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.

Errol Brown

I'm sure I passed Errol Brown (he of Hot Chocolate fame) at the bottom of our street an hour ago. He's supposed to be living in The Bahamas but I know he used to live locally so may be he was home visiting someone.

Do you think it was a miracle? :-)

I do believe in them, but for obvious reasons I won't pursue this line just at present.

I have to confess that this turned out not to be Erol but an African gentleman with litle English. Definite doppelganger though.
