I was in Kenwood House today and noticed this painting, which hasn't grabbed my attention before. A view of Dordrecht by Aelbert Cuyp (1620-1691) was painted some years after the famous Synod of 1618 in about 1652.
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.
