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.

Great God of Wonders 2


Day 2 is a full day here in Northampton. We have papers 2, 3 and 4. We began with Robert Letham on Faith and reason: reflections on belief in God  which dealt with the various so called proofs for God and raised the question of whether that will help a person to know God. Again, we had a good discussion on this.
The second paper was from Tom Brand. Entitled The God of unchanging glory: from Nicaea to Hegel and back it was a good look at the matter of the impassibility of God. Again good discussion followed. It is great to be here and to enjoy the fellowship.
