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.

Library lunch times


There will be lunch time meetings at the Evangelical Library on March 22 and May 17 on John Owen and Dr Lloyd-Jones starting at 1 pm. Do join us.

In the latter years at Chiltern Street the Evangelical Library held several lunch time meetings that were much appreciated. They want to hold similar meetings in the new premises and have planned two for March and May. The meetings will commence at 1 pm and last approximately 50 minutes. There will be some time allowed for questions and discussion. All members and friends are welcome. Sorry-no refreshments provided.

The details are as follows

Date: Monday March 22 speaker: Professor Paul Helm subject: The Trinity - a lesson from John Owen
Date: Monday May 17 speaker: Gary Brady subject: A few words about forewords - the shorter writings of Dr D M Lloyd-Jones

Do put these in your diary and spread the word. There is a very warm welcome to all.
