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.

Lord's Day February 19 2023


As I expected, we were a few less than the week before yesterday morning, though a similar small number in the evening. The morning passage was a very solemn one from Luke 13:22-30 and in the evening we looked at Job 13 and 14 following communion. The Cuban lady returned in the morning, which was good but our Iranians were thin on the ground for various reasons. Our Afghani friend is sticcking with us it seems, which is good. Not many peopl hung around for a cuppa in the morning
