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.

Visiting Dad 19

Last Tuesday I went down to South Wales to see my dad again. He continues to cling on. The journey seemed to be a waste of time in many ways as he was able to make little response. Perhaps if I had been in a better spiritual state of mind it would have seemed less useless.
