters — faith, purity, and life in Christ — is absent. She embodies the truth that one can appear alive in body yet be spiritually dead while living.  This shirt challenges the culture of self-glorification and calls believers to reflect on where their devotion truly lies.

At Slinging Scriptures, our desire is that every person who wears one of our products not only enjoys the design, but also takes time to read the Scripture behind it.
