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.

Midweek Meeting June 20 2018


About 11 of us gathered last night. Again it was (just) a prayer meeting in this month of special mission. We sang a hymn, I read from 1 Kings 3 and said a little about Solomon and Christ. My main point was that God is more ready to give than we are to receive. We then gathered information together and started praying about 40 minutes in. All of us then prayed in turn for the next half an hour or so.
