There were several away yesterday, mostly due to illness but others are travelling and some we are not sure about. We had a visit from a Korean woman who was with us for six months learning English over 20 years ago. She came to lunch and it was nice to renew fellowship. I preached on a harvest theme in the morning from the end of Psalm 67. I was not due to preach in the evening but mys assistant was ill and so I took opportunity to preach on a verse I have been thinking about recenty - 2 Corinthians 5:16. A good day despite some discouragements.
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.
