The similar phrase 'Worldly Christianity' is one used by Bonhoeffer. It's J Gresham Machen that I want to line up most closely with. See his Christianity and culture here. Having done commentaries on Proverbs (Heavenly Wisdom) and Song of Songs (Heavenly Love), a matching title for Ecclesiastes would be Heavenly Worldliness. For my stance on worldliness, see 3 posts here.

Welwyn Series Software


I read on the Exile's blog here that

The Welwyn Bible Commentaries, published by Evangelical Press are now available for pre-order from Logos Bible Software. The set includes distinguished commentaries by Philip Eveson on Genesis and Leviticus, Gary Brady on Proverbs and the Song of Songs and Derek Thomas on Isaiah and Ezekiel.
I also hear that my Proverbs commentary is to be reprinted (with some minor corrections that I've been working on) next month.
(PS There are apparently 49 such volumes and close inspection of the above graphic suggests that they are not all there. One of the missing volumes is my fat Proverbs. Shame.)
PPS The pre-publication price is around £210 - around £4 a volume, which is not bad but a lot to fork out in one go.

Is that

(a) fat [n.] large in girth

or

(b) fat [n.] colloq. cool and incredible?

Or both?

Both, of course!
