Almost forgot to note my first midweek meeting back here in Childs Hill. People are still away so there were not a vast number present but we had a good time of sharing and praying preceded by a message from 1 John 3:1-3 reminding us that we are already God's children and in the future we will see Christ and be like him What an incentive to purity in our lives. What a great thing to meet with God's people.
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.
