Behind with this but a good day last Lord's Day. We began with a well attended communion and then I preached to a decent number on Genesis 3:4 which I was inspired to do by some recent reading. A local girl who has come the last four weeks was nit there, which was disappointing. Hope she is back soon. In the evening I took four texts (Isaiah 38:17 and 43:25; Micah 7:18, 19; Psalm 103:12) each privifding a striking picture of what it means to be forgiven. We were just into double figures.
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.
