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 December 31 2023
On the last day of 2023, it was good to be preaching the word once again. As on the previous Sunday, there were a good number present in the morning and a small congregation (of 8) in the evening. I took two new year texts - 1 Peter 4:3 and Proverbs 23:17, 18. Two African ladies (one from Malawi and one from Zambia) passing through turned up. There were one or two other visitors.
