It was my great privilege last Sunday night to be in South Wales. I was there to preach and to baptise my 15 year old nephew William, who became a Christian last summer, and with him a young couple who I had not met before, Anthony and Lizzie. The church was packed and it was a joy to see family members, old friends and members at Pontrhydyrun, etc. There must have been quite a few unbelievers there. You just hope something got through in the testimonies and the sermon, which you can hear here (no longer available).
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.
