A bit behind here but last Lord's Day Eddie preached in the morning and I did in the evening with communion beforehand. We pursued the Behtlehem baby theme looking at Luke 2:19 and Matthew 1:21 and as usual the evening numbers were half the morning ones. Lots were ill and others were away too As ever, there was a new Iranian and also two visitors becausse our nearby Anglican Evangelical had no morning service. Our new friend from last week came again, which is good.
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.
