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 June 18 2023


Last Lord's Day was a little different in that in the morning we had a visiting preacher and I only preached, following communion, in the evening. Eddie Webster finishes at the seminary next week and is considering what to do next. Unusually, we had a visiting American family in the morning. The man who came last Sunday evening returned with his mother in the morning. So, as is the usual case these days, we were a good number am and not so many pm.
