Kenneth Copeland and his associates have been in Golders Green recently, at the former Hippodrome, where the El Shaddai church now meets. Large crowds have been queuing to hear them. A report gives some idea of it all here. Kenneth Copeland and his kind are a menace I fear.
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.

you only fear they are a menace? word faith is a heresy!!
Hi Gary,
Thanks for this - good to be able to pray specifically about what's going on in Golder's Green. The Guardian article is tragic - but at least a little heartening that the author differentiates between this aberration and true Christianity.
I'm currently reading John Weir on the Ulster awakening. What a far cry all this tawdry money-driven blasphemy is from the authentic hand of God at work among His people.
